educating the public on identifying HHW
and reducing the
generation of these
wastes at the source. This program will
consist
of the
production of 2-3 videos
on source reduction which will air
as public
service
announcements. HHW
brochures/information wheels/literature will
also be
prepared
and distributed to the
citizens of Lodi.
The deadline for this application is Friday, February 22nd. As part of the
application, the attached resolution must be approved by City Council and submitted
to the California Integrated Waste Management Board.
