1)Kent business recycling program history:
The City of Kent garbage haulers,Tri-Star and Kent Disposal, along with private recycling
services provide the collection of recyclables and yard waste from the City commercial
sector. Recycling services available include collection of plastic, glass,aluminum,tin,mixed
paper,cardboard,newspaper, yard debris,wood waste,and construction,demolition,land
clearing (CDL)materials,and organics. The City plans to work closely with Pacific Energy
Institute(PEI),Tri-Star and Kent Disposal,and private recycling service providers on
expanding recycling collection for the materials outlined above and other"hard-to-recycle"
materials. Through this COP program the City will expand promotion and participation in
waste reduction,recycling,and recycled product procurement programs in the commercial
sector. The City will do this through the use of King County Solid Waste Division
informational materials,educational brochures, and providing recycling technical assistance
to City businesses.
e
2)Kent business recycling program goals:
The program goal is to help the City reach its waste reduction and recycling goals of 65
Percent of the waste stream by the year 2000.To do this Kent must increase the diversion of
recyclables from the commercial sector.The current commercial recycling rate is estimated
at between 40-45%.
The Kent Planning Department,through the issuing of business licenses,estimates that
roughly 3,500 businesses operate in Kent employing 57,157 people.
Through the recycling technical assistance the City will promote participation in waste
reduction,recycling, and recycled product procurement programs and increase the
knowledge of recycling alternatives in the commercial sector. The City will provide general
outreach to all types and sizes of businesses,with the focus on new Kent businesses.
3)Program activities and schedule:
A)Recycling Technical Assistance for Businesses: Promotion of this component of the
business outreach will be provided through the Kent Recycling Report Newsletter sent to all
Kent businesses in coordination with the King County Recycting Works business newsletter.
The City of Kent will coordinate its recycling technical assistance with the County's
Business Recycling Program by providing information and assistance to any Kent business
which requests information or assistance with their waste reduction and recycling program,
including Kent businesses which have been referred to the City by the County,and by using
the Green Works recognition program to motivate and reward businesses.Recycling
technical assistance will be provided to businesses over the phone and on-site as needed.

consultations,presentations to businesses,and help in determining waste reduction
techniques and recycled product uses.PEI will provide recycling technical assistance to

up assistance will be provided by both Tri-Star and Kent Disposal and PEI as needed and
tracked in a format required by the County. City and consultant staff will be responsible for
recycling technical assistance.This activity will begin in the first quarter of 1999 and
continue throughout the year.
