Ocean Township wins award for recycling
The Monmouth County Solid Waste Advisory Council recently presented the Township of Ocean with an award for excellence in recycling as demonstrated by the township’s education and enforcement programs for its residents and commercial establishments.
Mayor William F. Larkin praised residents and commercial businesses and said, "Without the participation of our residents and businesses, the program would surely fail. Together we have created a recycling program that is not only compliant with, but exceeds state and county requirements while being beneficial to the environment."
He also commended the recycling coordinator, Mary Ann Fieux, calling her the "cornerstone of the program."
The award ceremony was held at the Holiday Inn, Tinton Falls.
