Waste Reduction and Savings for Municipalities Hosted by NVCOG and SCRCOG: Curbside Collection Event
January 17 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am EST
The Naugatuck Valley Council of Governments (NVCOG) and the South Central Regional Council of Governments (SCRCOG) are hosting two forums that will inform municipal staff and elected officials on the implementation and successes of Organics Diversion & Unit Based Pricing (UBP).
The curbside collection event hosted by SCRCOG is scheduled for Wednesday, January 17th at 10am. You may register for this webinar at https://tinyurl.com/CurbsideCollectionForum. The event is focused on implementing organics diversion and UBP with curbside pickup programs.
These forums follow the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection’s (CT DEEP) efforts to address the state’s shrinking waste capacity by reducing waste. Organics Diversion and education on UBP are being piloted in 15 Connecticut towns through grant funds from the Sustainable Materials Management (SMM) Grant program provided by DEEP.
