A brief description of the pre-consumer food waste composting program:

The university has a pre-consumer food waste composting program applied to the primary dining services contractor and other food services corporations on the campus. The program consist of to addition of specific containers in the kitchens and to promotion of good practices by a specialized professional employee. Considering that Quebec City does not have a city wide composting program, the university ships its food and other organic waste to a site thirty kilometers away operated a professional private contractor. The program is in place since 2007 and is working very well in a majority of kitchens.
