Ir a joint environmental effort, the
Res jcience Hall Association and the Tar
Heet Recycling Program are expanding
campus recycling.
The program will expand residence
hall recycling to include glass and paper
products, in addition to the existing
aluminum recycling efforts. The plan
includes placing heavy-duty garbage
cans in residence hall kitchen areas to
be -used as storage bins for glass and
paper'products. Orange County Recy
cling Services will pick up the products
for recycling.
Gretchan Diffendal, RHA president,
said the project was a result of increasing
environmental concern on the part of
dormitory residents.
The only cost of expanding the pro
gram Iwill be buying more recycling
bins,Which will be paid for by dormi
tory aihd area governments. Diffendal
said she thought many residence halls
would participate. "Hopefully bins will
be placed in every dorm," she said.
Wayne Kuncl, director of University
Housing, said the plan ultimately would
be enacted, but was unsure how it would

expand
be implemented. The program is en
couraging because students and Uni
versity administrators are working to
gether to improve the environment, he
said.
Diffendal and Kuncl said they were
not sure when the plan would be insti
tuted, but would investigate using pilot
halls as test sites for the program.
University Health and Safety offi
cials initially had reservations about the
program because storing large amounts ,
of paper products in dormitories could
be a potential fire hazard.
But Health and Safety officials ap
proved the plan with the condition that
the bins be kept in dormitory kitchens
because these areas have fire alarms
and extinguishers, which would reduce
the risk of possible hazards.
Matt Dixon, governor of Olde Cam
pus, said he was very excited about the
program because it would make recy
cling more accessible to dorm residents.
"Many dorm residents have expressed a
great deal of concern with recycling and
the environment, and as a result of their
encouragement, RHA is working to
expand campus recycling," he said.

some and then there may be none,"
Copeland said. "We won't know for a
day or two. I don't see any major
(damage) at this point. We'll just have
to see what dries out and what doesn't."
The Union's main electrical system
was not affected by the flooding, he
said.
The Union is insured through the
University, but it is unclear if Sunday's
damage will be covered, Copeland said.
"I hope I won't have to be interested in
that," he said.
An emergency cleaning crew from
the University's physical plant cleaned
the Union's floors, he said. "The floors
were pretty slick, and it was dangerous
to be walking around in there."
- Billy Lewter, University plumbing
supervisor, said, "It was right smart of a
mess, but the janitor crew cleaned it
up.
Chris Derby, Carolina Dining Ser
vices director, said Lenoir was closed
between lunch and supper Sunday. The
lack of water services prevented washing
dishes, serving fountain soft drinks and
preparing foods that required boiling.
"We can't get a drop (of water)," he
said.
The break of the Orange Water and
Sewer Authority (OWASA) tap water
pipe was near chilled water pipes being
installed between the Union and Davis
Library by an outside contractor.
Roland Burnett, OWASA crew chief,
said work on the chilled water pipes
contributed to Sunday 's break. "Because
of all the heavy tractors and trucks that
have been over this area, the mushy
ground settled some and cracked the
(pipe)."
The chilled water line workers could
not have stayed out of the area of the
