Washington County Cooperative Recycling Program
Year Four, Annual Waste Reduction Program
Fiscal Year 1993-1994
Mission:
The Washington County Cooperative Recycling Program is an intergovernmental
organization formed by the cities of Banks, Beaverton, Cornelius, Durham,
Forest Grove, Hillsboro, King City, North Plains, Sherwood, Tigard, Tualatin,
Wilsonville and unincorporated Washington County.
The Cooperative Recycling Program is committed to providing solid waste
management, including waste reduction program planning, public education,
recycling and collection services in an efficient, affordable and
environmentally sound manner in order to achieve state mandated and regional
waste recovery goals. The Cooperative Recycling Program's goal is to reduce
duplicate efforts o�, the part of participating jurisdictions in achieving
recovery goals and providing service. Priorities for the Cooperative
Recycling Program are:
® Complying with state law.
Providing education and information on solid waste, waste
reduction, recycling and reuse.
® Providing program coordination with other jurisdictions and
agencies.
® Assuring efficient, affordable and consistent services for the
public.
History:
The cities and unincorporated county first met in 1989 to develop a joint
approach to yard debris recycling. In 1990 the cities and county again met
and formed a coalition of governments interested in developing a coordinated
approach to providing services and programs, thereby conserving both fiscal
and environmental resources. For the fourth year, fiscal year 1993-1994, the
Washington County Cooperative Recycling Program has developed the yearly waste
reduction work plans to submit to Pietro.
Stakeholders:
The Washington County Cooperative Recycling Program (WCCRP) governments work
to provide the 349,626 residents and approximately 8800 commercial
establishments, alternatives to disposal , such as waste reduction and reuse
--Muni
MVM 20—21,1111111:11111111
INV
options and recycling opportunities. Recent voter approval of a state-wide
ballot measure which limits tax dollars for a variety of programs, reflects
the desire of the public to receive cost effective services. Solid waste
ollection and recyciing services are provided by 26 franchised haulers and a
number of recycling firms and processors.
Program Structure:
The Cooperative Recycling Program is guided by the Technical Committee, whose
members are representatives from each city and the unincorporated County.
Washington County staff administer the program on a day to day basis and
monitor overall compliance with state law and regional goals. Each local
jurisdiction is responsible for rate setting and enforcement within their
legal boundaries. The full scope of responsibility is outlined below in
Figure 1. Current active committees within the program are Finance, Education
dliii PFV-110t'Gil, and Waste Reduction. Sub-committees are formed in specific
program planning areas; for example, commercial recycling and yard debris
recycling collection, on an as-needed basis.

Since local governments retain authority over the rate setting process, it is
each government's responsibility to assess the fiscal impacts of the new waste
reduction programs included in the Year 4 Plan and the continuation of
existing programs, for their franchised haulers.
Funding:
Disposal fees and franchise fees fund the area's waste reduction programs_
The Metropolitan Service District (Metro) collects a portion of the disposal
fees paid by area residents and re-distributes a small percentage of the
money, in Challenge Grants, to the local governments in order to conduct waste
reduction activities. Challenge Grants are awarded on a per capita basis to
each city and county (see Table 1).
2
Edo
Each of the jurisdictions participating in the Cooperative Recycling Program
assign their funding through an intergovernmental agreement, to Washington
County to administer the Cooperative Recycling Prograi,i n In additioto the
County's Challenge Grant money, the County contributes franchise fee generated
funds, which has amounted to approximately 44% of the total budget for use in
administrating the Cooperative Recycling Program- This year Metro's Challenge
Grant funding was cut 30% from the projected funding levels. The County had
budgeted funds based on Metro's original projected amounts and remains
committed to this sum. For this fiscal year, the County's support amounts to
56% of the Cooperative Recycling Program budget. Table 1 reflects the
1993-1994 level of funding for the program.
Funding cuts may impact the WCCRP's ability to add new programs. Priority
will be given to complying with State requirements and maintaining programs
established in the first three years of the waste reduction program. The
WCCRP governments should assess the impact of reduced funding on programs and
determine whether new funding sources should be secured.
