Orange County Landscape Management Outreach

CIWMB conducted a $60,000 landscape management outreach program with participating jurisdictions in Orange County. A regional steering committee, working in alliance with local public agencies, waste management organizations, landscape industry associations and educators organized and implemented a series of outreach activities and events. The goals of the outreach campaign were to:

• Reduce volume of green waste disposal in regional landfills.
• Increase usage of green materials source reduction and on-site management practices.
• Increase usage of recycled organic products in urban landscapes.
• Increase local jurisdictions’ green waste diversion rates to meet mandate requirements.
