General

1. General instruction B(3) of the Form 40-F requires you to file audited annual financial statements and accompanying management’s discussion and analysis under the cover of the Form 40-F. In future filings, please provide the audited financial statements and accompanying management’s discussion and analysis in your Form 40-F rather than incorporating by reference these items into your Form 40-F.

In addition, as requested in your letter of December 9, 2011, we confirm that:

· We are responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in our filing;

· Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and

· We may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

Yours truly,

Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd.
