The Solid Waste and Sustainability Subcommittees have been consolidated to form the Materials Management Subcommittee. The Board of Directors' decision to make this organizational change is consistent with ASTSWMO's 2009 Strategic Plan, which incorporated materials management in the Association's mission statement. The reorganization recognizes the importance of incorporating materials management and sustainability into the traditional waste management programs without losing focus on core programs.
Subcommittee members' contact information is provided as a resource for other State and federal waste and materials managers. Please direct all press inquiries to Acting Executive Director Dania Rodriguez.
