OCRRA employs innovative strategies such as waste reduction, recycling, composting, disposal and education, to make Onondaga County, NY a more healthy and sustainable place to live.

OCRRA runs a solid waste system that follows the 4R's:

1) Reduce
2) Reuse
3) Recycle (and compost)
4) Recover energy

The 4th R happens when non-recyclable trash in Onondaga County is taken to the Waste-to-Energy Facility in Jamesville. Through a highly monitored incineration process, the trash is converted into electricity, which is sold to National Grid. Proceeds fund OCRRA’s stellar recycling and disposal programs.
