MISSOURI SWMD DISTRICT ANNUAL REPORTFISCAL PERIOD: JULY 1ST - (PREVIOUS YEAR) TO JUNE 30TH - (CURRENT YEAR) | 2019

District L - St.Louis - Jefferson Solid Waste Management District

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT DISTRICT ANNUAL REPORT

1 (a). What waste goals did the district have for the fiscal year period and what actions did the districts take to achieve these goals?

A primary District goal is to reduce the amount of waste being generated for disposal wherever possible in our region. The District goalsinclude reducing waste, maximizing recycling, expanding composting, supporting ongoing education in schools, businesses and communities,supporting ongoing regional household hazardous waste management programs, and developing additional end-use markets from recoveredmaterials. The District strives to maximize the economic impact of the recycling industry which provides jobs, tax revenues and other economicbenefits. The District also tries to maximize environmental benefits from the recycling industry, including conserving natural resources, savingenergy, reducing pollution, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The District implemented its annual grant program to encourage andsupport projects that reduce, reuse, and recycle waste. The District also provides ongoing information, education and technical assistance toenhance the recycling industry in the St Louis region. All of these efforts contribute to reducing the amount of waste generated for disposal. TheDistrict provides grant funds and staff support to achieve program goals.

1 (b). What waste goals does the district have for the upcoming fiscal period and what actions does the district plan to take to achieve thesegoals. Please include the types of grant proposals that will be sought for the upcoming period to assist in meeting these goals.

The District actively solicits as many grant proposals as possible to maximize the ability to work on all subject areas, and leverage as muchadditional funding as possible. The District receives requests for assistance that are several times greater than the amount of funding available.The District will also continue to provide information, education, and technical assistance to the maximum extent possible. The District goalremains to reduce the amount of waste being generated for disposal wherever possible. Waste reduction projects, including education projects,are eligible projects for the District Grant Program.

2 (a). What recycling goals did the district have for the fiscal year period and what actions did the district take to achievethese goals?

2 (b). What recycling goals does the district have for the upcoming fiscal year period and what actions does the district plan to take to achievethese goals? Please include the types of grant proposals that will be sought for the upcoming period to assist in meeting these goals?

District priorities will continue to expand on the areas mentioned above. Additional emphasis on developing new and expanded local end-usemarkets is important for ensuring sustainability and growth of the recycling industry and maximizing the economic potential of one of Missouri'sprimary green industries. Efforts to reduce contamination and improve processing of single-stream materials will continue to be a focus in 2020.

3 (a). What resource recovery goals did the district have for the fiscal year period and what actions did the district take to achieve thee goals?

The District is supportive of resource recovery but does not have adequate resources to make any significant contributions to this effort.Resource recovery programs are in a good position to tap other resources in an effort to expand their efficiency and utilization. EPA reports thatMissouri landfills emit over two million tons of methane on an annual basis. Given the extremely dangerous nature of these gases, minimizinglandfill methane generation and maximizing recovery continues to be the most prudent course of action.

3 (b). What resource recovery goals does the district have for the upcoming fiscal year period and what actions does the district plan to take toachieve thee goals? Please include the types of grant proposals that will be sought for the upcoming period to assist in meeting these goals.

Resource recovery programs are an eligible grant activity as a potential application for grants. With limited resources and a lower priority forthese types of projects, it is unlikely that district funds would be awarded for any projects. No applications were received.

4. Summarize the types of projects and results during the fiscal year, including previous fiscal years as part of the 5 yearreporting. (add additional rows if needed)

1 (a). What waste goals did the district have for the fiscal year period and what actions did the districts take to achieve these goals?

1 (a) A primary District goal is to reduce the amount of waste being generated for disposal wherever possible in our region. The District goals include reducing waste, maximizing recycling, expanding composting, supporting ongoing education in schools, businesses and communities, supporting ongoing regional household hazardous waste management programs, and developing additional end-use markets from recovered materials. The District strives to maximize the economic impact of the recycling industry which provides jobs, tax revenues and other economic benefits. The District also tries to maximize environmental benefits from the recycling industry, including conserving natural resources, saving energy, reducing pollution, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The District implemented its annual grant program to encourage and support projects that reduce, reuse, and recycle waste. The District also provides ongoing information, education and technical assistance to enhance the recycling industry in the St Louis region. All of these efforts contribute to reducing the amount of waste generated for disposal. The District provides grant funds and staff support to achieve program goals.

1 (b). What waste goals does the district have for the upcoming fiscal period and what actions does the district plan to take to achieve these goals. Please include the types of grant proposals that will be sought for the upcoming period to assist in meeting these goals.

1 (b) The District actively solicits as many grant proposals as possible to maximize the ability to work on all subject areas, and leverage as much additional funding as possible. The District receives requests for assistance that are several times greater than the amount of funding available. The District will also continue to provide information, education, and technical assistance to the maximum extent possible. The District goal remains to reduce the amount of waste being generated for disposal wherever possible. Waste reduction projects, including education projects, are eligible projects for the District Grant Program.

2 (A) WHAT RECYCLING GOALS DID THE DISTRICT HAVE FOR THE FISCAL YEAR PERIOD AND WHAT ACTIONS DID THE DISTRICT TAKE TO ACHIEVE THESE GOALS?

The District goal is to maximize recycling throughout the region. The recycling industry is in a period of significant uncertainty due to the disruption of recycling markets for certain materials due to the National Sword policy being implemented in China. This situation is in a period of flux, but it could cause significant short-term problems for co-mingled recycling programs. One of the two major single-stream recycling processors closed in 2018. The District has funded a regional education campaign to keep communities informed and is also providing some short-term financial support through a plan implementation project. Additional education efforts may be needed to focus on reducing contamination in single stream recycling programs. Longer term challenges are to significantly expand the Missouri Market Development program to develop Missouri-based end-use markets for recovered materials.

Progress continues despite the significant reduction in financial resources available since 2005. The amount of funding available to support the growth of the industry is carefully allocated to support all aspects of the District mission and leverage additional resources. To illustrate, selected highlights are discussed below.

Reducing contamination in residential recycling remains a priority and much progress has been made as single-stream recycling collection continues to function. Single-stream collection now predominates for residential collection in the region. A major educational effort is underway to reduce contamination in single-stream collection programs. It is too soon to tell if single-stream will be able to continue as it has been, or if recycling collection program changes will be needed in the future. Education to continue to expand participation and reduce contamination are needed for the next several years. Educational efforts to reinforce participation are occurring, but more education will be needed, including programming to reduce contamination.

Commercial recycling also continues to grow in the amount of materials being diverted. Businesses throughout the region, state, and country continue to green their operations, and recycling is always one of the first steps toward sustainability. Commercial recycling streams are generally cleaner than residential single-stream recycling materials and are better able to be marketed.

Recycling markets fluctuations and sluggish markets continue to be an impediment, and there is an economic opportunity to turn these resources into value-added products at the local level. Local end-use market development will continue to increase in importance as recycling grows as a global industry. Additional financial resources could really help this effort. More recycled product manufacturing could have an important impact in the region and state in terms of jobs and tax revenues.

2 (b). What recycling goals does the district have for the upcoming fiscal year period and what actions does the district plan to take to achieve these goals? Please include the types of grant proposals that will be sought for the upcoming period to assist in meeting these goals?

2 (b) District priorities will continue to expand on the areas mentioned above. Additional emphasis on developing new and expanded local end-use markets is important for ensuring sustainability and growth of the recycling industry and maximizing the economic potential of one of Missouri's primary green industries. Efforts to reduce contamination and improve processing of single-stream materials will continue to be a focus in 2020.

3 (a). What resource recovery goals did the district have for the fiscal year period and what actions did the district take to achieve these goals?

3 (a) The District is supportive of resource recovery but does not have adequate resources to make any significant contributions to this effort. Resource recovery programs are in a good position to tap other resources in an effort to expand their efficiency and utilization. EPA reports that Missouri landfills emit over two million tons of methane on an annual basis. Given the extremely dangerous nature of these gases, minimizing landfill methane generation and maximizing recovery continues to be the most prudent course of action.

3 (b). What resource recovery goals does the district have for the upcoming fiscal year period and what actions does the district plan to take to achieve these goals? Please include the types of grant proposals that will be sought for the upcoming period to assist in meeting these goals.

3(b) Resource recovery programs are an eligible grant activity as a potential application for grants. With limited resources and a lower priority for these types of projects, it is unlikely that district funds would be awarded for any projects. No applications were received.

8. Describe your district's grant proposal evaluation process.

Grant Proposals are evaluated in accordance with grant regulations set forth by DNR. Proposals are evaluated individually by executive board members including criteria in DNR regulations. Individual board member scores are tallied and averaged to generate a ranked list of projects. Executive Board members review ranked grants and allocate appropriate funds to projects. Funds are allocated to leverage as much additional investment as possible and fund as many projects as possible. Most projects only receive partial funding of the requested amounts. The Executive Board approves the list of projects with funding levels. These are submitted to DNR for review.
