BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) _ A group is pushing a citywide curbside

recycling program for Bismarck.

The Missouri Valley Resource Council plans to submit a petition on

Tuesday to the Bismarck City Commission.

Scott Skokos says his group has collected 660 signatures in

favor of curbside recycling. Skokos says the group favors curbside

recycling because people would not have to drive to a recycling

site. And he says recycling would increase the life of the city's

landfill.

Bismarck City Commissioner Mike Seminary says the commission

will hold a public hearing on the plan.
