| Description | The Washington State Department of Ecology’s (Ecology) Waste 2 Resources Program has issued the Annual Report to the Washington State Legislature on Tires since 2002. Ecology is required by law to provide an annual tire report to the Legislature. Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 70.95.545 requires Ecology to report the increase or reduction in tire recycling and reuse rates in the state. This report tracks changes in those rates from 2002-10. These data provide overall and annual snapshots of tire recycling and reuse in Washington. Trends in tire reuse, recycling, and landfilling have all decreased in the past year compared to data collected in 2009. Use of tires for fuels increased for the second year in a row, likely due to demand from overseas markets. Ecology conducted waste tire pile cleanup efforts from 2007-10. A summary of those efforts is included in this report in Appendix A. |
