<br /> offers the ability to adjust Government Buildings Recycling Program to add materials and
<br /> adjust to market conditions in a more timely manner. We predict service will improve in
<br /> terms of collection schedule and number of materials collected. By adding items
<br /> collected at each building we can achieve a greater recycling rate in the government
<br /> office buildings at a lower cost.
<br /> The following tables compare current program costs with a projected cost associated with
<br /> the program envisioned by the Solid Waste Management Department for assumption of
<br /> the entire current governmental office recycling program. The ORS contract costs are
<br /> from the current budget and contract. The OCPW costs are provided by Terry Campbell,
<br /> Orange County Public Works Department's Solid Waste Manager. The Solid Waste
<br /> Management Department's cost estimates are for 40% of an employee's time and
<br /> associated collection vehicle and other costs associated with the proposed program.
