• Mitigates long-term environmental risks while providing opportunity to improve recycling activity, diversion rates, and effective handling of solid waste;
• Coordinates the processing and sale of recyclable materials collected;
• Provides education to residents on healthy environmental practices;
• Collaborates with neighbouring municipalities and the Government of Alberta on environmental initiatives; and
• Operates as the managing body for the Lesser Slave Regional Waste Management Commission.

Lesser Slave River Waste & Recycling services are provided in partnership with both the Lesser Slave and Athabasca Regional Waste Management Commissions.
