Success of BHP's Kalmia Zero-Waste Project Earns Media Attention

Boulder Housing Partners' Tim Beal and Jessica Robetor discuss the recent success of the Zero Waste Program at Kalmia. Through a partnership with Eco-Cycle, the City of Boulder, and Western Disposal, the Kalmia Community is now diverting 40% of total material from the landfill through both recycling and their newly instituted composting service.

BHP looks forward to extending the success of this program to nine other properties through the Boulder County Zero Waste Grant that was awarded recently.

The segment will run through Friday, March 7 on Comcast Channel 8, https://vimeo.com/87909930
