Abstract Long Description

This annual solid waste report reflects conditions and activities in solid waste in Washington state. Chapter I discusses some emerging issues that Ecology is dealing with in the coming year including the progress toward revising the "State Solid Waste Management Plan", completion of revisions to the rule for solid waste facilities, chapter 173-350 WAC, Minimum Functional Standards for Solid Waste Handling (MFS), planned litter prevention strategy, work of the Recycling Assessment Panel.

The remaining chapters of the annual report discuss the solid waste infrastructure in the state, the implementation of solid waste activities through grants to local governments, the statewide recycling survey, litter collection efforts and information on waste disposal.

Some of the data is for 1999 (recycling and disposal information), while other data is current to late 2000 (litter pickup numbers and facility status).
