L°t-P."1- a 4)u-A-1-4). 12412-61-1- <br /> FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS <br /> 1. Organized collection may reduce the costs of residential refuse collection by increasing collection <br /> efficiencies. Additional study is needed to determine if organized collection may benefit <br /> commercial and industrial waste generators. <br /> 2. Organized collection reduces adverse environmental impacts when more than one hauler services <br /> a given area or provides the same type of collection service. <br /> 3. Organized collection does not inherently increase participation in recycling or other abatement <br /> programs. It can be implemented in ways that would help to achieve the abatement objectives of <br /> the Solid Waste Management Guide/Policy Plan. <br /> 4. Organized collection cannot substitute for waste designation by the county, but can complement <br /> it. <br /> 5. Municipalities and towns have adequate authority to organize collection of residential refuse. <br /> 6. Organized collection of residential refuse may be a net benefit to solid waste management <br /> because it may reduce costs and environmental impacts; help abatement programs; and improve <br /> information about waste generation, composition, and abatement. <br /> 7. There is no need for a regional system for implementation of organized collection. However, <br /> individual communities should consider the potential benefits of organized collection. <br />
