The Olympia City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to support a proposed Thurston County ban on plastic bags at grocery stores and a small fee on paper bags.
The council acted after hearing a spate of reasons for the ban from Ron Jones of the city Public Works Department. Only 59 percent of residents recycle the bags, he said, adding that they cannot be recycled at the curb, like most other recyclables. Many end up in curbside recycling anyway, so they get tangled up in the recycling machinery.
Jones also concluded that voluntary measures for recycling plastic bags aren working and that bags become litter and affect the environment.
made from nonrenewable resources, he said.
can recycle them at the curb. That kind of a big issue. Thurston County solidwaste advisory committee,coach outlet online, which includes representatives of all the county cities,voted unanimously in November to support a ban, said Councilman Nathaniel Jones.
Jones, a member of that committee, said we found was a very compelling case that we need to change business as usual. He said Thurston County residents go through about 90 million bags per year and that they gum up equipment at a cost of thousands of dollars a year.
they contaminate our recycling process,Jones said.
Seven cities in the state already ban plastic bags: Bainbridge Island, Bellingham, Edmonds, Issaquah, Mukilteo, Port Townsend and Seattle. Nathaniel Jones said Thurston County proposed ban is consistent with those bans.
A county survey found that 49 percent of respondents favored a ban. But Olympia Councilwoman Karen Rogers questioned whether those respondents were chosen at random or selfreported their answers. Jones said people selfreported .
He said fees on paper bags have ranged from five to 10 cents per bag in areas that have adopted bag bans. He said the Northwest Grocers Association supports such a ban if a small fee is applied to paper bags. But a group of independent grocers, the Northwest Food Association,has some concerns,he said.相关的主题文章:
