 for the materials management sector to reduce recycling stream contamination and to foster additional materials diversion initiatives. In addition to insights provided by the operations featured on the tour, the tour group itself will consist of recycling
 coordinators and other waste reduction professionals, affording the opportunity for networking, brainstorming, and collaboration on SMM programs for the Long Island region.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
