The city’s environment committee recommended that staff notes and several rules
for Taggart Miller’s Capital Region Resource Recovery Centre in Carlsbad Springs
be sent to the Ministry of the Environment – which has the final decision on the
project. Councillors proposed setting limits on the geographic boundaries from
which waste and materials to be recycled can originate, a rule that would bar
Taggart Miller from charging less for waste than materials to be recycled, the
creation of a public liaison committee and a six-truck daily cap on leachate
brought to the city’s wastewater plant, among several other restrictions.
