Landfill Diversion Rate estimates the percentage of total solid, non-hazardous waste prevented from going to landfill due to reuse, refurbishment and recycling. The diversion rate remains within the 65 to 70 per cent target range due to the continued success of BC Hydro's reuse, refurbishment and resource recovery programs. These initiatives save money as well as landfill space.
