The City of Nanaimo91裸聊视频檚 waste collection system doesn91裸聊视频檛 accept deer carcasses.

The municipality advised residents of that guideline earlier this week after it was discovered last week that someone had put a deer carcass in their green bin, said David Thompson, city manager of sanitation, recycling and public works administration.

91裸聊视频淔riendly reminder, Nanaimo: animal carcasses are not acceptable in the green cart for composting! Please talk to your local game butcher about rendering options,91裸聊视频 noted the social media post from the city.

Thompson said the city91裸聊视频檚 messaging was already clear about not accepting roadkill, but felt greater clarification was needed about disposal of game carcasses.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 primarily because of the fur. The fur and the skin is not compostable,91裸聊视频 Thompson said. 91裸聊视频淎nd also the animals can be quite large, considerably different than what might come out of a kitchen.91裸聊视频

He said the Regional District of Nanaimo91裸聊视频檚 organic waste contractor screens the truckloads for contaminants, sometimes finding items that shouldn91裸聊视频檛 be in the green bins, such as plastic plant pots.

91裸聊视频淭here91裸聊视频檚 always room for improvement,91裸聊视频 Thompson said. 91裸聊视频淭hat91裸聊视频檚 one of the reasons why we have this feedback loop with the processing plant is to identify these things as they come up and provide clarification.91裸聊视频

The city has been allowing residents of north and south Nanaimo to for smaller or larger carts this month, but larger green bins are not available because of capacity limitations at the organics processing plant.

91裸聊视频淲e have an open line of communication as to what we91裸聊视频檙e seeing on the ground in terms of our curbside collection and what residents are asking for and we always look to compare that with what the processing plant91裸聊视频檚 capabilities are and hopefully those two things are getting closer and closer as time goes on,91裸聊视频 Thompson said.
