ECUA Offers Instructional Videos
July 14, 2009
The Emerald Coast Utilities Authority launched a series of instructional video features on the www.ecua.org web site.
The first video addresses preferred trash bagging techniques in an effort to prevent wind-blown garbage and recyclables from littering the streets of Escambia County.
Nathalie Bowers, spokesperson for ECUA, said that trash blowing out of collection trucks is more of a problem in North Escambia than in some others areas. That is because, she said, trucks in rural areas tend to move at higher highway speeds than those in urban areas. Baffles have been installed on the trucks to help the situation, she said.
Topics soon to follow will include proper water purification methods when precautionary boil water notices are in effect, the general guidelines for the ECUA Residential Recycling Program, and the Fats, Oils and Grease Program.
