I agree it may not be a good idea since it may encourage illegal dumping, ie, I NO PAY - THROW IT ANYWHERE. I would like to share with you a plan I used elsewhere that guarantees , 100% recycling. Maybe a pilot project could be started at one of the -j drop-off sites to see how it works and how it would be accepted. If you are interested I would like to discuss it with you.

I have not heard from her to date. If zero waste is really the goal of Hawaii County, then removing 100% of the recyclables from the waste stream is a must. The plan I used elsewhere is very easy and inexpensive to implement and the users found it very rewarding. As I mentioned, maybe the County could start a pilot program at one of the transfer stations. If you have any interest in hearing about such a program I would proceed as you suggest. This inexpensive, easy to implement 100% recyclable program has the same characteristics as the TUTU hot water heater timer that I suggested become part of Bill 270, Building Code, inexpensive and very effective.
