Solid Waste Management
Environment, Energy and Transportation (EET) program staff have information covering a wide range of solid waste topics, including electronic waste, state bottle bill programs,and state waste tire programs. The burgeoning accumulation of solid waste of all types has focused state attention on the three R's of waste management: reduction in the source of waste, reuse of products and materials, and recycling. Other solid waste topics covered by EET staff include composting, litter and landfills.
