Director John Frederick says a large portion of the money will be used to fund equipment that’s used to screen compost at two of the county’s composting sites. Frederick says with ongoing state budget cuts he’s thankful the DEP still funds environmental programs.
Portions of the money will also be used for programming and outreach efforts. The DEP awarded more $17.8-million in grant dollars to 131 municipalities for their recycling efforts.
