RerMrt (Cont'dl
M eltemative method of providing e similu kfliW depot service wu examined. The
eltem�tive required the Region to aublieh e suitable drop off location in the
Ajax/Pickering area and to administer the receiving and hnuling of such wuta using
Regional staff. The materials collated would be delivered to the HHW facilities at the
Oshawa Transfer Swtion for wbuquent proauing and disposal. The total estimued
nnnual cost for titis savice is approximatdy SS0,000. The Region currendy manages the
mataiaL� collxted at the FIIiW depots at Scugog and Brcek Township Waste Facilities
in a similar manntt. ,
Signi6cam savings can be realized within the lte�on's existing operadon. For example,
about one half the paint raaved is given away at no chargc through the "Paint
Fxchmge", the Region raeives revawe for car batteries instead of being a cost, aerosol
cans aro procesaed before disposal tMu re,ducing the amoum of wute by about 75°.'0, and
otha matuials wch as unwam�d moror oil have less expensive disposal costs due to �he
voluma of materials regularly received by the Re�on.
The Region approached the owners of Durham Materids Recovery Facility (Df�tF),
who opaate a liwued waste transfer faciliry at 1220 Squires Beach Road in Pickering,
and roquated they wnsider the ux of their front parking lot azea as a drop off location
for local raidential household hazardous wasta. A copy of the lener to DhIItF
ouUining the details of the proposal is anached to this report.
Durham Materials Recovery Faaliry have egrced in prinaple, They heve offered the use
of their faciliry at no charge to the Region, subjat to the Re�on obtaining al� the
necesaary approvals. A copy of thar letter is elso attached. (t is recommended the
Region enter into an ae•xment with DIWtF for the use of thrir property for thae
Saturday HHW depot events
There is a bmefit in having a Ffl{W depot operation at a location where residenis can
elao dispose of their small loads of household waste. This was a concem of lowl
nwnidpal ua&'and thus this additional commiena should assist residrnts in the disposal
of tt�dr househo�d hazardous wastes. With effective advertising and promotion, as well
as featura in future local wute management and blue box recycling calendars, residents
should be well infortned,
