The information clearinghouse service provides company representatives with technical literature, case studies, industry-specific approaches for waste reduction, recycling markets information, referrals and speakers for waste minimization presentations. The CWM is part of a national network of information sources on waste minimization. Technical assistance is provided through on-site waste minimization assessments. Companies are given site-specific advice on waste minimization possibilities. A follow-up report outlines specific options on waste reduction and recycling strategies.
Guidance is also available on establishing an ongoing waste minimization program.
