The Santa Fe, N.M., Solid Waste Management Agency Joint Powers Board is considering a contract amendment that could cost in excess of $200,000 a year for a trucking company to haul most of the glass collected in Santa Fe to the Momentum Recycling plant in Broomfield, Colo.
According to a Santa Fe New Mexican report, the amendment would pay Pro-Motion trucking company $1,275 per load shipped to Momentum, which is slightly more than 400 miles from Santa Fe, and $1,650 per load for any loads that go to a new alternative site in Phoenix.
