Description The Washington State legislature and Governor Inslee passed House Bill 1543 in 2019. The act required Ecology to create and implement a Statewide Recycling Contamination Reduction and Outreach Plan (CROP) based on best management practices. These Best Management Practices (BMPs) and resources are a supplement to the State CROP. This document provides strategies and references to studies, toolkits, and websites to support local governments with their ongoing contamination reduction goals.
