TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE <br />The Council has established a technical assistance program to accelerate the <br />development of waste reduction and resource recovery projects and programs in <br />the Metropolitan Area. The assistance program is made up of staff from the <br />Council and will provide technical and planning help to counties, cities and <br />other groups. <br />The program initially will focus on efforts to divert recyclable materials and <br />yard wastes from landfills through recycling programs, mulching and compost- <br />ing. Assistance activities will include evaluating alternative reduction and <br />recycling methods and developing strategies to promote programs to policymakers <br />and the general public. The program will also provide information about waste <br />reuse and recovery techniques, serving as a clearinghouse for people who need <br />more information about these methods. <br />H4 <br />
