Chair Sanchez asks how many private and municipal waste transfer stations exist in New York City. Anderson says there are about 16 putrescible and roughly 21 non-putrescible private stations, plus five municipal putrescible stations.

Justin E. Sanchez

Thank you so much.

Justin E. Sanchez

So just let's start with some general oversight.

Justin E. Sanchez

How many private waste transfer stations are there in New York City?

Gregory Anderson

Hold on.

Gregory Anderson

There are...

Gregory Anderson

It looks like about 16 putrescible waste transfer stations and another, I would say, roughly 21 non-putrescible waste transfer stations.

Justin E. Sanchez

Okay.

Justin E. Sanchez

And how many municipal waste transfer stations are there in New York City?

Gregory Anderson

Five.

Ty Hankerson

And can you also give us the breakdown?

Gregory Anderson

Those are all putrescible.
