This plan proposes sites for can and bottle recycling in Massell,
Castle, East, and North residence quads. These sites were chosen
because they met fire, safety, and health standards and codes. They
are also centrally located.
The Massell site is in Shapiro lounge in the corner behind a roof
support. It is under a sprinkler, visible on two sides through
windows, and does not have carpeting. It does not impede travel in
case of emergency.
The Castle site is in the commons next to the northern exit. It is
under a sprinkler and has carpeting. It does not impede travel
through its adjoining doorway in case of emergency.
The East site is in the entrance lounge to Hassenfeld on the side
near Pomerantz. It is under a sprinkler and does not have carpeting.
It does not impede travel in case of emergency.
The North quad site is in AB lounge against the wall between the
water fountain and the bathroom. It is under a sprinkler and a heat
detector. It is visible to the quad and is not carpeted. It does not
impede travel in case of emergency.
Each site will include either metal or plastic cans not taller than
40 inches. These collection cans will have lids to increase both fire
and health safety and to decrease unwanted smell. The collection cans
will be lined with plastic bags and checked and maintained at least
every week. The sites will be used for collection of bottles and cans
only and not for newspapers. Newspaper collection by BURP! is not
currently operating, and members will be advised not to place
newspapers at these sites. The collection cans will also be clearly
marked as recycling of cans and bottles.
