Executive Summary <br />Opportunities for improving curbside recycling in any given municipality are truly <br />program-specific. The City of Roseville has a very mature program and its pilot <br />program results may differ if compared to other programs. Cities need to decide the <br />optimal curbside recyclable materials collection program based on a range of issues <br />including cost, materials recovery levels, participation, and customer preference. <br />eco eatios <br />The Roseville pilot project can provide lessons for other recycling program managers <br />looking for opportunities to improve program performance. <br />The implementation of single-stream recycling is a significant, visible change <br />in residential recycling. Ramsey County municipalities should closely <br />examine the available results from this Roseville pilot and other research <br />projects referenced when evaluating alternative collection options such as <br />single-stream. Single-stream collection, larger bin capacity, and/or increased <br />frequency may foster an increase in quantities collected. <br />2. Ramsey County staff should continue policy discussions with the MPCA about <br />the definition of "recycling" as it relates to glass. Glass is presently not <br />considered recycling when used as landfill cover. <br />3. Municipalities should consider including RFP/bid and contract provisions for <br />contractors to measure the various types of contamination. If a municipality <br />elects to include such requirements, the municipality should also consider how <br />to monitor and enforce such provisions for measurement of contamination.. <br />B~~os DRAFT ES-7 <br />
