问题 It has been just over a year now since the city of Talbot partnered with local firm Construction Waste Processing (CWP) to undertake a massive cleanup project in the warehouse district and other underutilized urban areas. CWP is nationally recognized as a leader in the field of industrial waste recycling, having developed and patented a method of reprocessing concrete, steel, synthetics, and other materials that result from building demolition.
    Still, at the one-year mark the Talbot City Council called in an independent agency, Waste Management Watchdogs (WMW), to analyze CWP’s progress thus far. The results were released yesterday, and CWP earned a phenomenal score of 29 out of 30. Specifically, WMW judged their cleanup of demolished structures in the warehouse district as "excellent."
    This comes as good news for the city council, for it means the unprecedented investment of $45 million in the cleanup was wisely spent. CWP will be on the job for another two years, after which time a designer will be chosen to re-imagine and revitalize the warehouse district and downtown Talbot. Talks with several firms have already begun, most notably with the celebrated Canadian organization Celsus Urban Planners.
    Regardless of the outcome, however, residents of Talbot can be proud that homegrown Construction Waste Processing has performed so admirably, helping the environment at the same time as helping to put Talbot on the industrial services map.
