| Abstract | Long Description |
These guidelines are intended to assist local governments develop and revise comprehensive solid waste management plans. The Department of Ecology (Ecology) believes: that using these guidelines will also result in improved plan quality and will expedite Ecology's review of the draft plans. These guidelines reflect changes in legislation and the solid waste arena, and therefore supersede the 1990 edition (WDOE 90-11). In 1989 the Legislature passed ESHB1671, the "Waste Not Washington Act," directed Ecology to refocus its efforts at reducing and recycling the maximum amount of waste possible. As part of the implementation of this legislation, Ecology update the Guidelines for the Development of Local Solid Waste Management Plans and Plan revisions to reflect this increased emphasis on waste reduction and recycling. |
