| Description | Washington’s Business Organics Management Act (BOMA), which took effect in 2024, requires many food service businesses to establish organics diversion programs. To support effective implementation and compliance, the Department of Ecology partnered with PRR to understand the unique needs, challenges, and opportunities within the food service sector. This research combined 17 in-depth interviews with restaurant owners, managers, and business association leaders across Washington, including Spanish-speaking participants, with a comprehensive literature review of outreach efforts from other states and organizations. Together, these components identified best practices, common barriers, and effective messaging strategies for engaging food service businesses. |
