Gtill,
Check your email... just sent you a question irrelevant to Punaweb.
In other Wheelabrator news today:
"Recycling may take on a new look for residents of Concord, Laconia, Franklin and 24 surrounding New Hampshire towns.
The board governing the cooperative that handles trash for the communities has approved moving forward with a plan to build a state-of-the-art recycling facility. The plant would be built in Concord or Franklin and would use "single-stream" technology. Instead of sorting plastics, glass and paper, residents can put all recyclables in the same bin and it will be sorted at the facility.
The cooperative's contract with Wheelabrator for trash disposal runs out next year, and fees are expected to go up dramatically. The single-stream facility was proposed as a way to increase recycling and reduce trash costs. Cooperative members would receive about $10 per ton that they deliver and would share in revenue.
The board voted Tuesday night in Bow to authorize the cooperative to get a purchase-and-sales agreement on one of three properties on the cooperative's short list."
One more blow to Wheelabrator in favor or recycling.
-------
Lower your expectations and be ready for anything.
