Product Stewardship Strategies for Local Governments Conference - Webinar

 Seattle Public Utilities, the Northwest Product Stewardship Council, and U.S. EPA Region 10 are hosting a day-long conference to look at how local and state governments can use product stewardship strategies to reduce waste and increase recycling. The conference will provide an overview of product stewardship policies and regulations currently in use in the U.S. and Canada and will provide examples of local and state product stewardship programs, describing how they were developed and funded.
The conference will feature presentations by experts with hands-on experience in developing and managing product stewardship programs at the local government level. Each presentation will be followed by discussions and Q&A sessions led by Puget Sound area policymakers. In-person attendance is by invitation only – please contact Dick Lilly at Seattle Public Utilities (dick.lilly@seattle.gov).
