The Town of Arnprior has extended its Recyclables collection contract with Topps Environmental Solutions of Carleton Place into April while it looks for a more long-term fix.
What happens after that is anybody’s guess.
Arnprior Environmental Engineering Officer Deanna Nicholson says the entry of a new player in the market means another possible solution.
While the B-C based Emterra has purchased the former Beaumen Waste Management site in Renfrew, it is still waiting on its Environmental Compliance Approval from the Province.
Nicholson says the Town is in agreement with both McNab-Braeside and Renfrew that a Request for Qualifications be written, and be open to any Municipal Recycling Facility that wants to apply.
