| Abstract/Contents: | "A yard waste reduction project was conducted in the City of DeLand from December 1993 through May 1994 with cooperation between the City and its waste management contractor, Industrial Waste Service, Inc. A section of the city consisting of about 180 residences was selected for its history of heavy contribution to the yard waste stream. The specific objectives of the project were: (1) to test the effectiveness of an educational campaign designed to greatly reduce the amount of yard waste placed at curbside and (2) to test the feasibility of curbside grinding of yard waste materials as a means of reducing energy consumed in hauling, processing, and disposing of such materials. These objectives were to contribute to the goal of reducing resources spent on handling yard wastes by significantly reducing the amount of plant material hauled from residential landscapes." |
