How Are We Doing?
Thursday, December 16, 1999
State law mandates that at least 50 percent of our garbage be recycled by next year. As of 1998, only Monterey and Marina had met that goal.
Marina*--54 percent
Monterey--54 percent
Seaside*--48 percent
Pebble Beach--39 percent
Carmel--37 percent
Pacific Grove--36 percent
Del Rey Oaks--35 percent
Sand City--34 percent
Monterey County (unincorporated)--25 percent
Salinas--16 percent
* Because of skewed figures due to the closure of Fort Ord, Marina and Seaside's recycling rates are artificially high.
