The annual Excellence Awards Program recognizes outstanding solid waste programs and facilities that demonstrate environmentally and economically sound solid waste management practices. The award-winning programs and facilities use effective technologies and processes, safeguard health and safety, and include successful public education and outreach programs.
The County’s integrated solid waste management system consists of:
- interrelated programs that promote waste reduction and recycling;
- a full range of brick-and-mortar facilities -- including a recycling center, transfer station, household hazardous waste center, yard trim composting facility and a resource recovery facility; and
- a combination of modern collection services and top-quality customer service focus.
