The Recycling and Market Development Unit
The Recycling and Market Development Unit addresses
a wide variety of issues pertaining to recycling, waste reduction and
recycled product procurement. Among other activities, the unit helps create
and expand end markets for recyclable materials, promotes source reduction
(also referred to as waste reduction) and product stewardship, coordinates
the activities of the New Jersey WasteWise Business Network, develops
educational and promotional initiatives on behalf of recycling and supports
the purchase of recycled products.
Grants, Loan and Data Unit
The Grants, Loan and Data Unit administers the recycling tonnage
grant and reporting program, the local tire management fund and the Solid
