NONE are put with the trash. Since MOSA stopped running the recycling, people have had the impression that materials they separate from the trash are not recycled. When people were asked to commingle different types of containers together, people again thought that it was because we were not recycling them. Such changes in the way we separate what is accepted are inevitable because of the constantly changing recycling market. By misquoting my statement, The Daily Star has done Otsego County a great disservice.
People are very supportive of recycling.
It is still better environmentally and economically to avoid sending recyclable materials to landfills. The Otsego County Board has been supporters of the Take Title bills that were previously presented at the state Legislature. In 1999, the Board has not passed a resolution supporting the most recent bill that was referenced at Wednesday's meeting in Albany because it has only just been introduced in March 1999. Marybeth B. Vargha Cooperstown Vargha is the Otsego County Solid Waste Coordinator in Cooperstown. This caused a stir among Oneonta and the outlying areas, especially with the parents, I believe.
