County Manager Provite told commissioners on Nov. 17 that Craven County ranked number one in the state for common household recyclables per capita for the 2023–24 reporting year.
Provite said county residents and staff work — including curbside pickup — contributed to the result and that the county placed 11th in total public recycling per capita (208.3 pounds per person). She credited staff and singled out Solid Waste Director Steven and CARTS director Kelly Walker, who is retiring after more than 30 years of county service.
Provite thanked Walker for leading logistics during past disasters and noted county offices will be closed Nov. 27–28 for Thanksgiving. Commissioners responded with appreciation for the recycling data and praise for long-serving staff.
