TAJIGUAS LANDFILL TOUR


THIS IS A PRIVATE TOUR FOR SBWiSTEM! 
RSVP REQUIRED


WHEN:  Monday, June 24, 2024

TIME:  11:30am - 12:30pm

WHERE:  14470 Calle Real, Goleta, CA 93117
(We will set up a carpool meetup location in SB and Goleta)


Join us for a behind the scenes tour of our local Tajiguas Landfill and the Santa Barbara County ReSource Center; which recovers recyclables and organics from our local municipal waste. The facility is state of the art, and hands-down one of the most interesting engineering projects in the County. While there, you’ll also enjoy panoramic views of the SB Channel and the islands. A County guide will explain the intricacies of the facilities, and will be available to answer all of your questions about how recycleables and organics are handled, locally.

If you’re interested in environmental engineering; or if you want to how our local municipality handles household waste; or if you’re curious about what happens to our recyclables and organic wastes - this facility tour is for you.
