CAMPAIGNS AND INITIATIVES: <br />After a generous donation by the Wrap Recycling Action Program (W.R.A.P) sponsor, America's Plastic <br />Makers, SWDD has successfully placed loose plastic film receptacles at each of our five Customer <br />Convenience Centers (CCCs) and the main county landfill. We are experiencing good participation and <br />have accumulated over 20 bags, or approximately 446 pounds, of loose plastic film from these locations <br />in the first month alone. After a close audit, SWDD has concluded that we are experiencing a very low <br />contamination rate as well. We are also working closely with Dan Compas from the Rotary Club of Vero <br />Beach in hopes of getting more commercial businesses to recycle their loose plastic film. So far, the Marsh <br />Landing Restaurant, the Walking Tree Brewery, and Coastal Van Lines are all using film receptacles <br />donated by the Rotary Club of Vero Beach. These entities are bringing their full bags to one of the CCCs or <br />to the main landfill. Overall, IRC SWDD is excited to report a very successful first quarter in the W.R.A.P. <br />campaign. We are optimistic that this program will continue to grow, based on participation rates from <br />both the residential and commercial sectors. <br />- Page 2 - <br />4 <br />
