Council Member Abreu inquires about DSNY's composting education and outreach efforts, focusing on home visits and target areas.

  • 3,200 home visits conducted across all five boroughs
  • Focus on areas with lower participation and high-density locations (30+ unit buildings)
  • Outreach aims to educate residents on proper composting practices
  • Education efforts have been successful in maintaining high composting rates
