Recycling Results
Spring 2004 Recycling Results:
Note that these are raw results which do not directly determine the winner. The final winner for this category is determined by improvement compared to last year as well as the ratio of recycling to total waste generated. Week 3 and 4 are combined (but weighted as two weeks) due to the Presidents' Day Holiday.
Total Waste Recycled Each Week (weight of recyclables divided by weight of recyclables + weight of 3 yr trash average)
