However, municipalities that have implemented PAYT have anecdotally reported people driving to other non-PAYT municipalities to dispose of their garbage for free.</li>

                     <li>We recommend contacting currently contracted waste management companies to get data on the recycling contamination rate (tonnage of solid waste that has ended up in recycling) in municipalities that have implemented PAYT. If the tonnage of solid waste in the recycling stream has increased post-PAYT, as some of our interviewees suspect, then PAYT may not be effective in reducing solid waste disposal.</li>
-                    <li>Perform a comprehensive cost-benefit analysis to evaluate the financial implications of PAYT for the city and its residents.</li>
+                    <li>We recommend calculating pre- and post-PAYT recycling tonnage in municipalities that have implemented PAYT.</li>
+                    <li>With the understanding that municipality data is limited, we recommend analyzing the effectiveness of PAYT as it differs by type (bag, tag, cart, hybrid).</li>
