IDEM is hosting a series of quarterly meetings to discuss issues, share resources, and find solutions to current challenges facing recyclers and Indiana's recycling industry. The purpose is to facilitate solutions to help Indiana meet its goal of a 50% recycling rate while helping to spur economic growth in recycling markets.
Recycling stakeholders across Indiana are invited to attend, including solid waste haulers, municipalities, recyclers, manufacturers, composters, educational institutions, non-profit advocacy groups, solid waste management districts, environmental contractors, industry groups, and others.
Join in June 22 from 2 to 4 p.m. via Zoom for the next discussion on funding for recycling programs. Transportation, contamination fees, and other processing hurdles are all causing recycling costs to rise. Speakers will discuss upcoming grant opportunities on both the state and federal level as well as funding mechanisms to run a successful recycling program.
