Community Tour: Regional Resource Recovery Centre
November 13, 2020 –
Have you ever wondered what happens to the contents of your yellow-top recycling bin once it has been collected from your verge? If so, join the Eastern Metropolitan Regional Council on a tour of the Southern Metropolitan Regional Council’s Regional Resource Recovery Centre (RRRC) in Canning Vale.
At this free community tour you will be given ample opportunity to ask questions as well as visit:
• The Green Waste Facility, where garden waste is turned into mulch
• The Materials Recovery Facility, where recyclables are separated, baled and sold for reuse
• The Education Centre, where we have lots more resources to help you to reuse, reduce and recycle
All participants MUST be at least 6 years old and were closed shoes. Anyone not meeting these requirements will not be able to participate and will be turned away. Please remember to bring a water bottle and hat. The tour involves climbing a total of 84 stairs to observation decks and spending approximately 30 minutes walking outdoors on bush paths around the site. A reasonable level of physical fitness is required.
As this is an event organised by the Eastern Metropolitan Regional Council, residents of the Cities of Bayswater, Belmont, Kalamunda and Swan, the Town of Bassendean and the Shire of Mundaring are encouraged to attend.
