The Village of Corona residents will now recycle cardboard in Lincoln County’s first green automated recycling compactor. The new compactor, located at the Corona waste convenience site adjacent to the rail road tracks across from Village Hall will cut collection and transportation costs significantly, according to Lincoln County Solid Waste Supervisor Debra Ingle. “Rapidly rising transportation costs are crippling existing rates in the solid waste business” stated Ingle.

The Lincoln County Solid Waste Authority (LCSWA) has been awarded a New Mexico Environment Department recycling grant in the amount of $8,635 for indoor recycling by the estimated 575 business members of the Ruidoso Chamber of Commerce. Selected in a competitive process from among an overwhelming number of applicants across New Mexico, the LCSWA project will offer several indoor labeled vinyl plastic recycling containers for each interested Chamber members, Chamber recycling brochures for employees and customers and recycling education.
