Michigan Recycling Coalition
The Michigan Recycling Coalition (MRC) represents recycling and composting interests statewide. The Coalition is a recognized authority on waste reduction, beneficial utilization, recycling, and composting through the experience of its staff and committees. The MRC provides trainings, workshops, and an annual conference for professionals at all levels to meet, share, and learn from colleagues and experts in the field.
In addition to these resources, the Coalition has advocated for greater State oversight and investment in sustainable materials management in Michigan. This advocacy was solidified through the MRC’s report entitled 2011 State of Recycling in Michigan: A Way Forward. The Coalition continues to lead the state towards productive recycling and composting of waste materials as a committed stakeholder appointed to the Governor’s Recycling Council and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality’s Solid Waste and Sustainability Advisory Pane. The combined recommendations of these groups informed the development of the proposed changes to Part 115, Michigan solid waste laws.
