various positions such as Maintenance Worker, Foreman, Crew Chief, Heavy

Household Hazardous Waste.
James is an integral part of the Solid Waste Management team. He is the
sole operator of the County -wide household hazardous waste program, making
sure that household hazardous waste is properly collected, stored and
disposed. He makes it is easy and convenient for the public to properly dispose
of household hazardous wastes and this helps prevent pollution.

saves the County money.
