Report on 1998 SCORE Programs

 Report on 1998 SCORE Programs
Appendix A: Two-page summaries for each SCORE reporter; a snapshot of current solid waste activities, historical perspective, and future plans. 
 Appendix B: SCORE survey data

This Report on 1998 SCORE Programs (Jan. 2000) presents data and analysis of state, county and municipal solid waste management activities in Minnesota that involved SCORE funding in 1998.

The report was prepared using data from all 87 counties in Minnesota, and the Western Lake Superior Sanitary District. Information was submitted to the Office of Environmental Assistance (OEA) through the annual SCORE survey, which contains sections for annual program information, finance and administration, source reduction, recycling, and waste generation.

County summaries. In addition to the 1998 data on SCORE programs, this tenth anniversary edition examines waste generation, recycling and waste reduction trends. The OEA reviewed the efforts of the 87 counties and WLSSD over the last seven to ten years. A county-by-county summary, supported by a series of graphs, details changes in recycling, solid waste generation, funding and population. Each summary comments on both the progress made, barriers faced by each county, and indicates future plans.
