I had friends that were on the complete route. We both took an interested in seeing how the Cities along the route handled recycling of the many containers used by people on RAGBRAI. The only over night town that made any effort about recycling was Council Bluffs. The Council Bluffs Department Public Health Solid Waste Management division placed a recycling container by every trash can and that was one heck of a lot cans. They applied for a grant to obtain recycling containers. They did receive the grant. They also employed young people to police the RAGBRAI site and to keep an eye on the recycle containers. All the collected recyclable materials were sent to the CB waste management site to be sorted and then sold to recycling companies. None of the other cities in Iowa came even close to their effort. How can the CB waste management people be nominated for a Sierra Club award.
