The roots of the CROP

In response to the seismic shocks to the recycling system caused by China Sword, Washington state passed the Sustainable Recycling Act (HB1543) in 2019.

  • Market Development - created the Recycling Development Center to

strengthen and expand secondary material markets in Washington and the NW region.

  • Cleaning up the stream – requires Ecology and local governments to

develop Contamination Reduction and Outreach Plans with the goal

  • f creating a consistently clean secondary material feedstocks to

produce new products.

slide-27
SLIDE 27

What the law says

  • Ecology must create a statewide Contamination Reduction and

Outreach Plan (CROP) by July 1, 2020. The State CROP was released on August 7, 2020 for public comment until August 31, 2020. Publication is expected in September, 2020.

  • Counties with a population of over 25,000 – and cities in those

counties with independent SW Plans - must include a CROP in their local Solid Waste Management Plan by July 1, 2021. Given the delay in releasing the State CROP, adjustments can be made to this deadline if needed.

RCW 70A.205.405 and RCW 70A.205.070

slide-28
SLIDE 28

What the law says

  • Counties can adopt the state’s CROP in lieu of creating their own plan.

The State CROP includes a Local CROP template that jurisdictions can cut-and-paste into their Solid Waste Management Plans to meet the requirements of the law.

  • Ecology must provide technical assistance and guidance to help local

jurisdictions determine the extent of contamination in their regional recycling and to develop CROPs. The State CROP includes a variety of tools and resources for local governments to use to develop and implement their own CROPs. It also includes recommendations to work to secure additional funding and resources in the future.

RCW 70A.205.405 and RCW 70A.205.070

*includes counties with 25,000 or more people and cities with independent SW Plans within those counties

27 counties and 4 cities with independent SW Plans are required to prepare their own CROPS*

SLIDE 31

Some CROP Basics

Who is the State CROP for? The State CROP was developed to primarily serve as a guide for cities and counties in Washington to partner with other participants in the recycling system to reduce the costs and impacts

  • f contamination on their recycling programs.

What contamination does the State CROP address? Contamination of the “traditional” recycling stream from:

  • Single-family and multifamily residences
  • Dropbox collection sites
  • Commercial recycling programs
slide-32
SLIDE 32

Focused on “inbound” contamination

Inbound contamination is the material delivered primarily to MRFs for processing on its way to an end-market. It is the material that residents, businesses, communities, and haulers control.

slide-33
SLIDE 33

What’s n not included in t the C CROP

  • Organics and C&D contamination reduction strategies
  • A list of materials to collect or not collect for recycling
  • Initiatives to reduce contamination at MRFs and mills
  • Market development initiatives
  • Initiatives directly addressing plastic waste and

pollution

slide-34
SLIDE 34

Principles and Assumptions

  • Prevention first
  • Recycling is a means to an end
  • Contamination flows downstream
  • Good data is foundational
  • Recycling is not free, and the costs shouldn’t be hidden
  • Collection and processing are not recycling
  • Both quality and quantity are possible
  • Regional planning and coordination are key
slide-35
SLIDE 35

Roots causes o

  • f c

f contaminati tion

Complacency

The relatively high prices some countries were paying for our materials, combined with their low quality standards and the easy, cheap access we had to foreign markets caused complacency.

Complexity

The rapidly increasing complexity and scale of consumer packaging types and designs is far outpacing the capacity of local recycling programs, MRFs, and secondary material industries to adapt.

slide-36
SLIDE 36

Roots causes of contamination

Commingling, Landfill Aversion, and the Diversion Trap

Recycling is still seen by many as a solution to a landfill or waste crisis. This can undermine solutions further upstream like reuse and waste prevention. The goal became recycling more, not generating less, resulting in “wishful recycling” and a dearth of data on contamination.

slide-37
SLIDE 37

The diversion t trap

  • Counting all the stuff collected in recycling bins as being

recycled including the stuff that was landfilled or burned here or in the countries where it was shipped to be recycled.

  • The goal was to collect more material for recycling and

increase our recycling rates.

  • As a result we didn’t collect data on “real” recycling or on

the growing levels of contamination.

The Harmonization Choir

Growing agreement on a priority set of materials and the need for harmonization of policies and messaging

  • Paper (including office and notebook

paper, newspaper, mail, catalogues, magazines, and cereal or cracker boxes)

  • Cardboard
  • Plastic Bottles and Jugs (clear, colored, and natural)
  • Steel and Aluminum Cans

  • Department of Ecology - BMPs & Recycle Right Campaign
  • Washington Association of Counties Solid Waste Management

  • Washington State Refuse and Recycling Association - List of

suggested materials to include in commingled programs.

  • King County Responsible Recycling Task Force - Framework calls for

regional policy alignment and harmonized messaging.

Statewide Action Plan

Creating a cleaner stream

  • Promoting alignment and harmonization across recycling

programs statewide.

  • Encouraging and supporting regional solid waste planning

and aligned or joint contracting for services.

  • Gathering and sharing more comprehensive data to

measure the performance of the recycling system.

  • Pursuing legislative, funding, and policy solutions including

full funding for the Local Solid Waste Financial Assistance program.

slide-46
SLIDE 46

The Local CROP Template

11 Steps to a Cleaner Stream

  • 1. Stakeholder engagement
  • 2. Develop an implementation plan and secure or

allocate funding and assistance

  • 3. Inventory current recycling collection services and

programs

  • 4. Prioritize the recycling program(s) to focus on first
  • 5. Define what data to collect to determine baseline

levels of recycling contamination

slide-47
SLIDE 47

The Local CROP Template

11 Steps to a Cleaner Stream

  • 6. Gather baseline recycling contamination data
  • 7. Identify key contaminants and their costs and impacts
  • 8. Establish acceptable materials lists
  • 9. Develop and implement contamination reduction

education and outreach strategies

  • 10. Explore contamination reduction strategies beyond

education and outreach

  • 11. Evaluate the effectiveness of anti-contamination

strategies and set next steps

Next Steps

  • Public comment closed on Monday, August 31.
  • State CROP published – September, 2020 - expected

by the week of September 13. Timing will depend on the comments Ecology receives.

  • Ongoing enhancement to BMPs and CROP Resource

Library.

  • Ongoing assistance to local governments by Ecology

Planners and Recycling Coordinators to develop and implement local CROPs.
