Consultation has concluded
With the help of the Regional Solid Waste Advisory Committee, comprised of community representatives and the input of other stakeholders, the Regional Board approved a Solid Waste Management Plan with a goal of 90% diversion of waste.
The Plan will now be forwarded to the Provincial Minister of Environment & Climate Change for approval. This approval process is expected to take four to six months. In the interim, a Plan Monitoring Advisory Committee will be established in place of the RSWAC to ensure that Plan implementation continues to meet the needs of the community.
