The remaining chapters of the annual report discuss the solid waste infrastructure in the state, partnering for the environment through grants to local governments and efforts on specific waste streams, litter collection efforts, the 2001 statewide recycling survey results, information on waste disposal and moderate risk waste. Some of the data is for 2001 (recycling and disposal information), while other data is current to late 2002 (litter pickup numbers and facility status).
