all of you who are working on getting local recycling programs started, I
wanted to let you know to celebrate this year’s America Recycles Day
(Nov. 15), OKRA and DEQ are hosting a recycling seminar for city officials on
Oct. 30 here at the DEQ. We will have motivational presentations as well
as informative sessions regarding costs & benefits and available
markets. I will send out more details as soon as they are available, but
wanted to let you know about it now so you can work on your local officials to
encourage their attendance.<o:p></o:p></span></font></b></p>
