Abstract
As you work towards improving the facility's collection procedures, constant monitoring will help evaluate the progress of the implemented procedures and policies. Clear bags help provide a quick visual assessment of materials in the landfill/recycling stream. This change will allow for evaluation without having to physically hand sort materials every time.
