ing Opportunity Act (OROA) of
1986 and. In doing so. Drake
hopes to increase participation
in the recycling effort
The project centers around
garbage samples from three
apartment complexes housing a
total of 400 students Drake
said he expects to gauge the
success of the recycling project
next month when the students
return to their dwellings after
spring break
The OROA offers Oregon res
idents the opportunity to recy
cle gixKls via their present sani
tation company, however this
voluntary action is practiced by
only 25 percent of Oregon resi
dents nowadays. Drake said
the Ad requires salutation
companies, to collect and dis
pose of recyt liable goods in a
m.inner appropriate to the ulti
mate goal of deereasing unnec
essary wastes by recycling
them, he said
These garbage hauling com
panies do not nei essarily look
upon the task as burdensome
Recyclable goods an1 a source
of profit for them, as there is a
thriving market for reselling
the goods track to refining com
panies sui h as Secondary Fi

gene. Drake said
Secondary Fibers recycles the
tin, aluminum, papers, etc . for
resale back to the producers of
virtually any business which
requires these items on the
market
Presently there are 17 sanita
tion and recycling firms in the
Eugene area that are responsive
to this OROA
The Eugene Mission, for in
stance, is a non-profit organiza
tion collecting and selling card
board and newspaper to genor
atf* money used for charitable
causes, such as feeding the
poor and homeless in the area
The Mission provides bins
for flattened cardboard items
around the University neigh
borhood on request. Unfortu
nately for the Mission, the
price received for these recycla
ble goods dropped approxi
mately T>0 percent last month
"Anything can be recycled,"
Drake said
There has even been a Blow
ing market for the r ol
plastic products such as sham
poo bottles. I>eer can binders
and the like on the internation
,11 market
Recycling organizations such
as Begin Recycling In Neigh
borhood Groups have even ex
panded the market for plastic
goods to tie hide trading with
Asian countries.
Presently the OROA has only
been effective at targeting pri
vale houses as recycling
sources, but Drake is attempt
ing to amend this situation.
Drake said he is joining other
OSPIRG workers m attempting
to build awareness of the im
portance of such recycling el
forts in the apartment complex
es around campus.
Many of the University stu
dents live in multi-unit dwell
ings and share common sanita
lion facilities B\ educating
these tenants. Drake believes
they will get the landlords to
organize curb-side pick-up
days with the sanitation com
pany.
Unfortunately, due to the
transitory nature of tenants
staying in these complexes, or
ganizing these people becomes
