Small 2.5-gallon counter top food wastecollection bins were provided by Waste Management and have been placed invessel galleys and terminal break areas. They are filling up with used coffee grindsand filters. Curbside collection bins have also been provided for separating glasscontainers from the other recyclables. Florescent tubes and batteries are alsorecycled using WM’s Lamp Tracker program.
