Chair says Recycling Center composting needs water; cites Bay State Textile’s 5,360-ton collection
Summary
Chairman J Geci reported the Recycling Center may add water to compost and highlighted Bay State Textile’s collection total of 5,360 tons across locations, calling the textile program effective; he also recommended recruiting new committee members.
Chairman J Geci told the Litchfield Waste Reduction Committee on July 8 that he will speak with the fire department about adding water to the town's compost to improve processing, and he cited Bay State Textile collection statistics—"a total of 5360 tons across all locations"—as evidence the textile collection program is working.
Geci said he recommended recruiting new members to the committee to support expanding and operating programs. The update did not include a formal vote or budget allocation; it was presented as an operational report and a recommendation to pursue staffing help.
The meeting ended at 5:12 p.m. with follow-up items including the July 21 operations meeting to coordinate Recycling Center logistics.
