Short Description

This annual solid waste report reflects conditions and activities in solid waste in Washington State. Chapter I discusses some emerging issues that the Solid Waste & Financial Assistance Program (SW&FAP) is dealing with in the coming year as we move forward with the implementation of the Beyond Waste Plan.

The remaining chapters of the annual report discuss some specific activities underway as we start implementing Beyond Waste and our partnering for the environment through grants to local governments and efforts on specific waste streams, the solid waste infrastructure in the state, litter collection efforts, the 2004 statewide recycling survey results, information on waste disposal and moderate risk waste. Some of the data is for 2004 (recycling/diversion, disposal and moderate risk waste information), while other data is current to late 2005 (litter pickup numbers and facility status).
