Due to ongoing staffing shortages, Emterra has advised the Capital Regional District that recycling will once again experience service disruptions.
Collection until Aug. 19 may be impacted by delays, and Emterra suggests leaving out recycling to be collected at a later time if it is not picked up on your scheduled day.
