Description Section 104 of House Bill 1799 of the 2022 legislative session required the Department of Ecology (Ecology) to contract with a third-party consultant to conduct a study on the adequacy of local government solid waste management funding and make recommendations.

The law further required Ecology to include the Washington Association of County Solid Waste Managers (WACSWM); the Association of Washington Cities (AWC); an association that represents the private sector solid waste industry, who in this case was the Washington Refuse and Recycling Association (WRRA); Zero Waste Washington and other stakeholders. Working with these groups, we scoped the study and reviewed the consultant's findings and recommendations prior to submittal to the legislature.
