GLENVILLE, WV – The ����ֱ�� Environmental Science Club recently spent an afternoon putting a fresh coat of paint on the flowerboxes next to the recycling bins in the Hays City area of ����ֱ��. They also have plans to plant flowers to commemorate the end of spring and start of fall/winter.

The recycling bins are located in the parking lot between Tudor’s Biscuit World and McDonalds (on the lot formerly occupied by U-Pak grocery) and are for available for the community to use 24/7. The bins are maintained by the Lewis-Gilmer Country Solid Waste Authority.

“If you are interested in diverting waste away from landfills, then we highly encourage you to take advantage of these bins – they are a great resource. The recycling bins take plastic containers (numbers 1 -7), mixed metals (aluminum and tin only), mixed paper (office paper, newspaper/magazines, and cereal boxes), and there is a separate container for corrugated cardboard only,” said ����ֱ�� Assistant Professor of Natural Resource Management, Dr. Nabil Nasseri. He also serves as advisor for the Environmental Science Club and is an appointed member of the Lewis-Gilmer County Solid Waste Authority.

Nasseri says there are plans in the works to have a similar centralized recycling location on ����ֱ�� State’s campus for both the campus community and the community at large to utilize. He also encourages membership in the Environmental Science Club, which is open to everyone, including community members.
