Leaf & Yard Waste Collection Video Conference
DEP, along with the Professional Recyclers of Pennsylvania (PROP),
offered an interactive video conference March 25, on the topic of
Leaf & Yard Waste Collection. Participants learned about leaf waste
collection requirements for municipalities mandated to recycle by
Act 101, successful methods of leaf and yard waste collection and
how to start a leaf and yard waste collection program. The video conference
featured case studies, panel discussions, live questions and answers
between the panelists and downlink participants, and video production
including award-winning public services announcements produced by
Pennsylvania High School students on the subject of composting.
