The North Okanagan landfill is seeing a record number of customers at this time of year, and the regional district is asking people to limit their non-essential trips amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Customers at the landfill have been experiencing hour-long lineups and extended wait times, according to the Regional District of North Okanagan.
“Behaviours contributing to an unsafe work environment, including abusive or offensive language, will not be tolerated,” the regional district said in a news release.
