Recycling Pilot Project for the Hazeltons starts up November 16.

A six month pilot project consisting of a pick-up service for large generators and a community drop-off depot starts up November 16. The depot will operate out of the U-Haul Yard in New Hazelton - a central location with good visibility just off Hwy 16 en route to Hazelton and the Kispiox Valley. The program will focus on paper products, including cardboard, boxboard, newspaper, office paper and paper giftwrap. Household batteries and cell phones will also be acccepted. The program represents a transition service while waiting for the start up of a Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) program for packaging in printed paper that comes into effect across BC in 2014.
