Diverting w aste from landfills
Develop regional organics management facilities(4% additional diversion potential) Enhance disposal bans (4%) Modify demolition and building permit process (4%) Provide wood drop-off facilities (3%) Expand take-back/deposit programs
(e-waste and small appliances)(2%) Expand plastics collection (1%)
3. The Firs t 3 Rs: Reduce, Reuse , Recycle

Organics Management Facilities
To process: Yard waste Commercial waste
Residential waste Paper and paperboard
Decrease organic waste disposed of at landfills Review organics technologies and potential
sites

4. The 4 th R: Materials and Energy Recovery
Options for Remaining W aste
Further Investment in 3Rs- continue to seek opportunities- limits to diversion
Materials Recovery
- Mechanical Biological Treatment (MBT)- Material Recovery Facility (MRF)
Energy Recovery

Long-term goal to eliminate landfilling of unprocessed waste Waste-to-Energy reduces waste to 5% of original volume Consider technologies and their potential environmental and air
quality effects
The 4 th R: Materials and Energy Recovery
Energy Recovery
Reduce greenhouse gas emissions in BC BC energy self-sufficiency by 2016 - Lower Mainland need for electricity

Air Quality
Metro Vancouver is committed to safeguarding the regions air
quality through: 2005 Air Quality Management Plan
minimize risk to public health
minimize contribution to global warming improve visibility
Management of a 27-station air monitoring network
The 4 th R: Materials and Energy Recovery
Any future waste management facility will meetthe highest air emission standards

Develop a draft plan
Goals, Strategies, Actions, Measures Further consultation on draft plan
public, municipal, First Nations, agency input
Finalize plan for Board approval
Submit plan to Ministry of Environment for final approval
