Other issues of concern include ensuring that the implementation date of the program is <br />coordinated with the quarterly billing of residents. <br />Attachment B characterizes the collection method and associated pricing for each 'municipality <br />in Ramsey County. Note that no communities in Ramsey County presently offer single stream <br />recyclable materials collection programs. However, it is our understanding that in addition to <br />the City of Roseville, the City of Shoreview is presently evaluating single stream recycling as an <br />option. The information included in the table is based on program information reported directly <br />by individual municipalities. <br />Attachment C represents a concise presentation offering an independent assessment of single <br />stream recycling based on available data and the Project Team's experience. <br />Attachment D includes a set of supplementary tables characterizing single stream programs in <br />the Twin City Metropolitan Area. The individual tables provide data supporting the conclusions <br />and recommendations provided in the Po erPoint Presentation. Please note that additions <br />information related to other communities outside of Minnesota that have implemented single <br />stream recycling can be found in Appendix A of the American Forest and Paper Association <br />Recovered Fiber Quality Study completed by R. W. Beek in October of 2002. This report was <br />previously forwarded to you. <br />As apparent from the information provided above, single stream recycling is a relatively "never <br />approach to municipal recycling programs and, to date, limited independent analysis of this <br />approach has been conducted. with some additional opportunity to complete our evaluation, the <br />Protect Team can provide more detailed information and analysis if requested. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to provide these services. <br />1390 Corporate Center Curve, suite 305, St. Paul, MN 55121, Phone (651) 994 -8415} Fax (651) 994 -8396 <br />
