  3. Resource Plan to Reduce Greenhouse Gases • The focus is on materials and generators that can yield significant greenhouse gas reduction through a series of early actions, while minimizing the need for additional legislative authority. • Commercial, residential, and self-haul generators would be subject to information, incentives, and programs to divert selected materials.

  4. Resource Plan to Reduce Greenhouse Gases • CIWMB would take responsibility to increase awareness of greenhouse gas reduction links to increased recycling and composting; to promote recycling and composting the selected materials; and to increase facility and program capacity and effectiveness.
