Washington County Cooperative Recycling Program
Year Nine,Annual Waste Reduction Plan
Fiscal Year 1998-1999
Mission:
The vvushington County Cooperative Recycling Program is an intergovernmental
organization formed by the Cities of Banks,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,
developing recycling and collection services which are provided in an efficient,
affordable and environmentally sound manner in order to achieve state mandated and
regional waste recovery goals. The Cooperative R`cyc;ing Program's goal is to reduce
duplicate efforts on the part of participating Local Governments in achieving recovery
goals and providing service. Priorities for the Cooperative Recycling Program are:
Complying with state law and achieving regional goals.
00 Providing education and information on solid waste,waste reduction,
recycling,and reuse.
" Providing program coordination with other jurisdictions and agencies.
Ensuring efficient, affordable,and consistent services for the public_
History:
The Cities and unincorporated County first mat 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. This
coalition was named the Washington County Cooperative Recycling Program
(WCCRP). A Technical Committee,composed of representatives from each of the
coalition's members was formed to guide the activities of the coalition. For the fiscal
year 1998-1999, the WCCRP Technical Committee has developed the Year 9 Waste
Reduction Program work plan to submit to Metro.
Stakeholders:
The WCCRP Local Governments work to provide the 330,081 residents and
approximately 6,200 businesses,alternatives to disposal,such as waste reduction,
reuse options,and recycling opportunities. Voter approval of state-wide ballot

measures which limits tax dollars for a variety of programs, reflects the desire of the
® public to receive cost effective services. Solid waste collection and recycling services
are provided by 22 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.
Sub-committees are formed in specific program planning areas; for example,
commercial recycling and waste reduction program planning,on an as-needed basis.
Washington County staff administer the program on a day-to-day basis and monitor
overall compliance w..h state law and regional goals. Each Local Government is
responsible for rate-setting and enforcement within their legal boundaries. The full
sccde of responsibility is outlined in Figure 1.

Since Local Governments retain authority over the rate-setting process, it is each Local
Government's responsibility to assess the fiscal impacts of the new waste reduction
programs included in the Year 9 Plan and the continuation of existing programs for their
franchised haulers.
Funding:
Disposal fees and franchise fees fund the area's waste reduction programs. Metro
collects a portion of the disposal fees paid by area residents and re-distributes a small
percentage of the money, in Annual Waste Reduction Program Grants,to Local

Each of the jurisdictions participating in the WCCRP assign their funding,through an
intergovernmental agreement,to Washington County to administer the WCCRP work
plan. In addition to the County's Waste Reduction Program Grant money,the County
contributes franchise fee generated funds,which matches the amount of Metro funds,
for use in administering the Cooperative Recycling Program. Table 1 reflects the
998-1999 level of funding for the program.
Priority will be given to complying with State requirements and maintaining programs
established in the first eight 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.
Work Plan:
The work plan for the WCCRP follows, as Attachment"B". Responsible parties for
