Subject: Fairchild Gardens Post Office Update
Dear Mr. Lenow:
Per your request at the last CAB meeting, I investigated further into the poor physical and aesthetic conditions at the
Fairchild Gardens Post Office. After contacting Mr. Glenn Guice, Palm Beach Branch Customer Services Director, I was
informed that to date, no plans to remodel or renovate the facility have been approved or considered. He recognizes
the critical need for maintenance at the facility, but is limited by funding shortages. He stated that after Hurricane
Katrina, Federal funds were reallocated to the rebuilding of postal facilities in New Orleans and the surrounding affected
areas. He also relayed that USPS (United States Postal Service) was at the end of their fiscal year, and was actually
frozen in their ability to purchase new equipment or contract out any services. Mr. Guice further explained that the
funding freeze has prevented them from fixing broken landscaping equipment (apparently 2he facility's lawnmower and
trimming equipment needs replacing), and this was the reason the outside landscaping is in such poor condition.
To give you a brief background on this issue, Congressman E. Clay Shaw wrote multiple letters on the City's behalf in
2002-2003 to both the local Palm Beach Postmaster, as well as the Federal offices of the USPS. The Congressman's
ietters detaifed the unsightly appearance of the Fairchild facility and the need for renovation. He also implored the USPS
to set aside funding for another postal facility in the Western portion of the City. The response Rep. Shaw received was
mixed- USPS agreed there was a growing need for a Western facility, which to date has been approved and awaiting
funding (which I was told will take quite a while, the land has been set aside, but no date to break ground has been
approved). However, the expansion and renovation of the Fairchild facility would be considered only after the
completion of the new Northlake facility (which, as previously stated, is not slated to break ground anytime soon).
Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. This is truly a frustrating situation, and I
will keep you and the other board members informed should anything change.
Sincerely,
Jamie Cobb

Our renewable energy projects create enough energy to
power more than 1 million homes. The recovery of landfill
gas, coupled with the power generated from the conversion
of solid waste in our waste-to-energy plants, saves the
equivalent of more than 13 million barrels of oil, or 3.6
million tons of coal, per year.
� �.
Mly�.� rr�+.u.+.��
From the current projects, we supply enough landfill gas to create enough
green energy to power about 400,000 homes, almost 2 million tons of coal.
Wheelabrator Technologies converts municipal solid waste to energy, saving
nearly seven million barrels of oil and generating enough clean, renewable
energy to power 650,000 homes.

We manage more than 7.6 million tons of commodities in our plants and
through our brokerage operations, and our efforts save enough energy to
power 874,000 households.
By recycling more than 3.5 million tons of newspaper, office paper and
cardboard, we saved more than 41 million trees.
By recycling more than 25,000 tons of aluminum, we save energy enough
energy to run one million TVs for 13 hours a day for a year. Recycling one

Si�gle S�ream Re�cycling

New Challenges Requir� New Solutions.
Throughout the United States, companies are looking for new, more effective ways
ta reduce costs, promote responsibte resource management and fight cLimate
change thraugh commercial �vaste recycling. Of all the prograrns currentty in use,
I�one comes ctose to matching the ease, acceptance and cost-effectiveness of
Single Stream Recycling.
What is Single Stream Recycling?
�ingle Stream Recycling is a technalagy that altows participants to place all their
recyclables—such as fiber (newspaper, office paper and cardboard) and non-fiber
�plastic bottles, steel and aluminum cans}—into a single container for subsequent
collection, processing and remarketing. In some markets glass botties and jars are
inciuded. There's no sorting of materials into separate bins and na use of multiple
callection vehicies.

Sirzgle Stream Recycling is Simple and Easy.
Single Stream Recycling is being adopted by an increasing number of American
�usinesses because it WORKS. The simplicity of a singte cart and the program's
ability to accommodate a wider range of materials has allowed businesses with
Single Stream Recycling to collect, on average, 30 percent mare recyctables compared
ta previaus dual- or multi-stream progYams. It increases employee participation and
average tons coilected while helping significantly lower overall waste collection costs.
What Makes Sas�gle Stx�eam Recycliag Possible?
Recent improvements in automated sorting and screening technologies have made
it possible to cleanly separate a wide variety of material streams coming fram a
single source. Even fiber pradurts—which previously needed to be manually
source-separated from other recyclabtes to
avoid costly cflntamination--can naw be part
of a Single Stream Recycling program thanks
ta processing innavations that significantly
reduce paper contamination levels. Ongoing
improvements in this technology wili improve
t�te economic viability of Single Stream
Recyclinq programs.

Waste Maszagement:
Tlze Leader ia Sisagle StYeam Recycling_
Waste Management has a long history of leadership in recycling innovation.
Through our wholly owned recycling subsidiary, Waste Management Recycle
America (WM Recycle America), we were the first major solid waste company
to focus on Single Strearn Recycling, having introduced the techriotogy in the
mid-1990s. We have since established Single Stream Recycling programs in
scores of markets throughout the United States. Between 2002 and 2006, the
volume of materials processed in our Single Stream Recycling facilities nearly
tripted, increasing to 2 million tons from 722,000 tons just four years eartier.
Aboait WM Recycle As�erica_
In 2006 WM Recycle America processed
approximately 5.5 million tons of
recyclables and marketed more than 8
million tons to customers worldwide.
We have the targest network of
recycling processors in the industry,
operating more than 100 Materiat

The Benefits of Sin�le Stream Rec_yclin�.
Companies of all sizes enjoy major benefits from Single Stream
Recycling programs.
• Single cart or dumpster collection programs
• Increased recycling rates and yields that average 30 percent above those of
previous recycling programs
• Fewer trucks visiting your site, thus, reducing parking lot congestion and
wear-and-tear on pavement
• Reduction of CO2 and methane emissions, gases linked directly to climate
change
• Lower Labor and Fuel costs
• Extended Landfill Life

Fluorescent Lamps
Fluorescent lamps consist of
• a glass tube
• aluminum end caps
• calcium phosphate powder
• a small drop of inercury (it would fit on
the tip of a ballpoint pen)
interacts with the calcium phosphate
coating on the inner glass, causing the
coating to glow.

could exceed occupational exposure limits." (NJ DEP)
• The mercury from just one "low mercury" bulb is sufficient to
contaminate 1 acre of water and result in an advisory to limit fish
consumption from that water.
• 1.2 billion fluorescent lamps were sold in the US in 2007. The current
recycling rate is less than 20% . :�

Low Mercury Lamps
Some lamps are referred to as "green-tipped," "eco-friendly" or "low
mercury." indicating they contain less mercury and should pass TCLP.
They do contain mercury and should be recycled.

The Dangers of Drumtop Lamp Crushers
- from the State of California Department of
Toxic Substances Control
"Some sales people offer "drumtop crushers" designed
to break waste mercury lamps into drums. The
Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC)
and the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (U.S. EPA) recently studied the best
drumtop crushers on the market and found that
none could reliablv minimize mercury exposure to
the operator throuqhout their life cYcle•
In the state of California, it is illegal to use drumtop
crushers. It is also unsafe as thev may seriouslv
contaminate the areas in the buildinq where the
crushers are used.
To avoid exposing people to mercury poisoning and
paying serious fines and penalties, do not use
drumtop mercury lamp crushers in California."

Think Green Every Day
Efficient lighting and lamp recycling are part of
the platform for sustainable growth.
1.2 billion fluorescent lamps sold in 2007 =
� 132 million tons of fossil fuel not burned
`�
• 270 million tons of greenhouse gases not emitted (=8.4 million cars off the road)
• 10 tons of inercury not released from fossil fuel
If those 1.2 billion fluorescent lamps were all recycled =
• 250,000 tons of glass
• 1, 5 00 tons o f aluminum
• 22,000 tons of plastic & electronic components

WHAT HAPPENS TO
YOUR
RECYCLABLES?
• Magazines can be recycled into
newspapers and paper toweLs.
• Money that is no longer in circulation
can be recycled and made into rulers,
pens, pencils, and piggy banks.
• The material in five (5) two-liter
plastic bottles can be used to make
one XL t-shirt or one square foot of
carpe�
(
• Used paper can be recycled to mal�e
new paper towels, tissues, egg cartons,
fruit trays and flower pots.
• Sawdust can be recycled and used to
make paper grocery bags, pencils,
corrugated boxes and other products.
• Plastic containers can be recyclecl to
make park benches, picnic tables,
and fences.
• Only 6% of the world's population
lives in the United States, but we
produce half of the world's
garbage.
v • In ONE DAY, Americans throw
away about 150,000 tons of packing
materials; enough to fill 10,000
semi-trucks. If those trucks were
lined up end to end, they would
stretch from West Palm Beach to
Disney World (120 miles).

• Each year Americans throw away
enough office and writing paper to
build a wall twelve feet high
stretching from Los Angeles to
New York City.
• Last year more than 39 million
appliances were recycled in the
U.S. alone. This created enough steel
to build 160 football stadiwns.
• Americans throw away enough
alumuium every three months to
rebuild all the airplanes in the
United States! �-�

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Researchers studying landfills from the
1970's have found heads of cabbage, carrots,
and readable newspapers which have not yet
decomposed! How long will it take your
trash to decompose?

RECYCLING REDUCES
POLLUTION
• To make an aluminum can from
original material, the earth must.
be cleared and bauxite ore mined.
The bauxite ore must then be
processed for the can to be made.
This process creates a large
amount of pollution. However, for
an aluminum can to be recycled,
the can must simply be melted and
remade into a new can minirnizing
pollution!

WHY RECYCLE?
• Recycling diverts waste from the
landfill. Therefore, we don't have
as much garbage and our land�lls
last longer.
In Palm Beach County, we have
extended the life of our landfill
from 2010 to 2023 because of
increased recycling efforts!
In 1960, the average person threw
away 2.7 pounds of garbage each
day. Today, the average person
throws away 4.4 pound of garbage
each day.
There are 3,091 landfills in the
United States.
The SWA appreciates your participation in
Palm Beach County's recycling program.
If you need recycling bins for your home,
or would like more information on
recyding at your business, please call :
1(866) NEW BINS
or E-mail us at recyclec�swa.org

What's ii� iY fior teachers,
arrists, parc.�nts and child
care i_�roviders`?
This unique business/education
partnership helps to solve a serious
problem in our schools and other
child-care programs - the severe lack
of quality affordable materials for creative
learning. There is a consistent,
urgent call from educators nationally
for a supply of hands-on materials.
However, due to low budgets, the
needed resources often cannot
be provided unless they are donated.

What's in it for children?
Research and common sense tell us
that children learn best through self
active "hands-on" experiences.
Self-esteem and social competence
are advanced through concrete,
cooperative learning. Children are our
most valuable resource and will be the
creative problem solvers of tomorrow.
Reusing clean, donated materials
gives children an opportunity they
might not otherwise have while teaching
them a respect for the environment.
Resource Depot is proudly sponsored
by grants made available by:

Resource Depot is a clearinghouse
through which businesses and
industries donate high-quality,
unwanted by products for creative
play and learning. But the magic to
our story is in the details:
P����vidc n�uch-ncedecl
i'CS(ltl l"C CS...
The sky is the limit for a child's
creativity, given the necessary
materials. At Resource Depot,
educators, child care providers, parents
and others can "shop" free for these non-
traditional resources that businesses
donate. Training is also provided on
methods to incorporate these items into
children's educational and artistic
activities. This is a great way to address
today's shortage of good, affordable
materials for creative learning. What a
unique way to stretch a budget!
"�. . � � -
The entire community benefits when
items once headed for disposal
facilities are reused. Businesses can
reduce their disposal fees while
contributing seemingly unlikely
resources for educational purposes.
Resource Depot wants your discarded
materials - items such as foam
packing peanuts, small plastic pieces
and fabric scraps, to name a few.
"I'i�r�a �v��titc� inf�� ������acic��-...
When these materials reach a child's
hands . . . magic happens:
Foam pieces, tiny wooden dowels and
felt ribbons become the building
materials for a city in the hands
of a little girl. Squabbling turns to
teamwork when two young boys
transform giant sheets of glistening
silver Mylar and small metal disks into
a mutual work of art. Through play,
teamwork is born.

And through non-traditional resources,
formal lessons are created. Why not teach
math and science using bottle tops and
cardboard tubes? Why not use leftover
posters and sheets of surplus colored paper
to encourage children to write down their
thoughts, feelings and dreams?

About now, you might be thinking
of your company's cast-offs and
wondering if you should be sending
them our way. Great! That's what
we're hoping. Contact us to find out
how your company can lower disposal

community all at the same time.

WM LampTracker Overview of Federal and State Lamp Regulations
All fiuorescent lamps contain mercury. When they are discarded, federa! and state regulators
assume that lamps are a hazardous waste. In most circumstances, waste lamp generators must
manage, transport and dispose of lamps as a hazardous waste or comply with the more lenient
Universa! Waste Rule (UWR). The UWR provides streamlined regulations for the management and
transportation of lamps.
Exemptions
The federal government and nearly all states strongly encourage the voluntary recycling of all
fluorescent lamps. However, under the federal rules, management and disposal of lamps under
certain conditions is not regulated. Lamps are not regulated by the federal government if:
1. The lamps pass the test that determines whether a waste is a hazardous waste (the test,
called the TCLP, determines the leach-ability of inercury in the lamp).
2. A household generates the lamps.
3. A Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG), which is a generator of less
than 220 pounds of hazardous waste per month and who accumulates less than 2,200
pounds at any one time, generates the lamps.
These exemptions are not as broad as they appear. Lamps are assumed to be hazardous so
generators disposing of "non-hazardous" lamps are required to either test their lamps or maintain
current information on the lamps disposed of to prove that the lamps were properly characterized as
non-hazardous. This means that every different model number of lamp used must be individually
documented.
In addition, any exemption from recycling or hazardous disposal requirements does not relieve a
generator from liability that might arise from those lamps. Generators are still liable for their lamps,
including possible superfund liability.
Finally, many solid waste and industrial waste landfills cannot accept hazardous wastes, even if they
are generated by a CESQG.
State Strinqencv
State regulations cannot be less stringent but can be more stringent than Federal regulations. Many
states have lamp disposal regulations that are more stringent than federal requirements. These
regulations are summarized in the attached table.
In some states, all mercury-added lamps are hazardous and must be recycled or disposed as a
hazardous waste.
Other states eliminate any CESQG exemption or limit it to much smaller quantities of lamps.
And certain states allow the CESQG exemption from hazardous waste rules but still require
recycling or hazardous waste disposal by prohibiting disposal of hazardous waste lamps in some or
all of the municipal and industrial waste landfills in their state.
Compliance
In all states, generators can easily comply with state and federal rules by complying with the
streamlined Universal Waste Rule requirements and sending their lamps for recycling. In virtually all
cases, it is far simpler to recycle fluorescent lamps than to
1) Maintain complete records of their lamp models and accompanying TCLP test results,
2) Closely review their state laws and rules regarding lamp management and disposal, and
3) Review disposal restrictions imposed by their local landfill.

SECTION II: Procedures
Gettin_q Started
[3ecoming a designated member of the Florida Gre��n Lc�cl�ing Program means more than simply
implementing a few environmental activities. The designation process has been designed to help
cncourage and reinforce sustainable behaviors that lead to positive results both for the environment and
your hotel's bottom line.
I�he following list represents the typical sequence of activities a hotel must pursue to achieve GreEn
Lc,dging designation. A certain degree of flexibility has been built into the process to allow hotel
management the ability to choose environmental effurts to best suits their needs and situation. The
juurney to the first level designation (One Palm) can take up to a year. Afterwards, continuous
�nvironmental improvement will be required to move on to Two Palm or Three Palm Status levels.

SECTION III: Requirements
Overview
��s stated earlier, the main purpose of the designation program is to encourage hotels to understand and
improve their environmental performance rather than simply i►nplement a few green practices. To become
a designated member of the Florida Green Loclging Program (FGLP) at any level, a hotel must satisfy the
tollowing criteria:
�
One Palm Status
Or�anization and Commitment: Activities include �btaining support from top management, forming an
active multi-clisciplinary `'Green Team", and operating in cumpliance with all applicable environmental
regulations.
A. Identify an environmental champion.
A successful pro�ram needs an enthusiastic person with good communication and �rganizational
skills who can get everyone working together as a team. The "environmental champion" �1oes not
necessarily have to be an environmental specialist; many �hampions have come t�mm areas such as
personnel, food and beverage, administrative uftices and en�ineering. The environmental
champion will serve as a liaison between the FGLP Oftice and the hotel/motel during the process.
B. Obtain top management commitment and submit the admission application.
The most important ingredient for a successful environmental initiative is General Mana�er
commitment. Havin� official sanction will let employees know that resource conservation is an
important work responsibility. Once upper management has decided to pursue the program,
complete this application. Once received, the FGLP Office will assign a client manager to Serve as
a liaison to assist you in the process anci/or answer any questions.
C. Create a Green Team.
,A Green Team can be a fornlal or informal �;roup responsible for ensuring that all environmental
improvement practices in which the hotel is participating are being performed timely an�l
correctly. A Green Team is usually compriseci of individuals from each area of the hotel/motel,
namely: housekeeping, engineering, kitchen, front office, maintenance and upper management.
D. Conduct an Environmental Self-Assessment.
How green is your facility right now? The Green Team should identify and evaluate opportunities
to improve environmental performance by conducting a walk through of the hotel property. An
E�iviro�Tmental Sel/=:�ssess�ne►it and Plunning Checklist has been designed to provide guidance in
obtaining baseline data (www.dep.state.t7.us/�,reenlo�R��). A review of product purchases,
utility bills and waste hauling records will help determine environmental baselines. It is not
required that the property have any environmental practices in place until it is ready for
designation. This form also asks that you list the baseline utility data for water, energy and waste
for the property. Be sure to have at least one year of baseline utility data to cover seasonal
fluctuations. The Environ►nental Self-Assessmeitt and Planning Checklist should be submitted to
the FGLP within SIX months of submitting the application.
These core activities are outlined in the Minimum Requirements Checklist attached to the end of this
application. Please use this form as a tool, and keep it for your records as you proceed.
Core Activities: Certain green practices will be required of all hotels seeking designation. These
core activities have been selected to provide some continuity between all designated mernbers of the
Florida Green Lodging Program. As part of the process, these efforts will be verified on-site by a
trained assessor of the FGLP. The core activities represent a minimum set of best �nanagement

months prior to applying for Two Palm status.
I'erformance Improvement: Activities include conducting an environmental baseline assessment,
�ieveloping and implementing performance improvement goals, implementing green projects and
cvaluating progress.
A. Update environmental assessment.
How much have you saved? The Green Team should review and re-evaluate opportunities to improve
environmental performance by conducting a walk through of the hotel property and complete a
second Envi�-orunenta! Self-Assessment and Plnnning Checklist.
(httt�:���v��w.dop.>tate.tl.u;itre�nludgin;�idc�ignatiun.htm#application�).
A review of product purchases, utility bills and hauling records will help determine environmental
baselines. Be sure to have at ieast one year uf baseline utility clata to cover seasonal fluctuations.
NOTE: You must submit your updated Ejivirunnrentci! Se(J=Assessment cln�! Pla�inin� Cherklrst, to
the FGLP Office for Two Palm status tivithin 6 n�onths of receiving your One Palm status.
B. Establish goals and identify environmental improvement projects.
The Green Team should set goals for improvement. Goals should inclu�e short- and long-term
benchmarks (e.g. reduce electricity usage by lU% eiuring the next year; reuse or recycle all corrugated
carciboard; and reduce water usage by 15°% by implementing a sheet and towel reuse pro�ram). Be
sure to list these goals in the Environn�ental S�l/=Assessiuent and Plnnning Cliecklist. To ►neet these
�oals, refer to the list of best management practices at �vww.�lep.state.tLus/�reenloil�in�/ for ideas on
environmental improvement projects.
C. Submit your self-assessment and environmental baseline data to the FGLP Oftice.
Once the Green Team has completed the En��iraime�,rtul Se!/=.�{ssessment u,ut Plu�ining C/zec klist,

D. Implement environmental improvement projects.
Be�in implementing your environmental improvement projects. Remember staff training is a crucial
part of a hotel's environmental perforniance. Both new and veteran employees will benefit from
ongoing training on resource conservation terhniques.
E. "�'rack progress of your goals.
Improvement is determined by utilizing the Florida G��een Lodgrng Performanre Workslzeet located
at: (htt�//www.de.p.state.fl.us/greenlod�in�/desi�,nation.htm#applications). On the worksheet, you
will be asked to list the baseline utility data for yuur property (previous year's data) and the improveci
utility data (current year). The worksheet does take into account seasonal fluctuations and uccupancy
rates. Finally, you are asked to list goals that you will implement over the year following each palm
status level.
F. Evaluate and monitor the program.
Periodically monitor and evaluate the effectiveness uf the improvement projects and make any
changes necessary to improve performance. Keep your staff informed about their accomplishments.
G, Schedule on-site assessment.
Once the Green Team feeis they have satisfied the criteria, a brief on-site assessment is required.
Complete and submit the Reytrest for On-site Review form. At this point, you should have
implemented performance improvement goals and shown performance improvements for reducin�
energy and water usage and waste disposaL Utility improvements are determined by utilizing the
Florida Green Lodgi�ig Performance Worksheet
(hi�n i��,vw �lr� �tatr !] uti: �,rrenlud��in�'Jr�iknatiim h�mraP��li�ati�,n�).
An assessment will not be scheciuled until completed Eiiviron�nenta! Self=.�ssessme�2t and Plcr�rnirig

Atter receiving designation, new goals anei improvement projects must be �stablished. Atter the tirst
year, the hotel upciates the self-assessment by evaluating utiliry and other bills to �locument changes
in em�ironmental performance since becoming a designated member. After the se�ond year, the hotel
will have a brief inspection visit from a trained assessor.
Once performance improvement is shown, the hotel will be awarcied Two Palm status.
C�
NOTE: Please understand that Two Palm status �vill �lepend on maintaining rop manaQement
wit�mitment and demonstrating improved environmental performance. [f Two Palm status is not
a�hieved within ?4 months of obtaining to one palm status, the property will run the risk of being moved
tu inactive status in the program and �vill be removed from the designated properties Web site. A hotel in
iiiactive status will no longer be able to consider itself a desi;nated member uf the Florida Green Lucl�irr�
Program and will no longer be able to use the Florida Grec�n Lo�l�irrg Program logo and designation to
promute the property.

SECTlON IV: Benefits of Becoming a Florida Green Lodge
Hotels will seek to become a designated member of the Florida Green Lodgirrg Program for different
reasons. Some will implement environmental improvements to reduce operating costs. Others will
recognize an opportunity to generate additional revenue by attracting environmentally-conscious business
travelers, meeting planners and vacationing families. And yet uthers will regard it as simply the right
thing to do. Most will do it for some combination of factors, but if that's not enough the FGLP offers
additional benetits:
• Hotels who reach the "applicant" stage will be posted on the FGLP Web site. They �vill be
eligible for certain promotional items such as towel reuse door hangers (while supplies last), and
be eligible for group purchasing discounts on "green" supplies through FGLP business partners.
� In addition, hotels that �o on to become a desianated member will have their contact informatiun
placed on the Florida Grcen Loclging Desi�nated Properties Web site and on Earth's 91 I �nline
hotel locator, linked through Visit Florida's website. Designated members will also receive a
Florida (�ree►7 Luclgir�g Flag to tly ot� the property and uther proinotional materials to �how
commitment to the environment.
