Fort Wainwright, partners create recycling program

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Fort Wainwright is pairing up with a local recycler to create a recycling program.

K and K Recycling positioned four bins near the commissary last week for residents and employees to drop their recyclable materials into.

Officials have been working with the company to develop the program and plan to expand it by adding three more collection points. The new recycling bins should be in place by October.

North Haven Communities, another partner, will help keep residents informed and offer recycling tips.
