Butte, Glenn and Tehama County’s Association of Regional Centers was recognized for diverting an estimated 250,000 pounds of trash from landfills.

The organization also recycles all in-house office paper and promotes recycling among employees (who are allowed to use the recycling profits for their own activities).

Additionally, green waste from landscaping at ARC facilities is delivered to a compost facility. While the measures help the environment, Tom Leonardi, ARC’s associate director, noted they also help the organization’s finances.

Congratulations to those counties in their appreciated effort to keep an eco-friendly environment.  Read the whole Chico News and Review article here:  ARC Awarded
