Conway resident honored for recycling

The Horry County Solid Waste Authority recently recognized Conway resident Loretta Miller as a “Caught Green Handed” recipient.

“The ‘Caught Green Handed’ recognition is presented monthly to an Horry County resident caught in the act of recycling,” said Esther Murphy, director of Recycling and Corporate Affairs for the Solid Waste Authority. “It’s the Solid Waste Authority’s way of recognizing and thanking citizens who have made the effort to recycle. Through their recycling efforts, natural resources are saved, and the amount of waste being landfilled is reduced.”

Miller, a regular recycler at the Jackson Bluff Recycling Center, was both surprised and honored to receive this recognition.
