Household Hazardous Waste Day Still Going Strong in 25th Year

OTSEGO COUNTY—The Otsego County Planning and Solid Waste Department held its 25th Hazardous Waste Collection event Friday and Saturday, August 16 and 17.

On Friday morning, a satellite event was held in Unadilla at the Town Highway garage. Approximately 129 cars dropped off hazardous materials, officials reported.

The main event was held on Saturday at the Meadows Office Complex in the Town of Middlefield, with approximately 326 cars dropping off hazardous materials. A combined total of approximately 455 households took advantage of this free disposal program.

Hazardous wastes commonly found from around the home were collected throughout the day, including liquid and solid wastes such as pesticides, lubricants, paint, cleaning chemicals and solvents, flammable liquids, corrosive materials, and solid pesticide materials. The materials were received and packaged by MXI Environmental Services, the contracted vendor for the collection event.

This was the 13th year pharmaceuticals and medications were collected. According to a press release, Officer Timmy Card and Officer Mark Vencak from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation supervised the collection prior to the County Sheriff’s department transporting 860 pounds to Oswego County for incineration.

Other items were collected for local processing, including approximately 1,900 pounds of automotive batteries and 2,000 pounds of household batteries.

The success of the collection event can be credited to the assistance of the Otsego County Conservation Association, which helps to organize volunteers, the Town of Unadilla, the Otsego County Highway Department, Otsego County Building Services, Otsego County Emergency Services, the Otsego County Sheriff’s Office, NYSDEC, and the efficiency of the crew from MXI Environmental Services.

Hazardous Waste Collection Day is an annual public service provided by the Otsego County Board of Representatives. NYSDEC provides approximately half the funds to cover the costs of…

Cineuropa: Where did the desire to make this film in Corsica come from?
Frédéric Farrucci: In 2017, I directed a documentary about a shepherd on the South coast of Corsica that was meant to evoke his profession and his family history. But these questions were expelled little by little and the discussion turned to an anxiety that wouldn’t leave him: his goats would pass through this place where all these things that make tourism buzz could be built. He was afraid and he’d say that he was “the last of the Mohicans” because he wouldn’t be able to pass on the farm to his sons, that it would be a poisoned chalice. From that reality, I wanted to extrapolate these fears and to stage this situation. I’m Corsican and I also had the desire to go work on that territory that questions and troubles me. The level of real estate speculation is rather high in Corsica and there is a Mafia influence on part of the territory linked in particular to the coast and to tourism.

VENICE 2024 Orizzonti Extra

by Fabien Lemercier

01/09/2024 – Frédéric Farrucci delivers a thrilling modern western following a Corsican shepherd hunted down by mafiosi and brilliantly played by Alexis Manenti

Alexis Manenti in The Mohican

“You’ve become an anomaly in the landscape. You very well know how this will end, I won’t draw you a picture”. When the very source of your existence is threatened by dangerous characters, the choice is simple: to submit to them, or to confront them at your own risk. It’s the second option that compulsively chooses the taciturn and stubborn protagonist of Frédéric Farrucci’s captivating second feature, The Mohican, unveiled in the Orizzonti Extra programme of the 81st Venice Film Festival. Moreover, the setting is Corsica, where no one lacks character, in a territory plagued by crime that navigates between seaside business and underground independence movement.

“We’re interested in your land – But it’s not buildable? – That isn’t your problem – I work on this land! – Monstrous interests are at play, they go beyond you”. Nicknamed “the last of the Mohicans” by a friend because he’s the last to still keep his herd of goats along the coast, on the peninsula of Santa Manza, solitary shepherd Joseph (an extraordinary Alexis Manenti) is more than a little worried about the surprise visit of these potential buyers he knows well. As a neighbour who sold his land admits, “you don’t say no to these people”. And thus they soon return, armed. The situation gets out of hand (“I became crazy”) and Joseph runs away in the bushes after leaving a dead person behind. He is now wanted by the police and chased by his enemies while his niece Vannina (Mara Taquin) investigates…
