Short Description

The Litter Task Force was formed in July 1997 to examine the effectiveness of litter control in Washington as it is carried out in accordance with the Waste Reduction, Recycling, and Model Litter Control Act (RCW 70.93 - see Appendix A). The assignment was to evaluate today′s system, and recommend changes that would significantly improve litter prevention and pickup into the future. The Task Force was to recommend to the Legislature and the Department of Ecology (Ecology) areas of improvement that could be implemented through statutory, regulatory, or policy changes. The specific recommendations agreed to by the Task Force are included in Section 4.
