New Resource Center Construction Well Underway

Construction of the new resource center is well underway, and Phase I should be completed by April. The center will contain discrete areas for secondary sorting of inorganic waste for recycling, conventional composting, vermicomposting, and research and development. In this latter section, we will be looking at high-value ways of extracting value from our waste streams, preferably right here within our community.

The fuel briquetting experiments are one example of our R&D efforts; studying the feasibility of replicating Goonj’s Not Just a Piece of Cloth program for the reuse of scrap cotton from local clothing companies is another.

Stay tuned for news of the opening!
