Please Note: The CVSWMD Board of Supervisors
has put its Recycling Depot Plan on hold while it engages
a consultant to study the best means of materials capture
and diversion from landfills. The CVSWMD continues to
operate and support its 9 recycling depots during this
time, but has put all major improvements or changes to
these facilities on hold until the completion of the planning
process. A consultant is
expected to be under contract in March 2007, and the planning
process is expected to last at least 6 months. Updates
will be available on our Web site. For more information,
contact District Executive Director, Donna Barlow Casey

The CVSWMD has been working to develop what we call the Equity of Services Project, or our Recycling Depot Plan. The purpose of the project is to increase the opportunities to reuse and recycle household materials in our member communities. “Equity of Services” means that all communities will have the same benefits of District membership as all other member
towns, and that residents are entitled to equal access to District programs and services.

Where We Are Now.
The District currently runs six recycling depots and financially supports another three depots in member towns that the towns own/operate. While residents with easy access to these facilities have been served well over the years, other communities have not had access to the same services. Here’s where the need for equity of services comes in.
Appliances, tires, and metals are all recycled at the CVSWMD recycling depots.
Where We're Going.
