Guide for the recovery of high grade waste paper from federal office buildings through at-source separation.: En42-1/78-2E-PDF

"Analysis of office waste stream shows that a high percentage of it is valuable waste paper. By preventing this material from being mixed wIth the rest of refuse it produces a more profitable and environmentally beneficial category of waste paper to be sold for recycling. The key to successful recovery of recyclable materials is to set them aside at the point of generation (the desk or work station) by the generator. This guide explains how to organize and successfully manage an office waste paper recovery program in a federal office building (Crown owned or leased)"--Abstract.
