[greenyes] liquidated damages in recycling contracts

[Sharon_Gates@no.address]

Here are some questions for anybody out there who is on either end of a 
municipal recycling contract:  does your contract include liquidated 
damages for missed recycling collection?  If so, at what point do these 
damages kick in?  In other words, are damages paid if X number of accounts 
are missed, or if Y percent of accounts are missed?  What are the X and/or 
Y in your contract?  Are missed accounts counted per day, per week, per 
some other period?

Thanks,
