A
A
A
E
I
got
actually
a
pretty
pretty
good
significance
on
a
lot
of
times,
so,
as
I
guess
from
back
in
january,
we
started
working
I'll,
give
you
a
little
quick
history
on
this,
because
I'm
going
to
throw
some
acronyms
out
there
that
you
should
know
so.
The
town
hilton
head
has
a
what
it's
kind
of
a
civic
arm
called
the
greater
allen
council
that
they
use
as
a
recommendation
board.
Okay,
it's
just
private
private
citizens,
but
it's
got
quite
a
bit
of
good.
E
You
might
have
heard
it's
the
gic,
the
gic
back
in
2015
established
what
they
call
the
sustainability
advisory
committee
off
of
the
gac.
So
that's
the
sac
right,
so
the
sacs
mission
was
literally
to
advise
and
recommend
and
make
resolutions
towards
definitive
action
in
order
to
help
guide
the
town
of
hilton
head.
You
may
be
aware
that
I'm
hilton,
ultimately,
maybe
three
years
ago-
I
guess
it
was
three
years
I
was
on
the
board
for
the
one
plan,
their
comprehensive
plan.
E
Well,
this
this
plan,
they
had
a
pretty
substantial
sustainability
component
to
it.
If
you
ever
get
a
chance
to
read
something,
you
should
take
a
look,
but
they
did
a
really
good
job
at
actually
addressing
some
of
the
sustainability
concerns.
They
did
it
from
the
public's
input.
So
it's
very
nice
so
that
really
actually
put
things
in
motion
so
we've
been
working,
I
sit
on
the
sustainability
advisory
committee
and
we've
been
working
to
help
guide
any
of
those
actions
based
on
the
plan.
E
The
comp
plan
would
help
guide
the
town,
okay,
that
was
kind
of
an
issue.
So
with
all
this,
going
on
with
the
landfill
understanding,
there's
a
correlation
between
the
town,
obviously
you
know
and
the
waste
and
the
landfill
contracts
and
the
recycling
all
that
stuff.
That's
been
a
big
initiative
of
the
sustainability
advisory
committee
so
effective
about
two
months
ago.
After
many
readings
and
resolutions,
the
greater
island
council
got
full
approval
from
the
town
as
source.
E
As
a
recognition
of
the
resolution
and
I'll
read
the
resolution
to
you.
The
resolution
recommending
hilton
head
town,
council
and
beaufort
county
council
work
together
in
the
development
of
a
long-term
agreement
that
will
secure
the
landfill
and
recycling
needs
of
hilton
head
island.
Beaufort
county,
whereas
beaufort
county
landfill
is
nearing
the
end
of
its
lifespan
and
the
current
landfill
operation.
Erlang
operating
agreement
with
waste
management,
disincentivizes
recycling
and
whereas
the
landfill
operating
contract
is
charming
in
2025.
E
Commercial,
solid
waste
producers
are
required
to
pay
a
disposal
and
recycling
costs
themselves.
Exploring
new
recycling
alternatives
would
be
finance
financially
advantageous
for
the
town
and
beaufort
county.
Now,
therefore,
the
greater
island
council
of
hilton
head
island
and
buford
strongly
encourage
the
hilton
head
town,
council
and
beaufort
county
county
council
to
take
a
leadership
position
together
to
begin
negotiation
with
current
refill
operator
and
other
potential
landfall
recycling
operators.
E
The
proactive
development
of
a
long-term
agreement
that
will
secure
the
landfill
and
recycling
needs
of
the
hilton
island
in
beaufort
county
that
was
accepted
and
adopted
by
the
town
and
so
far
they
have
now
set
forth.
I've
had
meetings
with
a
couple
of
representatives
from
the
town
about
and
more
engagement,
and
I
think
you
guys
may
have
been
a
part
of
it
as
we're
starting
to
meet
with
with
cindy
on
a
more
frequent
basis
to
really
kind
of
hopefully
push
this
these
initiatives
and
get
these
things
moving
forward.
E
So
there's
actually
a
second
resolution
that
addresses
the
specifics.
I
can't
speak
to
the
to
it
right
now,
but
that
that
should
be
going
through
the
approval
process,
which
will
address
the
very
specific
needs
of
what's
needed.
It's
a
lot
of
the
stuff
we're
already
kind
of
looking
at
the
murph,
the
beaufort
club.
You
know
you
know
getting
the
recycling
first
single
hauler,
that's
on
the
table.
I
can
tell
you
that
the
town
is
interested
in
looking
back
at
that
once
the
recycling's,
fixed
and
stuff,
like
that,
so
the
next
resolution.
E
Well,
the
nice
thing.
Is
it
they're
not
going
unheard?
It's
it's
nice
to
actually
have
some
energy
behind
this
and
the
town
is
taking
this,
this
sort
of
stuff
very
serious.
So
that's
it
what
we
should
do
as
a
committee
I
mean
you're,
obviously
you're
on
the
committee
you're
already
doing
something
but
wonder
what
else
we
could
do.
I
think
you
know
really
they
get
a
lot
of
their
information
from
what
we
do
in
this
committee.
E
B
E
B
Mistake,
oh
yeah,
sure,
yes,
but
yeah.
Well,
you
got
three
totally
different
animals
right
on
hilton
head
yeah,
you
got
timeshare,
you
got
restaurants
and
you
got
residential
and
they're
totally
different
operations
in
different
times.
It's
exactly
right!
Yeah.
It
was
a
great
learning
opportunity
and
they
they.
E
E
You
know
you
can
learn
and
grow
and
make
success,
because
I
think
we
all
agree
that
a
single
hall
getting
some
of
these
trucks
off
the
road
and
having
a
single
hauler
system,
making
it
cheap
and
effective
and
recycling
more
all
those
things
are
what
we're
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish,
and
not
that
I
think
couldn't
have
been.
I
thought
it
was
a
blessing
to
have
that
contract
because
you
look
at
it
now.
You
can
make
something
that
makes
sense.
I.
B
E
E
B
Plan
and
if
the
if
the
town
buys
into
it,
hopefully
we'll
have
some.
No,
I
think
that
really
they
they
should
look
at
it
as
three
totally
separate
problems
and
not
try
to
approach
it
as
a
single
problem
with
three
solution:
students
hack
away
at
one
at
a
time
yeah.
There
will
then
we'll
start
delving
into
that.
Hopefully
you
know,
and
I'm
excited,
because
that's
this
is
the
farthest
the
town
has
come,
especially
we've
been
talking
about
a
single
wall.
B
A
E
Component
of
this-
and
we
talked
about
this
when
we
looked
at
a
single
haul
or
five
single
holders
across
the
board,
if
you,
if
you
don't
fix
this,
this,
the
recycling
side
of
this
you're
disincentivizing
it
and
any
contract
you
go
in,
is
going
to
be
skewed
because
of
that
and
you're
going
to
continue
to
disincentivize
recycling.
So
the
the
murph
is
really
the
first
step,
and
that
actually
says
that
in
that
resolution.
B
E
D
So
the
first
thing
I'm
excited
to
announce
that
beaufort
county
was
recognized
nationally
last
week
at
the
national
association
of
county
conference
in
colorado
for
the
implementation
of
the
decal
system.
We
are
up
for
another
award
next
week
on
august
3rd
from
the
south
carolina
association
of
counties
conference,
and
I
will
be
representing
hollywood.
D
D
D
County
pays
for
all
residential
household
garbage
disposal,
both
residential
curbside
and
collection
centers.
The
disposal
savings
were
122
526
in
fiscal
year,
so
the
total
savings
for
both
hauling
and
disposal
is
305,
227.,
okay,
quick
question,
so
the
disposal
costs
have
gone
down
and
that's
out
of
the
convenience
centers.
E
D
D
D
D
D
D
Well,
cindy
and
victoria
did
do
a
field
trip
out
to
look
at
one
of
the
merfs
and
we
are
working
on
setting
up
a
field
trip,
maybe
for
the
board
to
go
out
and
see
one
of
the
mercy
in
ridgeland.
If
that's
something
I
know
we
had
emailed,
and
that
was
something
that
I
really
would
like
to
yeah
just
to
kind
of
see.
B
E
This
but
they
scale
the
trucks.
So
the
truck
knows
where
it
came
from.
You
know
it
came
from
x,
you
know
whatever
and
they'll
scale.
Oh
okay,
you
know
yeah,
it's
always
cold.
Well,
no,
it's
one
one
truck:
they
pull
one
load
and
they
take
one
load
from
you
know
the
hilton
head
recycling
center.
Take
it
scale
it
dump
it
scale
off
and
go
so
as
long
as
they're
keeping
their
records
which
waste
management.
You
know,
they're
they're,
pretty
forthright
about
that
stuff.
They're
keep.
A
B
Really
doing
versus
yeah,
okay
they're
not
going
ahead
and
holly
course
they're,
not
tracking
that
information
last
week
from
them
about
how
much
are
you
actually
wasting?
How
much
is
waste
and
how
much
is
actually
rising?
Okay,
yeah
yeah,
it's
I've
been
there
once
and
there
was
so
much
stuff
stored
outside
inside
no
they're
working
on
dollars
and
market,
and
so
the
county,
really
I
I
perceive
doesn't
have
a
clue
what
is
truly
recycled
as
opposed
to
just
transferred.
D
D
A
Is
there
any
kind
of
like
projections
or
thought
being
put
into
the
fact
that
you
know
if
the
economy
goes
down?
Less
people
are
going
to
we've
kind
of
implemented
the
system
as
the
economy
was
getting
better,
so
people
were
more
likely
to
pay
the
you
know
20
25
bucks
a
month
to
have
the
curbside.
Do
we
think
that
these
numbers
could
alter
if
people
decide
that's
not
worth
it
anymore,.
D
E
B
E
B
B
Look
at
it
with
you
know,
markets
and
stuff,
but
yeah
it's
a
business.
You
know
it's
definitely
a
business
and
you
have
to
you
know.
When
you
look
at
it,
you
got
to
be
nimble
and
you
got
to
work
the
system
and
pay
attention
to
it,
but
you
can
do
both
you
can
you
can
recycle
more
and
make
money,
but
you've
got
to
be
real
nimble
to
be
able
to
do
it.
B
E
Back
to
you
know
that
goes
back
to
the
sustainability
campus
and
the
actual
vision
behind
the
sustainability
campus
is
not
in
order
to
recycle
more,
you
can
create
work,
that's
fantastic!
Great.
Okay,
that'll
solve
one
part
of
it,
but
you
need
manufacturers
nearby
to
limit
your
shipping,
your
shipping
cost
and-
and
that's
that
is
what
the
sustainability
campus
was
was
designed
to
incorporate,
was
all
aspects
of
that
transport
and
to
buffer
yourself
against
as
much
of
those
variables
as
you
can.
E
Shipping
is
a
big
one,
but
if
you
can
bring
manufacturers
close
like
glassworks
right
that
just
made
glass
recyclable,
I
mean
that's
a
great
story.
If
you
can
work
with
the
development
companies
to
bring
in
or
the
economic
development
companies
organizations
to
bring
in
manufacturing,
to
where
you
can
use
this
material
that
that
should
really
ultimately
be
the
end
goal
in
order
to
protect
recycling
markets.
You
know
a
company
like
mine
is
what
I
do
I'm
looking
at
making
something,
because
I
need
to
insulate
myself.
E
D
Okay,
so
electronics,
our
next
event
is
august
27th,
the
county
currently
contracts,
our
electronic
recycling
events
with
powerhouse
out
of
california
north
carolina,
beginning
january,
1st
2023
south
carolina
has
initiated
a
manufactured
clearinghouse
program
that
will
handle
collection
from
counties
that
opt
in
by
august.
1
2022
beaufort
county
will
continue
to
be
serviced
by
powerhouse
for
the
upcoming
august
27th
event,
both
at
the
bluffton
location
and
the
shanklin
location
of
buford,
as
well
as
a
final
contracted
event
on
december
10th.
After
that
time,
the
clearinghouse
program
will
determine
dates
and
vendors
for
recycling.
C
Not
going
to
have,
we
won't
know
once
the
clearinghouse
takes
over.
So
what
it
is
is
it's
a
program.
It's
a
company
where
they're
coming
in
and
they're.
You
know
basically,
your
samsung
lg,
all
these
companies
that
make
electronics
they're
kind
of
putting
that
burden
on
recycling
to
them,
to
where
they're
kind
of
running
it
now
and
will
determine,
like,
I
just
said
the
dates
and
locations
of
pickups
for
each
campus
yeah.
C
D
We
received
two
hack
grants
for
fiscal
year,
23
out
of
four
possible
applications.
The
solid
waste
general
recycling
award
will
help
with
recycling
education
and
the
used
all
award
continues
to
support
the
maintenance
of
clean
oil
and
filter
recycling
operations
at
the
centers.
No
waste
hire
awards
were
made
this
year
due
to
increased
contractor
funding.
D
B
And
submit
a
stronger
application
for
fiscal
year,
24.,
hey
angel,
I
think
I
board
it
to
cindy,
but
I'll
go
back
and
check,
but
they
I
have
some
information
on
some
recycling
grants
that
you
can
get
through
the
infrastructure
bill.
There's
going
to
be
a
lot
of
that
available,
it
might
be
something
that
you
guys
want
to
look
into
as
far
as
securing
some
federal
grants,
so
I'll
go
back
through
and
and.
D
Caroline
was
unable
to
join
us
today,
but
she
did
provide
some
notes
for
the
adopt-a-highway
program.
Through
june
30th
3
320
bags
of
litter
were
removed.
Palmetto
pride
continues
to
be
supportive
of
our
program.
An
educational
rack
card
was
developed
and
it
is
available.
Today
we
have
had
two
ads
on
the
electronic
billboard
on
highway
170
in
oak
tee,
for
the
campaign
to
reduce
roadside
litter,
solid
waste
and
recycling
also
has
a
new
facebook
page,
and
we
continue
to
post
adopt-a-highway
group
photos
to
say
thank
you
for
their
volunteer
efforts.
D
D
C
Grant
in
this
time,
but
also
a
lot
of
fun,
we
got
our
kayaks
wrapped
up
to
match
the
bubble.
Works,
munson
boat,
just
keep
our
waters
clean.
So
we
got
that
out
a
lot
of
kids
love,
rerun,
he's
literally
becoming
a
household
name
like
we're,
driving
the
truck
and
the
kids
are
going
crazy.
They
know
who
who
he
is
the
parents
do
so
that's
good
for
our
education
and
we
just
got
out
with
beaver
county
started.
C
An
internal
group
amongst
employees
called
emerging
leaders
and
they
hosted
a
kayak
cleanup
last
month
where
we
were
able
to
get
the
kayaks
out
with
them.
So
we
look
forward
to
using
them
a
lot
more
they've
helped
us
in
the
past
when
we
first
got
them
with
tvs
that
were
in
ditches
that
were
full
of
water.
So
they
worked
out
great
for
that,
and
that's
it
for
me
today.
So
thank
you
all
right.
I'm
sure
right
he's
an
opel
vlogger.

the
solid
waste
management
plan,
some
language
will
remain
consistent
with
the
state
once
updates
are
drafted.
We
will
bring
this
before
the
board
and
then
on
to
public
facilities.
Committee.

Okay,
the
next
thing-
reorganization,
solid
waste
and
recycling-
has
merged
back
with
public
works,
effective
july
1st
2022
we
will
remain
an
enterprise
fund.
Neil
decides
the
public
works
director
and
served
on
the
board.
As
a
representative
of
district
1
in
the
past,
dave
wilhelm
has
returned
to
public
works.
As
the
deputy
director
victoria
hoffman
has
moved
from
from
recycling
coordinator
in
solid
waste
and
recycling
to
project
coordinator
in
public

her
position
has
been
posted
in
field.
D
D
E
We
have,
or
we
should
probably
make
sure
we
have
enough
time
to
review
that,
and
that
may
be
an
opportunity
to
look
at
wording
and
language
while
you're
hitting
the
ordinance.
I
don't
I
don't
know,
but
if
that's
the
case,
then
we
probably
need
to
make
sure
we
set
enough
time
to
really
look
at
that.
It
is
the
ordinance
which
you
know.
E
B
All
of
our
penalties-
and
maybe
even
some
of
the
ordinance,
mirror
state
statute,
so
it
simplifies
it
for
the
court
process.
You
know
a
lot
for
the
judges
and
the
prosecutors
as
well.
So
you'll
see
that
in
there.
But
it
sounds
like
something
we
probably
need
to
look
at
good.
You
know
not
just
gloss
over
and
well,
I
wonder:
do
you
think
they'll
use
the
state
terminology?
B
E
B
E
B
But
terminology
that's
been
used.
Historically,
I
was
led
to
believe
that
they're,
looking
at
no
single
stream
as
if
it
were
coming
from
the
convenience
centers
and
not
from
a
co-mingled
vehicles,
dropping
cardboard,
glass
plastics,
and
I
really
think
that
has
to
be
clarified
in
the
solid
waste
plan,
because
it's
a
world
that
to
me
it's
a
world
of
difference.
E
E
E
Your
other
scenario
is
dual
stream.
You
know
single
or
sort,
you
know,
source
separated
type
of
material
where
you
still
have
to
clean
it.
That's
that's
like
that.
Takes
actually
equipment
things
like
that
that
different
lines
and
different,
it's
actually
an
expansion
on
the
service
than
just
taking
single
streams,
not
a
good
answer.
Let
me
tell
you,
I
don't
like
it,
but
it's
your
to
frame
the
plan
and
single
stream
and
then
move
away
from
that
is
much
easier.
I
think.
B
B
E
B
E
Glass,
that's
that's
separated
material.
I
do
think,
though,
it's
a
shame-
and
this
is
one
of
my
my
gripes
with
waste
management,
saying
what
you're
saying
is
they
take
that
stuff
and
dump
it
and
then
commingle
it
back
and
then
ship
it
to
raleigh
to
then
go
back
and
be
separated
again,
which
is
just
a
tragedy
really,
but
some
were
banned
for
it.
B
E
B
B
E
E
That's
the
that's,
not
you
know,
and
they
used
to
actually
have
if
you
go
when
you
go
there,
it's
very
interesting.
If
you
look
through
the
history
of
that
place,
they
used
to
have
days
and
they're
still
they're,
still
full
of
stuff
that
they
haven't
sold
yeah
these
days.
They
had
some
sort
of
sorting
line
at
one
point
and
they
had
balers
and
they
had
stuff
like
that.
They
had
equipment
there
at
one
point
and
then
you
know
if
you
talked
to
reggie
who's
the
tenant,
there
he's
been
there
forever.
E
Really
nice
guy,
it's
just.
They
just
stopped
investing
the
markets,
tank,
china
that
whole
thing
and
they
stopped
investing.
And
now
that
you
know
we
got
a
kind
of
a
sweetheart
contract
where
listen
that
bill
gets
paid
by
one
person
going
to
the
landfill
they're
not
going
to
put
money
into
that
unless
they're,
unless
their
hands
are
forced
in
some
way
you
know
in
their
business.
Why
would
they?
You
know
I'm
ashamed,
but
it
is
interesting.
I
mean
it's,
but
now
it's
just
literally
a
tipping
floor.
I
mean
it
goes.
E
You
saw
it
if
you
see
it's
a
pile
and
they
scrape
it
off
and
pick
it
up
and
put
it
into
a
big
container.
They
I
think
they
shared
shipping.
I
think
that's
what
they're
doing
these
are
all
yeah,
recycle,
america
or
some
facility.
I
believe
it
goes
there.
You
know
a
lot
of
it.
You
know
some
of
it
who
knows,
but
when
it
goes
into
that
truck,
I
believe
it
goes
there,
but
your
point's
well
made.
I
mean.
Who
knows
how
many
lows?
I
guess
that's
that's
true.
B
Having
some
might
some
idea
of
maybe
total
process
than
on
a
percentage
of
what
came
in
on
a
period
of
time,
you
know
proportionate
to
you
know:
here's
the
problem
we
have
in
hilton
head,
you
know
and
the
guys
do
it
all
the
haulers.
They
they
throw
a
good
recycling,
but
you
know
there's
about
seven.
E
Layers
of
reasoning,
why
that
occurs,
and
you
know
at
what
point
the
haulers
get
beat
up
quite
a
bit
and
at
what
point
is
the
hauler's
responsibility
to
train
people
to
not
contaminate
to
report
to
not
take
the
material?
That's
that's
where
the
argument
has
to
become,
but
also
from
the
county
level.
E
There's
no
standard,
you
know
of
what's
accepted
and
what's
not
you
know,
voice
management,
I
don't
think,
does
a
good
job
managing
that
standard,
making
sure
that
you
drop
it
it's
inspected
and
things
like
that,
and
so
you
know
you
go
to
a
place
like
sun
city.
Well,
you
know
you've
got
a
row
of
100
houses.
It's
only
going
to
take
six
of
those
houses
to
screw
up
an
entire
load
right.
E
Well
now
you
got
the
county
paying
the
bill
if
it's
contaminated,
so
you
know
what
I
may
not
invest
the
time
to
you
know
to
train
or
to
not
take
I'll
just
let
the
process
roll,
throw
the
throw
it
in
the
trash
and
then
keep
going.
You
know
like
I
promise
you.
If,
if
ev
you
know,
you
should
get
a
letter
probably
or
a
tag.
E
B
E
We
don't
have
a
trash
truck
right,
I
don't
have
a
trash
truck.
I
can't
take
your
trash
and
my
obligation
is
to
not
only
you
right,
but
it's
to
you
to
you
to
you
to
you
to
every
single
person.
That's
in
that
load.
That
has
actually
done
a
good
job.
So
we
tag
we
don't
take.
We
do
all
sorts
of
stuff,
but
we
inspect
can
by.
Can
I
also
don't
do
dumpsters
because
of
that,
because
I
can't
inspect
a
dumpster.
E
I
don't
like
dumpsters,
they
get
contaminated
at
the
bottom
level
and
that
it'll
blow
an
entire
load,
and
so
there
are
definitely
ways-
and
you
know
our
business
is
recycling.
So
that's
that's
our
integrity.
If
we're
not,
if
we're
not
giving
feedback,
you
know,
but
these
other
companies,
you
know,
there's
no
rules
to
say
you
know,
that's
something.
We
should
all
look
at
eventually,
once
we
can
control
you
can
control
the
murph.
You
can
create
the
standards.
E
Okay,
now
you
got
county.
I
don't
care
what
hauler
it
is.
Everybody
buys
in
county
county
in
beaufort
county
to
these
standards.
It's
number
one
number
two
lids
off
blah
blah
blah
blah
blah.
You
know
then
you've
got
you
can
take
control
of
it.
You
can
market
it,
you
can
train,
you
can
educate,
you
know,
becomes
much
easier
and
then
you
can
hold
the
count
of
the
haulers
accountable
once
they
vote
that
load.
You
hold
them
accountable.
It'll,
be
amazing
how
quick
they
come
to
the
plate
right
now.
It's
a
free
fall.
