WASTE DISPOSAL NOTICE: NEW RECYCLING METHODS FOR GLASS
As of October 1, 2019, Fairfax and Prince William Counties no longer accept glass bottles and jars in the curbside recycling bins. Residents should re-use glass containers or bring them to purple, glass-only recycling containers located throughout the region. If this is not possible, glass should be placed in the trash.
Our disposal company, American Disposal Services, has not yet issued any notices or bans on glass recycling, but they have informed me that they may do so at any time. Rockland Village residents can continue to put glass in the recycle bins until further notice. Other disposal companies have already banned glass from their recycle services so we will keep you informed as soon as we hear anything from American Disposal.
Please use this opportunity to develop better re-use and recycle habits. Try to find another use for your glass containers. If you don’t re-use them, try to drop off bottles and jars at the closest glass recycling container instead of throwing it in the trash. Fairfax is crushing the glass and using it for construction purposes.
As of January 2020, the glass will also be used to manufacture new glass products. You can find one of these large purple glass recycling containers located at:
Sully District Governmental Center
4900 Stonecroft Blvd, Chantilly, VA
STRAY CAT POPULATION
Trap, Neuter, Return Program Decreases Homeless Feral Cat Population
Our community is starting to experience an increase in the number of stray cats. Some of these cats are part of Fairfax County “Trap, Neuter, Return” program. You can read more about it from the excerpt below taken from a Fairfax County Times article dated April 8, 2010:
With an estimated 195,000 homeless and feral cats in Fairfax County, animal shelter officials have come to believe in recent years that trying to eliminate cat colonies is neither practical nor humane.
The cat population estimate, which is based on formulas developed by veterinary colleges, provides “an unlimited supply of cats,” said Michelle Hankins, community outreach program manager for the Fairfax County Animal Shelter. So removing a cat colony from an area often does not solve the problem.
“When you just remove them all in a short period of time, the food sources still exist; the environment can still support a certain number of cats,” Hankins said. “What happens is new cats move in.”
Now, the shelter focuses on educating and training residents to manage outdoor cat colonies rather than removing the animals. Through the “trap-neuter-return” program, volunteers learn to trap cats and bring them to a county clinic for free spay or neuter surgery and rabies and distemper vaccinations. The sterilization services are funded through Fairfax County’s share of the “Animal Friendly” Virginia license plate fees.
The public also favors letting the cats stay outdoors, Parowski said, citing a 2007 Harris Interactive poll conducted for Alley Cat Allies. More than 80 percent of respondents in that survey favored leaving cats outdoors rather than euthanizing them.
“Most people aren’t so angry at the animals that they want them killed,” she said.
