Lower Makefield Township ($78,195), Middletown Township ($132,713) and Quakertown Borough ($244,640) are among municipal governments getting a boost to their recycling and leaf-collection programs this year, thanks to $30.5 million in Recycling Development and Implementation Grants from the state.
“These grants help bolster recycling in communities all over Pennsylvania and reduce the amount of waste going into our landfills,” said Department of Environmental Protection Secretary Patrick McDonnell. “Whether it’s from increased education for residents or an entire facility for sorting recyclables, these grants are making a difference.”
