WASTE MANAGEMENT REPORTS ON HOUSEHOLD GARBAGE COLLECTION
IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA
Oct. 10, 2005 - Waste Management of Louisiana LLC is working aggressively in its efforts to collect household garbage following the devastation resulting from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
According to Tim Hawkins, Waste Management Market Area Vice President for Louisiana and Mississippi, enormous volumes of household garbage, resulting from the unprecedented events of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, must be disposed of safely. There is a distinction between the household garbage that Waste Management is collecting and the storm debris, which is being collected by FEMA or other contractors.
"Waste Management is collecting household garbage, such as food refuse, diapers, newspapers and other waste produced during the week, according to the agreements with the parishes and municipalities we serve. Waste Management is not collecting storm debris, which includes rugs, furniture, sheet rock, wood fencing, tree limbs, bags of clothing, refrigerators, household appliances and roofing materials. Parishes and municipalities of southeast Louisiana are coordinating the collection of storm debris independently from Waste Management with other contractors, such as those contracted through FEMA," said Hawkins.
Following is an update of the company's operational status in the areas of southeast Louisiana where Waste Management is performing collection services

CONSUMER INFORMATION - SEPARATING HOUSEHOLD GARBAGE AND STORM DEBRIS
As families return to the areas affected by Hurricane Katrina, Waste Management strongly recommends that all residential customers separate their household garbage, such as food, diapers and regular household waste, from debris created by the storms and their aftermath. We ask that customers bag their household garbage and place it at the curb. Storm debris, including refrigerators, household appliances, bags of clothing, tree limbs, carpet and carpet padding, and wood fencing, should be placed in a separate pile or piles.
Separating household waste from storm debris will allow Waste Management employees to collect your household garbage more quickly and safely, helping prevent foul odors and safety hazards that would be created by mixing your household garbage with storm debris. The separation is also necessary to allow Waste Management to collect household waste and to permit others to collect storm debris in accordance with arrangements made by parishes and municipalities of southeast Louisiana with contractors independent from Waste Management.
