A pop up window will appear and be sure to scroll down to see all the trends.

Below are some terms in the pop up window explained to aid in our transparency of the process.

  • Oops rate – percentage of recycling bins in the select area found to have contamination
  • Most common contaminate(s): based on a tally of the different Oops (contaminates) found in recycling bins
  • Pre/Post- audit – Visual audit (percent coverage) of Oops in recycling contents for the select area. These audits are done at the Mountaineer Transfer Station. A recycling truck collects recycling for the select area and dumps in a cleared area for the visual assessment.
