TIRRA Solid Waste Independent Site Review
Monday, May 2, 2022 at 8:30AM At the TIRRA AGM April 28th, Paul Duncan led us through his review process and the outcomes for the Thetis Island Solid Waste site.
Paul agreed to take on this review at the June 2021 AGM, and he spent well over 200 hours in conversations and research regarding Solid Waste management.
This independent review was undertaken with the intent to understand current state (pre-covid) versus future state: considering risks, sustainability, and community engagement.
Optimization of our future solid waste management requires both Community and TIRRA commitment to succeed.
We require site employees and volunteers, but also individuals willing to operationalize the many components that will reduce risk and increase sustainability in a financially and environmentally responsible way.
The members who attended the AGM approved to prioritize Scenario 1 with a desire to engage in efforts to get to Scenario 2 as a future state.
Thank you, Paul for your commitment to this work and for providing a document that clearly defines some ways forward.
