| Short Description |
The Community Litter Cleanup Program (CLCP) provides local governments with funding for litter pickup, illegal-dump cleanup, and litter-prevention education. This funding comes from the Waste Reduction, Recycling, and Model Litter Control Account. In 1998, the Legislature dedicated 20 percent of litter monies from this account to provide financial assistance to local governments. In addition to funding the CLCP, the account pays for other litter-collection programs, along with recycling, waste reduction, and sustainability efforts. Fifty percent of the account is allocated to the Department of Ecology (Ecology), for use in state litter-collection and prevention programs. Ecology and five other state agencies carry out these programs. The final 30 percent of the account is allocated to Ecology for waste reduction, recycling and sustainability efforts. Ecology has $2,604,000 available for litter and illegal-dump cleanup and education activities for the period July 1, 2007, through June 30, 2009. In addition to litter and illegal-dump cleanup allocations, $196,000 will be available statewide for capital purchases under the Tools and Trucks Program (Tools & Trucks).

| Abstract | Long Description |
These guidelines reflect changes to the 2007-2009 Community Litter Cleanup Program. Four details of the CLCP changed: the application period, the eligible applicants, capping the amount of litter funds for education/prevention, and the amount set aside for Tools & Trucks. Ecology surveyed recipients of 2005-2007 CLCP funds during the 2005-2007 cycle with regard to the application period. Over 50 percent of recipients favored a January application deadline. In this cycle, only county solid waste planning authorities can apply for funding. In previous cycles, city planning authorities were also eligible applicants. Chapter 1 presents more information about who is eligible to apply. CLCP funds to pay for litter and illegal dump education/prevention may not be more than 25% of the total contract amount. This cap will ensure adequate funding is used for cleanup. Tools & Trucks funding has decreased to 7 percent of the total CLCP allocation, down from 10 percent in the last cycle. |
