Welcome to the West Carleton Environmental Centre. Waste Management is proposing a new, integrated multi-purpose waste management facility to serve the City of Ottawa and the surrounding communities.
The West Carleton Environmental Centre will focus on waste diversion, diverting as much waste as possible away from disposal to reuse and recycling for purposes. It will also include additional lands set aside for community recreational purposes and wildlife habitat as well as a state-of-the-art, environmentally engineered landfill for the disposal of residual waste while generating clean renewable energy.
Waste Management has a strong commitment to the City of Ottawa, its immediate neighbours and the surrounding communities. This commitment extends beyond just meeting regulatory standards to being responsible environmental steward and engaged corporate citizen.
