- Newspaper Articles Madisonville receives grant money to use for
recycling By Cory Stark Posted by Kelsey Wheatcroft - MADISONVILLE,
KY (WFIE) - Going green in Madisonville. The city receives grant
money to use for recycling, meaning more places to drop off
reusable paper and plastics. This week the City of Madisonville
received a 60 thousand dollar state grant to improve it's recycling
program. The money will help buy equipment and expand the city's
recycling efforts to area schools. City Development Director Daron
Jordan says, "We are not in the school system right now, doing a
concerted effort. We have some work that we will start with several
schools that we will start this first year and help them recycle
some of their newspapers and magazines." The city will also
purchase new recycling bins for the recycling center. Hopkins
County has also recently expanded its recycling services. The
county now offers drop off boxes to recycle electronics at eight
county convenient centers. County Sanitation Director Roy Day says
the county saves 36 dollars for every ton of electronics not
shipped to the landfill. He says that could save thousands of
dollars per year. Madisonville officials do not anticipate any
revenue from its recycling program, however says it will have a
environmental impact. The city hopes to purchase new recycling
equipment within the next month.

- and News Articles Collection planned for hazardous household
waste By DAVIDBROCK dbrock@amnews.com 10:42 a.m. EDT, September 29,
2011 Donna Fechter has been recognized statewide for obtaining and
administering grant money to address litter, recycling and used
tires, but next month she will take on removing some of the most
harmful materials before they make it to a landfill or worse.
Fechter, the countys solid waste coordinator, obtained $16,250 to
use for a household hazardous waste collection for Boyle and Mercer
county residents, the first event of its kind to collect everything
from used brake fluid to various cleaning products. Its something
Fechter said is necessary because many of the substances end up
accumulating for years.
