Abstract Long Description

The CPG Program funds two types of grants; Solid and Hazardous Waste Planning and Implementation Grants and Solid Waste Enforcement Grants. Solid and Hazardous Waste Planning and Implementation Grants go to planning jurisdictions to:

  • Write or update their Local Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan (LCSWMP) or Local Hazardous Waste Plan (LHWP)
  • Implement their LCSWMP or LHWP Solid Waste Enforcement Grants go to jurisdictional health departments and districts to enforce solid waste regulations.

    Ecology awards each type of grant in two cycles; the regular cycle and the off-set cycle.

    1. The regular cycle is for grants in effect from January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2007. Ecology allocates regular cycle funds based on the formula in WAC 173-312-080.

  • Twenty percent (20%) of the funds are for Solid Waste Enforcement Grants, and
  • Eighty percent (80%) of the funds are for Solid and Hazardous Waste Planning and Implementation Grants.

    2. The off-set cycle is for grants in effect from January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2008. Grants awarded during the off-set cycle are competitive.

    As compared to the 2004-05 CPG Grant Guidelines, the primary changes to the CPG Program are:

  • The minimum threshold score for grant applications;
  • The application forms;
  • The period of the off-set cycle;
  • The criteria for the off-set cycle;
  • The process for awarding funds in the off-set cycle; and
  • Report forms and information sharing.

    The primary driver behind the changes to the CPG program, during the last grant cycle, was the 2001 Legislative investigative report titled, "Investing in the Environment: Environmental Quality Grant & Loan Programs." This report resulted in House Bill 1785 that requires Ecology to implement JLARC recommendations for changes to the CPG Program.

    The CPG Workgroup gathered input from local governments at the 2004 State Solid Waste Summit and through workgroup meetings. The CPG Workgroup is a committee of local government grant recipients and Ecology grant staff who work together to refine and enhance the CPG Program.

    Changes to the CPG Program have been influenced by input from grant recipients, Ecology staff, the new Beyond Waste Plan (Washington State Hazardous Waste Management Plan and Solid Waste Management Plan, Publication # 04-07-022), and direction from the Legislature (HB 1785).
