Council invited comment on Council’s draft Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan 2016-2024 during April-May 2016, reviewed feedback and amended the Plan.
Council adopted the amended Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan in June, 2016. Please see the final Plan in the document library to the right of this screen and more details in the news feed below.
The plan spells out Council’s waste reduction and recycling priorities for the next eight years, including targets set by the state and the community jury’s recommendations for reducing organic waste sent to landfill.
These recommendations – including a future mandatory green waste bin service – are an important part of Noosa's long-term Towards Zero Waste Strategy.
TheWaste Reduction and Recycling Plan 2016-2024 looks at how Council goes about reducing the volume of waste produced and how to increase the amount of waste diverted from landfill, such as by composting and recycling, and how it tackles littering and illegal dumping.
In some cases Council is already exceeding state government waste diversion targets, such as construction and demolition waste where it is already diverting up to 99% from landfill to recycling.
There is still work to be done to reduce recyclable and organic material in the domestic waste stream and this plan will help guide Noosa's journey towards zero waste.
