V. THE KEA`AU MODEL <br /> <br /> 5.1 The Model At A Glance <br /> This chapter describes the neighborhood recycling center model that evolved from the <br /> KRRC experience. The model now encompasses four classes of neighborhood recycling <br /> centers (NRCs), which are described briefly in Table 5.1. The model is described in more <br /> detail in the remainder of the chapter. <br /> During development of this model, residents repeatedly said they want NRCs to be fun <br /> places that they can take pride and ownership in. Residents envision NRCs as pleasant, <br /> attractive places in which they can socialize, hunt for discazded treasures, and contribute <br /> to the economic development of their communities. <br /> Table 5.1 NRC Features B Class <br /> Class <br /> Site Plan and Infrastructure: ' 1 2 3 4 <br /> Land azea minimum acrea a recommended 35 25 15 3 <br /> Safe in ess/e ess X X X X <br /> Paved internal roadwa s with s eed bum s as needed X X X X <br /> Paved azkin lots at ublic activi azeas X X X <br /> One stop convenience to off-load household rubbish and X X X X <br /> rec clables <br /> Crrade sepazation between offloading areas and bins/trailers to X X X X <br /> allow customers to throw materials down <br /> S azation of hea truck and residential vehicle traffic X X X X <br /> S azation of vehiculaz and edestrian traffic X X X X <br /> Landsca ed, visuall a ealin environment X X X X <br /> Paved surfaces under rolloff containers, and in azeas used for X X X X <br /> collectin and rocessin eenwaste <br /> Covered rubbish/household recyclables dropoff areas, to protect X X X X <br /> users and sensitive materials from sun and rain <br /> Scale house and vehicle scales X <br /> Greenwaste dm off zone X X X <br /> Scra metals dro off zone X <br /> Disaster debris zone X X <br /> Ent rise zone X <br /> Reuse center X X <br /> Education center X X <br /> Cotta e Indus incubation center X X <br /> D osit container redem tion center X X <br /> Restrooms for staff/customers X X <br /> Handwashin station X X X <br /> Electric service X X X <br /> Area li tin X X X <br /> Securi fencin and ates X X X X <br /> Customer Base and Staffin <br /> 26 <br /> <br />
