Thomas Powell of BWP Consulting stands next to some of the used tires collected during a recycling opportunity put on by the Thompson-Nicola Regional District on Saturday at Rotary Sports Park in Clearwater.
Any old passenger vehicle tires or transport tractor-trailer tires (no agricultural tires), with or without rims, could be dropped off.
Two co-workers who were with Powell were not present for the photo as they had taken a load of tires away. BWP Consulting is the TNRD's mosquito control contractor and getting rid of old tires is seen as a way to reduce the number of mosquito breeding sites.
