Recycling Capture and Setout Study – New Orleans KCI was contracted by TRP to conduct a comprehensive recycling study for The Recycling Partnership in New Orleans. The study consisted of two parts: a cart-based recycling capture study and recycling setout study. For the capture study, a KCI crew collected waste and recycling from the curbside carts from 110 randomly selected households across a representative cross-section of the city. The material was then sorted to assess the generation rate and composition of each material stream and calculate the capture rate of recycles. For the participation study, another KCI crew followed a recycling collection truck on five different days for the entirety of its route and counted the number of recycling carts that were set out and collected. This data was compared to the number of households on the route and the number of households subscribed for recycling to calculate the recycling setout rate. This study provided critical data on the performance of its recycling program and considerations as it transitions to universal recycling. Route Based Capture and Intervention Study - Peoria, Arizona KCI audited materials collected from specified routes serviced by the City of Peoria, Arizona. The data is intended to provide insight into contamination rates based upon various interventions performed on individual routes. This project included a pre-intervention study and a post-intervention study to determine impacts. TRP requested KCI sort and sample films and flexible materials as a part of their national priorities. Multi-family Based Capture and Intervention Study – Columbus, Ohio and SWACO KCI audited materials collected from specified multi-family routes serviced by the City of Columbus, Ohio and processed by the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO). The data provided insight into contamination rates based upon various interventions performed on individual properties as well as generation of material for multi-family residential units in the City overall. This project had a pre- intervention study and a post-intervention study to determine impacts. TRP also requested KCI sort and sample films and flexible materials as a part of their national priorities. Manatee County, Florida Contact: Chris Collins, Deputy Director – Utilities, (941) 792-8811 x5275 Waste Composition Studies KCI will be conducting a two-season study of the composition of solid waste delivered to the County’s Lena Road Landfill in 2024. The first study is expected to be completed in February 2024 and the second study to be completed in August or September 2024. The studies will assess waste from three generator sectors: single-family residential, multi-family residential, and commercial. KCI is responsible for all aspects of project planning, sorting activities, and report preparation. KCI conducted a similar set of studies in 2018-2019. This WCS will also include a visual audit of site cleanup and construction and Docusign Envelope ID: 1223AA0B-DDEC-4EBE-8FEA-427010558A5C
