Waste Advantage reports on Michigan communities joining state, regional and national partners to combat recycling contamination and improve the capture of high-quality recyclables across the Great Lakes State. Partnering with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) and The Recycling Partnership, a national nonprofit dedicated to transforming recycling for good, as well as material recovery facilities (MRFs), haulers, and resource and solid waste management authorities, communities will develop and implement operational and educational strategies to improve the quality of their recycling streams, leading to cleaner recycling practices and a reduction in the amount of contaminated materials improperly going into recycling.
