What is the timeline for installing illegal dumping cameras in high-risk areas?

The timeline for installing illegal dumping cameras is driven by when funding is approved for spending by the Office of Management and Budget.

  • It typically takes 4 to 7 months to prepare a camera site and install the camera
  • Site surveys and permission from utility companies like Verizon or Con Ed are required before installing cameras on utility poles
  • The goal is to have cameras installed within 6 months, but the process can sometimes take longer

Do you have a tie timeline for the installation and deployment of illegal dumping cameras in high risk areas like mine.

So in this, the timeline is always driven by when we have permission to actually spend the funding once we do from the Office of Management of Budget.

It's typically a 4 to 7 month process to get a camera in, prep it, make sure the poll is ready and put it up on a poll.

Then I'll just I'll just explain there because that sounds it could sound crazy.

But for each poll, we need to request permission either from Verizon or from Con Ed, whoever owns the poll.

And so there are a number of site surveys that are required before we can just throw a camera up there.

So we'd like to see it in under 6 months, but sometimes it takes a little longer.
