PPEC Wants OCC Banned from Landfills

摘要

Canada's paper packaging industry wants the Ontario government to ban old corrugated containers (OCC) from landfills. Quebec is moving to ban them from landfills next year and the industry wants Ontario to do the same, says PPEC Executive Director John Mullinder. A provincial ban would demonstrate political leadership and is legally required to cover both private and publicly-owned landfills, he says. "It's a win-win for everybody, but mainly for the environment."
