The fines are ridiculous, but this is not the only place where garbage and recycling are thrown into the same truck. A friend worked at a large chain restaurant. She said the recycling and garbage bins that customers use are only for show. They both get tossed in the same dumpster by staff.

Years ago I worked with a recycling company. They were a client of the company I was employed by. The overwhelming percentage of recycled plastics were mixed in with standard household waste and dumped in landfills. Less so for aluminum and cardboard, because they had some resale value.
