MACARTHUR ECOLIBRIUM WASTE MANAGEMENT PLANT Campbelltown, Camden, Wollondilly and Wingecarribee Shire councils Ken KANOFSKI CEO WSN Environment Recovery Plant "When Waste Service NSW was established in 1971 it was a government agency that managed landfills for the disposal of waste," WSN Environmental Solutions chief executive officer Ken Kanofski explained. "Today it is a keenly competitive business offering customers a range of services that cover the complete journey of waste from kerbside collection to recycling, resource recovery, treatment and disposal. "We have been at the forefront of innovation in the industry, having pioneered the generation of green electricity from waste, and now provide enough electricity to power up to 30,000 homes a year. Last year we opened Sydney's first alternative waste technology facility for household waste at Eastern Creek in partnership with Global Renewables," he said. Madam Mayor there are some very worrying trends emerging in this outsourcing era particularly with the Electricity Privatisation proposed by the NSW Labour Government.
