9/13/2016 In EXCLUSIVE Interview, Recycling Advocates Say Mayor Ballard’s Radical Plan Will Make Recycling Worse! | AM 1310: The Light PLAY WITH SOUND AMOS PODCAST Home In EXCLUSIVE Interview, Recycling Advocates Say Mayor Ballard’s Radical Plan Will Make Recycling Worse! 2 years ago Amos Brown ... Leave a comment Indianapolis may be the 11th largest city in the country and Indy may be trying to be a leader in progressive things like bike lanes and sustainability, but when it comes to recycling e퐀orts, Indianapolis ranks way down the list of major cities. And a radical proposal by Mayor Greg Ballard could cause recycling to become even more di퐀icult. That’s according to the Executive Director of the Indiana Recycling Coalition Executive Director Carey Hamilton. She appeared on AԸernoons with Amos to express concern about a Ballard Administration plan to radically change recycling e퐀orts. Currently, households pay a fee and get a blue and yellow container to place their recyclables in. But Mayor Ballard’s looking at a new plan where a company, Covanta, that currently operates Indianapolis’ main incinerator facility on South Harding Street would collect all garbage including recyclables like glass and plastic containers and dump them all together and extract the recyclables out. Carey Hamilton vehemently disagrees with that approach. Carey Hamilton, Indiana Recycling Coalition In her interview with Amos, Hamilton contents that major companies like WalMart, Coca Cola and others that use huge quantities of recyclable materials are finding it economically in their best interest to use pure recycled materials. The Ballard plan would reduce the access to those materials and drive up the cost to those companies. According to Hamilton, private companies are willing to subsidize the costs of recycle containers for Indianapolis 350,000 residential households. Something that could finally make recycling more acceptable and popular to Indianapolis residents. Hamilton and the Indiana Recycling Coalition vehemently disagree with the City’s proposed plan. Including the fact that the plan could be adopted without any City-County Council review.
