SANTA FE, NM - On June 28, 2022 the Santa Fe County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved a resolution authorizing the Free Disposal of Green Waste for County residents with valid permits at the Eldorado Convenience Center, Jacona Convenience Center, and Stanley Convenience Center the first full weekends of July, August, and September 2022. Please note that Bag Tags are not considered a valid permit.
