Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day on Sat., May 7th. The spring
event was an opportunity for Essex County residents to dispose of
pesticides, motor oil, paint, fluorescent light bulbs and other household
materials in an environmentally friendly way. There were 1,485 residents who
brought material to be recycled at the event, which was organized by the
Essex County Utilities Authority. Photo by Glen
