HAVE QUESTION ABOUT RECYCLING? THIS FIELD TRIP IS FOR YOU!
Sustainable NCW is organizing a tour of Waste Management’s SMaRT recycling center in Spokane. The tour is set for Wednesday September 21 from 1:00 to 3:00 PM. Attendees need: closed toe shoes, full-length pants and hair tied back. If you would like to attend this tour, please contact Rick Edwards (509-885-0337 or watermite@hotmail.com).
The Spokane Materials and Recycling Technology (SMaRT) Center opened in 2012, paving the way for convenient, efficient collection of mixed recyclables from tens of thousands of businesses and residences in Washington, Idaho and British Columbia. Waste Management invested $18 million in this single stream recycling facility located on an 8-acre site in Spokane. The SMaRT Center can process 100,000 tons of recyclables per year and is the centerpiece of a regional strategy aimed at dramatically reducing waste and boosting recycling in the area. The 62,000 square foot, “single-stream” facility allows residents and businesses to recycle a broader assortment of materials, resulting in dramatically higher recycling and landfill diversion rates.
