Promoting a Toxic Free Future in New York State Important Notice Regarding the Year 2011 Collections The process for contracting a CleanSweepNY waste hauler is underway and due to time requirements there will be no spring 2012 collection program. Once a Request for Proposal (RFP) is finalized by NYSDEC, it will be posted on the NYS Contract Reporter. We are hopeful that a contract will be in place for a fall 2012 collection which will target the following NYSDEC Region 8 counties: Chemung, Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Schuyler, Seneca, Steuben, Wayne and Yates. To date, over 1,059,344 pounds of pesticides and other chemical wastes from schools and other entities have been collected and removed from New York State for disposal. This total includes the collection of over 715 pounds of elemental mercury collected from 379 participating schools. We look forward to providing pesticide disposal services and school chemical disposal services to farmers, nurseries, greenhouses, certified pesticide applicators, landscapers, and schools in New York State to promote a Toxic Free Future for all New Yorkers.
