Materials Management Planning
Materials management planning is a program designed to guide the management of counties’ materials, with an emphasis on increasing sustainable practices, such as recycling and composting, in addition to ensuring safe disposal options.
These materials can include food waste, yard clippings, recyclables, other source separated materials, and solid waste.
Materials Management Plan grants
Grants are available to counties for the development, implementation, and maintenance of the new Materials Management Plans (MMP). To apply, counties should submit a work program approved by their Materials Management Planning Committee (MMPC).
