SUMMARY OF 1996
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
T,
. he Waste Wi$e program celebrated its third anniversary
in 1996. Looking back, it is easy to see why the program
has been so successful — we have outstanding members that
continue to show the enthusiasm and commitment neces-
sary to effectively reduce waste. Since the program's incep-
tion in 1994, Waste Wi$e partnership has grown to more
than 600 members. Over this same 3 -year period, partners
have reduced nearly 1 1 million tons of waste.

The program originally targeted businesses, but more recently has
encouraged the noncorporate world to partner with us to focus on
internal waste reduction. Increasingly, other organizations, including
state, local, and tribal governments; schools and universities; and hospi-
tals and nonprofits, have decided to take the WasteWi$e challenge. The
program now serves more than 50 sectors, and the number of employees
at reporting facilities range from 2 to 750,000. Just about any organiza-
tion can benefit from WasteWi$e!
This report documents results achieved by our partners in 1996 and
describes how Waste Wi$e participation has grown and how Waste Wi$e
has expanded its services over the past 18 months. The relatively new con-
cept of eco-efficiency — promoting sustainable development in a competi-
tive marketplace — is pushing organizations to seek new ways to reduce
-------
their environmental impact and upgrade organi-
zational operations. Participation in voluntary
EPA programs, such as WasteWi$e, helps busi-
nesses and other institutions define internal
processes, improve their public image, and pre-
vent harmful greenhouse gases from entering
the environment.
WasteWi$e partners implement waste pre-
vention strategies to become eco-efficient
organizations. Waste prevention—eliminating
waste before recycling—is an integral concept
to emerging international environmental stan-
dards. It can help organizations improve effi-
ciency and increase competitiveness, while
allowing them to take an active role in pro-
tecting the environment. In 1996, partners
eliminated more than 453,000 tons of mate-
rials through waste prevention—an increase of
more than 30 percent over the 1995 total.
Reductions were achieved through a com-
bination of tried-and-true methods and newer,
innovative waste reduction strategies. From
reducing transport packaging to transforming
damaged utility poles into artificial reefs,
WasteWi$e partners far exceeded 1994 and
1995 totals and proved that they are environ-
mental leaders in the global marketplace.
WasteWi$e partners have always been one
step ahead of their competitors in using waste
reduction to achieve cost savings and increase
efficiency. Partners have found that it is more
cost-effective to reduce and reuse than to pur-
chase excess supplies and dispose of unneeded
WasteWi$e Plays a Lead Role in Reducing Greenhouse Gas
Emissions
In 1993, President Clinton initiated the Climate Change Action Plan to strengthen our country's
commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The plan outlined more than 50 voluntary
initiatives designed to reduce emissions of these gases to 1990 levels by the year 2000. EPA is
responsible for encouraging attainment of about half the reductions under this plan.
WasteWi$e partners have been playing a leading role in helping the nation to achieve these goals
during the past 3 years. Since 1994, WasteWi$e partners have prevented and recycled almost 11 mil-
lion tons of materials. Just how do WasteWi$e efforts fit into the Climate Change Action Plan?
By reducing waste, WasteWi$e partners also divert millions of tons of material from the waste
stream. They attain higher levels of efficiency by only using materials that they really need. Simply
put, as organizations prevent more waste and recycle more materials, fewer greenhouse gases are
emitted into the atmosphere.
Waste prevention, reducing waste before recycling, greatly reduces the emission of greenhouse
gases by conserving raw materials and the energy expended to retrieve, process, and manufacture
materials into products. In addition, waste prevention keeps materials out of landfills and incinera-
tors. Overall, waste prevention provides more climate change benefits than any other waste man-
agement option.
By boosting their recycling efforts, WasteWi$e partners divert valuable materials from the waste
stream that otherwise would be disposed of in landfills and incinerators, where they would emit
greenhouse gases. In particular, many companies have increased their recycling of office paper
and corrugated containers. Keeping paper out of landfills reduces methane emissions. Trees take
large amounts of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and store it in wood—when used paper is
recycled into new paper products, fewer trees have to be harvested and more carbon dioxide is
absorbed. When WasteWi$e partners use recyclables, rather than raw materials, in manufacturing
processes, they not only divert waste, but also save energy needed to mine raw materials.

materials. In avoided dis-
posal fees alone, the
reported volume of waste
prevented represents a
potential savings of near-
ly $15.4 million1.
Avoided purchasing
costs are often much
higher than avoided
disposal fees.
WasteWi$e estimates
that the avoided paper
purchasing costs for
all reporting partners
in 1996 could be as high as $64.5
million2! This money can be channeled back
into the organizations to improve productivity,
resource efficiency, and competitiveness.
Waste prevention is not the only way to
reduce waste and achieve cost savings. Partners
continued to report impressive recycling num-
bers, nearing 4.8 million tons in 1996.
Avoided disposal costs for these materials could
exceed $162.5 million. The most commonly
recycled materials included metals, wood, and
corrugated cardboard, making up more than 80
percent of the total. Partners didn't stop at
recycling. They continued to close the loop by
buying almost 4.3 million tons of recycled con-
tent products. Many manufactured new prod-
ucts with recycled content or increased the
percentage of recycled content in existing
manufactured products. These activities divert-
ed almost 1.8 million tons from disposal and
promoted the wise use of materials.
Both waste prevention and recycling col-
lection totals have continued to increase dur-
ing the past 3 years. There has been a fourfold
increase in overall waste reduction, although
the number of partners reporting has
decreased. Partners are not only reducing
more, they also are finding better ways to
measure their reductions. Having completed
3 years in the program, many of our partners
have become measurement experts!
While many organizations are still focused
on the important task of achieving compliance
with environmental standards, WasteWi$e
partners have moved beyond compliance to
resource conservation and sustainable develop-
ment. We salute our partners for their dedica-
tion to fostering a sustainable environment. As
for those who have not yet joined the program,
we encourage you to do so today.
This figure is based on an average 1996 U.S. tipping fee of $34 per ton, as compiled by Biocycle in the April 1997 issue, "The
State of Garbage in America."
These figures are based on the 1996 average costs of $876.67 per ton of high-grade office paper and $319.58 per ton of
medium-weight corrugated, as derived from low-end costs reported by Pulp & Paper, 1996.

WASTE REDUCTION
WORKS FOR EVERYONE
>teWi$e partners tell us that the best waste reduc-
tion programs touch on all departments, divisions, and
branches of an organization. Organizations that incorporate
waste reduction strategies into all working relationships
(e.g., with customers, suppliers, and employees) achieve
higher cost savings through efficient use of materials and
reduced disposal fees. Reductions ranged from 5 pounds to
more than 90 million pounds, and partners reported sav-
ings of up to $17 million for individual waste prevention
activities. Regardless of the specific reduction or savings
per activity, WasteWi$e partners are putting forth more
effort than ever and are realizing impressive results. Their
commitment to reducing waste is paying off!

Common Waste Prevention Strategies: "Everyone's Doing It!"
The following waste prevention methods have been the most popular among
WasteWi$e partners during the last 3 years. These methods have been proven
to slash waste and save money. Use them and see for yourself.
• Switching to reusables. Just ask WasteWi$e partner, Johnson & Johnson, how successful this
strategy is. Johnson & Johnson implemented a program to utilize returnable shipping pallets
and components, conserving 45 million pounds of packaging materials. The Maytag Corp.
eliminated almost 4.5 million pounds of wood from the waste stream and saved more than
$27,000 in 1996 by refurbishing damaged pallets and reusing them instead of throwing them
away.
• Going paperless with technology. WasteWi$e partners reduce waste by staying on the cutting
edge of technology. Bell South Telecommunications reduced nearly 30 million pounds of
paper and saved more than $16 million by reducing paper printouts through increased use of
an electronic filing system. They also reduced more than 12,000 pounds of paper and saved
more than $90,000 by billing some customers electronically.
• Duplex copying. Duplex copying (copying on both sides of a page), works for all organizations,
large and small. NYNEX saved 71,000 pounds of copier paper by encouraging users at its 13
copy centers to complete duplication jobs with two-sided printing.
• Donation programs. Donation is a great way to divert waste from the landfill—after all, one per-
son's trash is another person's treasure! The Walt Disney World Company donated more than
1 million pounds of wood, piping, fixtures, and other used construction materials to nonprofit
organizations, lowering disposal costs for themselves and building costs for the nonprofits.
• Employee education. Employee participation is key to the success of a program, and to partici-
pate, employees must be knowledgeable about the waste reduction efforts. Opp and Micolas
Mills educates its employees through a rotating waste minimization team. As new members join
the team, old members train them and leave the team. They then go back to their depart-
ments, where they take what they learned while on the team and apply it to different depart-
ments and areas of the organization.
Working With
Suppliers
WasteWi$e partners strengthened partner-
ships with suppliers in 1996 to reduce waste,
reuse materials, and close the recycling loop.
Most efforts were geared at reducing waste on
the WasteWi$e partners' end, but some part-
ners went a step further to encourage suppliers
to consider their own solid waste issues. In
addition to asking suppliers to use recycled
materials in packaging and products, some
partners promoted the idea of extended prod-
uct responsibility, requiring that suppliers
decrease packaging or implement return pro-
grams. By developing specifications, imple-
menting return programs, and maintaining
open lines of communication with suppliers,
WasteWi$e partners eliminated thousands of
tons of wood, corrugated containers, and other
packaging materials from the waste stream.
Waste reduction came in all shapes and
sizes, from small envelopes to huge cable
spools. Partners, such as OECO Corp.,
worked with suppliers and other mail sources

customers each year are demanding less pack-
aging on products in order to decrease their
own household waste. WasteWi$e partners
have found that waste reduction can help
organizations maintain their competitive edge
through fewer purchases and lower disposal
costs, and increased productivity through con-
tinual process improvements. An indirect ben-
efit of these waste reduction activities is the
enhanced public image associated with envi-
ronmentally conscious organizations.
WasteWi$e partners have shown, for the third
year in a row, that they know how to please
customers and clients, while making signifi-
cant waste reductions. Following are a few
highlights of strategies that partners used
when working with customers in 1996:
• DSC Communications Corp. used elec-
tronic conversions to reduce waste by con-
verting paper manuals to CD-ROMs for
some customers and saved more than
$244,000 and 50,000 pounds of paper.
Converting paper phone books to an online
version saved the company $80,000 and
eliminated an additional 16,000 pounds of
paper waste.
• Eastman Kodak Company recently
processed its 100 millionth "one-time-use"
camera for reuse or recycling. In 1996, the
company achieved a 74 percent recycling
rate with 86 percent of each camera reused
or recycled. In all, Kodak has diverted more
than 10 million pounds of waste from dis-
posal as a result of this program.
Herman Miller, an office furniture manu-
facturer, implemented a return program for
corrugated containers used for packaging
finished goods, resulting in the reuse of
more than 100,000 pounds of corrugated
cardboard and saving $50,000.
Procter & Gamble lightened its customers'
grocery bags by lightweighting hand deter-
gent bottles and fabric softener sheet boxes.
Their overall packaging reductions exceed-
ed 12 million pounds in 1996 alone!
Having successfully reduced packaging in
many of their clothing lines, Target Stores
developed a new centralized reuse program
for hangers. Although the company has
reused their hangers in the past, this pro-
gram has centralized the activity. Target's
stores use more than 200 million hangers
per year and reuse up to 90 percent.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration
requires medical device manufacturing
company Sulzer Intermedics, Inc., to send
a specific amount of literature with each
product they ship. By instituting a program
in which physicians can review and return
any unwanted or duplicative literature, they
were able to restock more than 51,000
pieces of literature. This saved the compa-
ny more than $32,000 in printing and
material costs in 1996.
Xerox takes back used printers and photo-
copiers as part of its "Design for the Environ-
ment" efforts. The company disassembles
and salvages usable parts for remanufacture,
8
-------
diverting more than 75 million pounds
from disposal in 1996. In other efforts to
reuse materials, Xerox launched the Toner
Container Return Program on Earth Day
1995. Through this program, customers
rebox empty toner containers in their origi-
nal packaging and return them with the
shipping costs paid by Xerox. The contain-
ers are then cleaned, inspected, and refilled
or recycled. In 1996, 1 million pounds of
plastic and other materials were reused.
Waste Reduction in
Production
Organizations in the 1990s face a variety
of competing demands—keeping costs low
and quality high, staying competitive in a
global marketplace, and meeting consumer
preferences for more environmentally benign
products. By incorporating environmental
considerations into the design and redesign
of products, processes, and technical and
management systems, organizations are man-
aging these challenging demands. In 1996,
WasteWi$e partners developed a variety of
innovative practices that drastically reduced
the volume of waste generated in the manu-
facturing and production area.
Process improvements were a common
strategy to reduce manufacturing waste during
1996. Some partners made changes in the
amount of raw materials used. McDonald's, for
example, conserved more than 12,000,000
pounds of mixed paper by reducing the size of
its napkins by 1 inch. Other partners installed
new equipment to improve manufacturing
processes. For example, textile manufacturer
Cone Mills installed a system to recover soft
thread waste, thus reducing the waste of
1,200,000 pounds of cotton.
Packaging changes were a popular strategy
to reduce waste in manufacturing facilities:
• Allergan, Inc. focused on improving pack-
aging design for their products, reducing
their packaging discards by almost 300,000
pounds.
• The Dow Chemical Company implement-
ed an 'in-plant labeling' system that elimi-
nated the purchasing of excess labeling
materials, conserving more than 6,000
pounds of coated paper. The company also
reduced primary packaging, diverting
1,162,500 pounds of kraft paper bags and
530,000 pounds of corrugated boxes. The
Dow Chemical Company reduced material
use in steel drums by standardizing specifi-
cations and downgauging steel drum thick-
nesses and weight, saving 1,200,000
pounds of steel. These packaging reduction

Company Size Doesn't
Matter When It Comes to
Waste Reduction
From large, multinational corpora-
tions to small nonprofit organiza-
tions, waste reduction can work for
everyone. Though the following
results may not seem as significant as
some of our larger figures, they repre-
sent the stellar achievements of our
small and midsized organizations.
WasteWi$e congratulates everyone on
a great year—keep up the good work
in keeping the waste down!
• Nauticus (National Maritime Center)
donated used 3D glasses to an artist
who reuses the polarized lenses to cre-
ate works of art.
• OECO Corp. donated almost 300
pounds of manila envelopes to a
nonprofit for reuse, saving $500.
• Preston Gates & Ellis LLP developed a
system to donate unserved food to a
local shelter. The company also
reduced its cafeteria waste by replacing
disposable cups and plates with
reusable ones.
• Sligo Adventist School initiated a com-
posting program and reduced 500
pounds of food wastes.
• Stonyfield Farm Yogurt donated nearly
340,000 pounds of yogurt to local farm-
ers for pig feed. In addition, the compa-
ny achieved an average annual recycling
rate of 66 percent.
• Triplex Direct Marketing eliminated
1,000 pounds of paper from the waste
stream by shredding documents for
packaging material.
efforts saved the company an estimated
$4,000,000 in 1996.
Synthetic Industries switched from dispos-
able paper tubes to reusable aluminum
tubes, conserving 10,000,000 pounds of
corrugated cardboard.
Working With
Employees
Perhaps the most effective way for
WasteWi$e partners to see results is by work-
ing internally, with employees. The possibili-
ties for waste reduction are endless when an
organization has a group of willing participants
to carry out the activities and measure the
results. Waste reduction strategies with
employees run the gamut of function areas in
an organization: from the main office, to the
cafeteria, to groundskeeping and housekeeping.
One of the biggest waste streams that
employees can reduce is paper. BankAmerica
challenged employees to reduce paper in 1996.
The volume of waste paper generated daily by
the company at the start of the waste reduc-
tion program was equivalent in height (if
stacked) to the tallest building in San
Francisco! The bank reported a savings of
more than 4 million pounds of paper through
various office paper reduction efforts.
In 1996, WasteWi$e partners diverted more
than 141,000 tons of office paper from the
waste stream through recycling and by using
the following common methods:
• Duplex copying saved Pennsylvania Power
& Light Corp. more than 41,000 pounds
of high-grade paper.
• Reusing once-used paper saved Merle A.
Nunnemaker, D.D.S., the purchase cost of
post-it notes and message pads when the
office started using the backs of once-used
papers for memos and reminders.
10
-------
Paper wasn't the only material targeted by
employees in 1996. WasteWi$e partners also
reduced waste by hosting internal materials
exchanges and by giving away items to
employees. Materials salvaged included furni-
ture, electronics, and office supplies. The
University of Notre Dame put more than
200,000 pounds of furniture to good use by
reusing it internally or donating the surplus to
charitable organizations. The reuse of furni-
ture on campus resulted in a savings of more
than $250,000 in the avoided purchase cost
of new furniture. Battelle, through its Pacific
Northwest Laboratories, established a lab
equipment pool that redistributes reusable sci-
entific, office, and electronic equipment and
tools. In 1996, the pool facilitated the reuse of
more than 1,000 items, resulting in a
$1,000,000 savings. UTC Carrier Corp.
donated more than 100,000 pounds of pack-
aging to employees for reuse. These organiza-
tions prove that taking a second look at waste
can be profitable to everyone involved.
None of these results could have been
achieved without the participation of the
employees. Many partners conducted exten-
sive education and outreach programs in 1996
to keep their workers interested and aware of
WasteWi$e efforts. Programs ranged from 1-
day workshops to continual training in the
areas of waste management and environmen-
tal consciousness—partners report that educa-
tion and outreach are key components of their
successful waste reduction programs.
Waste Reduction
With the
Community
WasteWi$e partners have always been
active members in their communities, provid-
ing employment, donating excess supplies, and
providing services to others in need. When
Dow Corning Corp. began its formal recy-
cling effort in May 1990, the intent was sim-
ply to recycle their office waste. Now, how-
ever, the firm has established an added benefit
in the community by employing individuals
with disabilities to process recyclables. Besides
diverting more than 49 million pounds from
disposal annually, Dow Coming's recycling
efforts have created employment for individu-
als with physical disabilities and mental chal-
lenges within the Midland, Michigan, commu-
nity. Revenue generated from Dow Coming's
recycling program is reinvested into the pro-
gram to sponsor and promote recycling within
the community.
Other WasteWi$e organizations are closing
the loop in their communities by using local
recyclables in their products. In 1996, Fort
Howard's Green Bay Mill, now part of Fort
James Corp., used more than 1,140,000
pounds of mixed waste paper as the primary
raw material for the manufacture of its fin-
ished products. Of this amount, more than
36,000,000 pounds came from the surround-

Think Twice Before You Throw It Away!
As the concept of waste reduction catches on, people are beginning to
source reduce, reuse, and recycle an increasing assortment of materials.
WasteWi$e partners, who have extensive experience with waste reduction activities,
are now looking for new strategies to reduce waste. Following are some examples
of the different materials partners reduced in 1996. Keep up the creative effort!
• ComEd annually replaces approximately 18,000 to 20,000 of its wood electric utility poles due
to service improvements. In the past, undamaged poles could not be reused, because critical
preservatives were lost upon removal of the pole from the ground. ComEd initiated a simple
but effective "pole bandage" program that restores wood preservatives and prevents the pole
from rotting at the ground line upon reuse. As a result, in 1996 ComEd reused 740 poles to
mount electrical equipment, avoiding 2,500 cubic yards in landfill disposal and saving
$126,000 in pole replacement and disposal costs.
• Dan River, Inc., a textile manufacturer, sold 6,000 pounds of fabric scraps to a company that
transforms them to handmade rugs.
• Johnston Industries, a textile manufacturer, composted 12.5 million pounds of fiber waste in
1996. Another type of fiber waste that was previously designated for landfill disposal is now
incorporated into a useful product, insulator pads, thus preventing more than 375,000 pounds
of textile waste from being disposed each year.
• Louisiana-Pacific Corp. sold more than 12,000 pounds of baled plastic to an archery range for
use as back stops. They currently have 38 bales (approximately 39,500 pounds) in storage for
future donation or sales opportunities. Louisiana-Pacific also donated 350 used tires to a local
shooting range for use in a barricade. Plans are being developed to donate future supplies to
a local race track.
• Schlegel Corp. reduced 2,000 pounds of wax paper and saved $1,800 by switching from wax
paper buckets to reusable plastic containers.
• Virco Manufacturing Corp. took 600,000 pounds of sawdust to a local livestock auction for
animal bedding and other uses, saving $8,640 in disposal fees.
• Walt Disney World Company saved more than 100,000 pounds of deli paper by switching to
reusable clay food baskets that do not require paper liners. They also reused more than 1 mil-
lion pounds of textiles through waste reduction initiatives, such as donating cast costumes,
reusing old towels as rags, and reusing old sheets as pot holders.

By using local feedstock, Fort Howard increased
the potential recycling market value for com-
modities in the surrounding community.
Additionally, Fort Howard avoided any unnec-
essary transport costs to ship waste paper to its
manufacturing plant. Not only is staying local
important, it can also be also cost-effective.
In recent years, donation programs have
emerged as a way for organizations to divert
waste and reduce costs, while helping out in
the community. These donations fill a void for
nonprofit organizations and can make the dif-
ference between the survival and collapse of
services needed in communities across the
country. Additionally, the donations brighten
the lives of others. For the past 5 years, Ford
Motor Company collected its employees'
annual yuletide cards and sent them to the St.
Jude's Ranch for abused, neglected, and trou-
bled children. The children made new holiday
cards from the old ones. In 1996, this activity
eliminated 4,500 pounds of paper (460,000
cards) from the waste stream, and gave the
children a creative outlet.
By donating surplus supplies and equipment
to others, WasteWi$e organizations enjoy
numerous benefits, including significant waste
reductions, a sense of good will, improved com-
munity relations, and avoided disposal costs:
• Through its surplus store, Seattle
University gave away more than 10 tons of
wood products (e.g., chairs and tables)
removed from a residence hall during a ren-
ovation project. The store has been one of
the university's most successful waste diver-
sion programs over the past 2 years because
it has enabled the school to give away or
inexpensively sell many items that were
previously landfilled.
• The Body Shop donated 7,000 pounds of
their products to nonprofit organizations in
1996. Donations included soaps and lotions
to a local AIDS service agency and battered
woman's shelter. In addition, The Body
Shop donated posters, promotional items,
and boxes to the Scrap Exchange for distri-
bution to schools and artists.
• Humboldt State University donated
almost 50 cubic yards of goods from stu-
dents who were moving out of residence
halls. Of this amount, 60 percent was cloth-
ing, 20 percent was household items
(kitchenware, small appliances, etc.), 10
percent was canned or bottled food, and 10
percent was miscellaneous items (note-
books, binders, posters, etc.). The materials
collected were taken to Humboldt Shelter
for Women, a nonprofit organization that
assists victims of domestic violence.
Organizations on the receiving end of
donation benefit from the gift of needed
equipment and supplies. Ultimately, the envi-
ronment also wins. WasteWi$e lauds partners'
donation efforts in 1996!

WasteWi$e welcomes all of our new partners who joined in 1996-
1997. Our targeted direct mailings, personal visits, and regional forums
paid off—approximately 200 new partners joined between January 1996
and June 1997. We targeted universities, food manufacturers, retailers,
and electronics companies, but our new partners are not, however, limited
to businesses. In an effort to expand the WasteWi$e program, EPA also
encouraged state, local, and tribal governments to join. In just 2 months,
35 government bodies joined as charter government partners and we
expect this trend to continue. As partners, these organizations agreed to
consider how their own operations can benefit from internal waste reduc-
tion initiatives and to share their experiences with their peers.

Program Streamlined to Make
Participation Even Easier
EPA has also changed the structure of the
WasteWi$e program, making participation easi-
er than ever before for our partners! On June 1,
1997, WasteWi$e began asking all new partners
to make a 3-year commitment upon joining the
program. This means that partners will submit a
one-time Goals Identification Form identifying
the activities that they will implement during
their 3 years in the program, rather than sub-
mitting a Goals Identification Form each year.
Partners then submit an Annual Reporting Form
describing their progress. We hope that this new
structure will enable partners to report signifi-
cant, measurable results by the end of the third
year. At that point, partners can recommit to 3
more years of participation as senior partners or
take their lessons learned and exit the program
as alumni.

Partners Recognized for Ongoing
Commitment to Waste Reduction
Through national and regional forums across
the country, EPA recognized new and existing
partners for their commitment to waste reduc-
tion. On September 9, 1996, EPA hosted its
second National WasteWi$e Forum in
Washington, DC. The highlight of the day was
a luncheon recognition ceremony, featuring a
congratulatory address by Elliott Laws,
Assistant Administrator of EPA's Office of Solid
Waste and Emergency Response. EPA honored
64 WasteWi$e partners for their outstanding
waste reduction achievements, as evidenced by
their annual reports. The event began with a
WasteWi$e program update, followed by a
keynote address. The day continued with a ple-
nary session on Finding the Biggest Costs Savings
in the realm of waste prevention and breakout
sessions on establishing a waste reduction pro-
gram and purchasing recycled content products.
EPA also recognized four endorsers—American
Textile Manufacturers Institute, Edison
Electric Institute, Grocery Manufacturers of
America, and National Automobile Dealers
Association, and 28
individuals from
many WasteWi$e
companies for pro-
moting the benefits of
solid waste reduction
and the WasteWi$e
program to prospec-
tive members.
In 1996,
WasteWi$e also
introduced a series of
regional forums to
recognize existing partners in their area of the
country and welcome new partners who signed
up through our enhanced recruitment efforts.
EPA held the regional events in five locations
across the country: Chicago; Washington, DC;
New York; San Francisco; and Los Angeles.

Increased
Opportunities for
Partner Information
Exchange
WasteWi$e facilitated even more opportuni-
ties for partners to share information. In con-
junction with the regional forums, WasteWi$e
initiated several partner networks across the
country. The partner network meetings
enabled partners to
interact with col-
leagues, discuss waste
reduction issues, and
share successful strate-
gies with peers in their
geographic area. By
working together, part-
ners found solutions to
common concerns and
problems. WasteWi$e
sponsored the first kick-
off meeting for each of these partners networks,
and many partners have decided to continue
meeting annually or semiannually at a partner's
facility.

New Publications
WasteWi$e developed several new free tech-
nical publications to assist partners in develop-
ing, implementing, and measuring their waste
reduction activities. In the past 18 months,
EPA produced the following new materials:
• Two new WasteWi$e Updates: Qoing
Paperless With Technology and
Remanufactured Products: Qood as New.
• A ToolKit of resources designed to help
partners make their waste reduction pro-
grams successful. The Toolkit focuses on
assisting partners with four key components
of a waste reduction program: identifying
key waste streams, educating employees and
managers, measuring results of waste reduc-
tion activities, and reporting.
• New Tipsheets include negotiating hauler
contracts to increase savings, donating left-
over food to the needy, managing food
scraps as animal feed, reducing transport
packaging, and a buy-recycled fact sheet
and resource guide.
An Industry Sector Study of waste reduc-
tion practices implemented at select
WasteWi$e partners in the electric power
industry.
Brief Case Studies on the following indus-
try sectors: utilities; scientific, photographic
and control equipment; soaps, cosmetics,
and hygiene; retail; motor vehicles and
parts; manufacturing (general); food service
and manufacturing; entertainment; comput-
er and electronics; communications; chemi-
cal and petroleum refining; beverages; and
banking, financial, and insurance.
Industry Sector Fact Sheets describe exam-
ples of WasteWi$e goals and sample partner
achievements for the following industry
sectors: beverages; chemicals and pharma-
ceuticals; electronics; entertainment; food
manufacturing and processing; forest and
paper products; motor vehicles and parts;
scientific, photographic, and control equip-
ment; retail and direct sales; telecommuni-
cations; textile; and utility industries.

Expanded Communications With Our
Partners
To better serve our partners with access to
the program's technical information,
WasteWi$e revamped and expanded electron-
ic and paper communications in 1996. The
new and improved WasteWi$e homepage is
on the Web at www.epa.gov/wastewise.
Through the homepage, you can now down-
load our publications, register online, and see
sample goals and results. Also included is a
special partner network area called The
Partner Network. Password-protected for
WasteWi$e members, The Partner Network
provides special technical assistance informa-
tion and resources. Features include the
WasteWi$e Bulletin, links to helpful waste
reduction sites, and news and upcoming
events. Annual reporting forms can be found
in The Partner Network as well. In addition,
The Partner Network features the most fre-
quently asked questions of WasteWi$e part-
ners and EPA's response.
WasteWi$e recently established an elec-
tronic list server to facilitate communication
between EPA and partners, and among part-
ners. The list server will allow us to post pro-
gram announcements and alert you to new
technical information. We encourage our
partners to use it, too! Use it to submit ques-
tions to EPA, discuss waste reduction issues
with your colleagues, offer suggestions to
other members, and share success stories with
all of us. Partners can subscribe to the list
server by sending an e-mail to ww@cais.net.
EPA also expanded the WasteWi$e Bulletin
in 1996. The new 4-page Bulletin includes a
section on resources, answers frequently asked
questions from the helpline, and features
innovative activities implemented by our
partners in each issue.
-------
A LOOK AHEAD
asteWi$e is planning to offer new and improved ser-
vices to our members in 1997 and beyond. We are plan-
ning improvements in education, program implementation,
and partner recognition. Upcoming activities include:
• Electronic Reporting. WasteWi$e plans to take reporting online for
the March 1998 reporting period. WasteWi$e hopes that this paperless
process will be more convenient for partners, will facilitate the report-
ing process, and will prevent large amounts of paper from entering the
waste or recycling stream. Partners will be able to submit all of the
required annual reporting information via the WasteWi$e homepage.
• Awards Program. WasteWi$e plans to launch an awards program in
January 1998, to recognize outstanding partners in the areas of waste
prevention, recycling, and buying recycled. Watch for mailings that
will describe specific requirements and awards criteria.
• Recognition Ceremonies. We are planning several recognition cere-
monies for 1997-1998. In conjunction with the National Recycling
Coalition's Annual Congress in Orlando, Florida, we are planning a
special ceremony to welcome Charter Government Partners and new
business partners. We also are planning a national ceremony to recog-
nize all award winners in the fall of 1998. Regional recognition
events will be held in Boston and Philadelphia.
• Partner Advisory Council. WasteWi$e anticipates developing a
Partner Advisory Council to help EPA generate ideas for new
partner services.
