Duarte Businesses Collect Batteries Making Recycling Easier
DUARTE, CA, July 28, 2011 - Two businesses in the City of Duarte are part of 38 establishments in the San Gabriel Valley participating in a pilot program that aims to increase battery recycling within the City and throughout the Valley. The state of California banned batteries from disposal in landfills in 2006 in an effort to recycle more metals and to reduce groundwater contamination caused by the presence of batteries in landfills.
DUARTE, CA, January 25, 2012 – The San Gabriel River Bridge, a heavily trafficked thoroughfare linking Huntington Dr. in Duarte and Foothill Blvd. in Irwindale, continues its $1.85 million structural improvement and repair project which began September 19th of last year.
