Annual Recycling Report Submitted to DEQ

Central Shenandoah PDC:
“The CSPDC submitted the 2013 recycling rate report for the Augusta County Service Authority on April 30th, 2014 to the Virginia Department of Environment Quality (DEQ). DEQ has recently concluded their review of the submitted report and has approved the region's recycling rate of 38.9%, a 5.6% increase from last year's rate of 33.3%. The Augusta County region is comprised of Augusta County, the cities of Staunton and Waynesboro, and the Town of Craigsville. The region is required to have a recycling rate of at least 25%.The recycle rate increase can be attributed to a 68% rise in reported recycled metals and a slight increase in most other categories.”
