A report on how to revamp Ontario’s Blue Box program is now in the hands of the government.
Environment Minister Jeff Yurek says the report from special advisor David Lindsay was handed a week ago.
Lindsay spent the last six weeks meeting with municipal and industry reps.
Yurek says the recommendations contained will help transition recycling efforts to the responsibility of the producer.
Recycling rates haven’t changed much in the last 15 years while 30 per cent of what is collected is often sent to landfill.
