As part of a Zero Waste initiative adopted by the Cowichan Valley Regional District (CVRD) the Peerless Incinerator has been decommissioned and the site has been cleaned and environmentally sealed from the ash disposal. Windley Contracting Ltd. renovated and built the addition to the old incinerator building, constructing a new scale house with two scales, and a utility building with public washrooms and staff support rooms.
The project was completed in January 2014. The CVRD expects to develop and promote tours to the facility for schools and the community to encourage recycling in a significant program under the theme of Zero Waste.
