Sanitary District No. 1 recently offered a special recycling
educational forum at Temple Hillel in North Woodmere. The
program was presented to update residents about the state-mandated
enhanced recycling program which went into effect in January.
Chairman Irving J. Kaminetsky gave an overview and introduced
District representatives and Assistant Superintendent George
Pappas who spoke about the details relating to the enhanced
rear-yard recycling program. An informative video and
slide show about the program was presented to the large group
of attendees. The presentation was followed by a question
and answer session.
“We appreciated the opportunity we had to provide information to Temple
Hillel members and local residents. It is our goal to give residents
all the information they need and to answer all of the questions they have
about our recycling program. The commissioners and staff of Sanitary
District No. 1 are committed to making the enhanced recycling program a model
for other municipalities to follow. The success of this program depends
on the support and participation of residents,” said
Irving J. Kaminetsky, Chairman, Sanitary District No. 1 board
of commissioners.
Residents of the District with questions
about recycling regulations, items to recycle or pickup schedules
should call the District’s Recycling Hotline (516)
239-3606 or go to the District‘s website sanitarydistrict1.com. Residents
can also e-mail the District at recycling@sanitarydistrict1.com to
ask questions and to sign up for community recycling updates.
The District’s enhanced recycling program is easy to
follow. All paper, cardboard, plastic cans and bottles,
and metal cans should be placed in the yellow recyclables-only
container the District provided. All recyclable materials
may be co-mingled. All other materials, including
glass, should be discarded with regular household waste.
