  include  marketing arrangements and appropriate procedures to ensure the
  recovery of waste for which the full avoided costs of proper collection,

  or  greater than the cost of collection, transportation and sale of said
  material less the amount received from the sale of said  material.  This
  program  may  be  phased  in,  utilizing  those  office  facilities most
  conducive to operation of a source separation program but shall be fully
  implemented by July first, nineteen hundred ninety-one.
