ALBUQUERQUE MAYOR RICHARD BERRY SAYS THE CITY'S RECENT GREEN WASTE COLLECTION WAS A SUCCESS. FOR THE TWO WEEK PERIOD, ENDING LAST FRIDAY, THE SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT COLLECTED JUST UNDER A MILLION POUNDS OF LEAVES, GRASS AND BRANCHES.
THE GREEN WASTE WILL BE TURNED INTO MULCH, WHICH CAN BE PURCHASED BY THE PUBLIC AT THE MONTESSA PARK CONVENIENCE CENTER IN SOUTHEAST ALBUQUERQUE.
