University Recycling
Program
On April 22, 1993, Governor Hunt signed Executive
Order No. 8, "State Government Recycling, Waste Reduction, and Purchase
of Products with Recycled Content." The purpose of Executive Order No.
8 is to maximize the efforts to reduce the amount of solid waste generated;
recycle materials recoverable from solid waste generated; and purchase
and use products made wholly or in part from recycled materials at state
government agencies and the University of North Carolina.
Elizabeth City State University provides a collection
program for recoverable materials, including aluminum cans, cardboard,
magazines, newspaper, and office paper. All campus departments are requested
to participate in the recycling collection program. If you require further
