RECYCLING AT THE TOWNSHIP AT RISK
Nockamixon is proud to offer a place for residents to recycle cardboard, plastics, and glass, but the program only works with your help. This year contamination of the recycling bins has become such an issue that the Township has repeatedly received additional contamination charges on top of the regular monthly fees. If a recycling bin is contaminated by garbage of any kind -- plastic bags, household garbage, styrofoam, etc. -- the entire bin becomes landfill material! So essentially, the Township is paying high fees just to add to landfills.
PLEASE, only recycle loose, clean, dry plastic and glass bottles and jars - DO NOT PUT THEM IN PLASTIC BAGS! Please flatten your cardboard. If the containers are full, do NOT dump your items in front of them. Take them home and wait for the containers to be empty. Remember:
- No plastic bags! Remove plastics and glass items from bags before placing them in the bin.
- No styrofoam or household trash!
- Flatten your cardboard boxes!
- No loose paper! Please put in a paper bag or cardboard box.
- When in doubt, throw it out.
GROUNDWATER UPDATE
A record has been set for continued precipitation-free days in October. This changes the Local Hydrologic Status, which monitors drought conditions, precipitation factor from "WARNING" to "EMERGENCY".
Local groundwater data (https://bntgroundwater.org/local-hydrologic-status-report) supports the continuation of a "NORMAL" status for this factor, at this time. This does not imply that the drought conditions across the region are of less concern as irrigation (watering) needs and fire threats exist. However, as it affects the groundwater level, approximately 60% of the groundwater recharge occurs from December through March. So rainfall, in the coming months, will be extremely important to future groundwater levels. Please continue to use water wisely.
