Hazardous waste day set for September,

returns to twice a year

The Regional Board of Mayors on Monday approved Sept. 24 as the household hazardous waste cleanup day at the Delano Regional Transfer Station. Residents can bring household hazardous waste items, such as certain paints, batteries, aerosols, and pesticides, for disposal at the station, where a specialized contractor will collect it. More details of what is or isn’t accepted will be published at a later date. 

The RBOM also decided to bring back a date in spring for collecting such waste. Randy Gumm, who manages the transfer station, said it’s better to have the event twice a year, and that it keeps toxic materials out of the “waste stream.”

Mayors change meeting date

The Regional Board of Mayors, which consists of the mayors from Electric City, Grand Coulee, Coulee Dam, and Elmer City, on Monday changed their meeting date to the first Wednesday of each month at 4 p.m. Their next meeting is scheduled for Sept. 1.
