Overview The Sustainable Materials Recovery Program (SMRP) is designed to increase the diversion of materials from the solid waste stream through waste reduction, reuse, recycling, and composting programs, and to decrease the toxicity of the waste stream through household hazardous waste (HHW) diversion and use of environmentally preferred products (EPP). Matching funds are not required for this opportunity. There are six (6) SMRP grant categories offered in the Spring 2025 cycle: • Drop-off Recycling Equipment • Food Waste Collection Carts • Pay-As-You-Throw Program Funds • Regional Small-Scale Initiatives • Recycling Dividends Program (RDP) • Waste Reduction / Organics Capacity / Permanent Household Hazardous Waste Facility Project Proposals
