CURRENT RECYCLING NEWS
The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection delays payment of 2010 Municipal Tonnage Grants to allow 4th quarter receipts to be credited to the Recycling Fund. By waiting, the 2010 statewide grant total will be as much as 85% of the 2009 total.

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, in conjunction with the Association of New Jersey Recyclers, annually recognizes excellence in recycling. Our goal is to highlight the success of agencies, businesses, individuals and others who go beyond the norm to advance recycling and to make these examples available to others who may emulate them.
