Friends,
Thank you for joining us in celebration of the 25th Anniversary of
EPA's WasteWise program. WasteWise is one of EPA's longest-standing
partnership programs and has involved thousands of organizations,
ranging from corporations and businesses to educational institutions and
governments. Partnerships drive successes and are the cornerstone of
EPA's work in sustainable materials management
For twenty-five years, EPA's WasteWise has helped participants apply
sustainable materials management practices to reduce municipal and
select industrial wastes, saving resources and money.The most recent
group ofWasteWise national award winners reported preventing and
diverting more than 365,500 tons of waste in 2017 that would otherwise
have been disposed of in landfills or incinerated. During the 25 years of
the WasteWise program, participants have kept a staggering 247 million
tons that's 494,000,000,000 pounds of materials from going to
landfills or incineration.
This document highlights some of the accomplishments from the 25 years
ofWasteWise. I want to personally congratulate all our WasteWise partners
over the years on their accomplishments and invite everyone to join us in
celebrating EPA's WasteWise. Together, we are conserving resources for a
better tomorrow!

Celebrating 25 Years of WasteWise
This year marks the 25th Anniversary of EPA's WasteWise program.
WasteWise encourages organizations and businesses to achieve
sustainability in their practices and reduce municipal solid waste and
select industrial materials.
WasteWise was created as an innovative approach to environmental
protection, in late 1987, an infamous Long Island trash barge found itself
in an unenviable situation when five states and three foreign countries
refused to accept the garbage it hauled. This well-publicized event
helped catalyze a national commitment to waste management, with a
renewed emphasis on reducing, reusing, and recycling. EPA launched
WasteWise in 1994, a voluntary partnership program designed to assist
businesses in developing practical solid waste reduction techniques.
Initially consisting of 281 Charter Partners, the program represented a
cross-section of American companies. From its inception, the program
emphasized waste prevention using less materia! to do the same
job because this provides the most significant benefits to the
environment and the bottom line.
Fast-forwarding to 2019, the WasteWise program's fundamental objective
is still to promote waste reduction strategies both innovative and
tried-and-true among diverse organizations and in varying contexts
across the country. Today, the program is part of EPA's Sustainable
Materials Management (SMM) efforts that pursue approaches to using
and reusing materials more productively over their entire life cycles.
A cornerstone of EPA's work in SMM is partnerships, where working in
tandem results in innovative solutions to environmental and economic
challenges facing America.
WasteWise is one of EPA's longest-standing partnership programs, which
is a tribute to the program's membership and its success.To encourage
waste reduction, the WasteWise program activities include various
forms of technical assistance, public recognition and awards. Partners
demonstrate how they prevent and divert wastes, report results, and
receive recognition for significant results. By incorporating SMM into
Waste management processes and reducing amounts of municipal solid
waste, each participant helps grow the national-level economic and
environmental benefits of reducing waste. We are thrilled to showcase
several combined achievements of WasteWise program participants.
For twenty-
five years; EPA's
WasteWise has
helped participants
apply sustainable

practices to reduce
municipal and
select industrial
wastes, saving

WasteWise Now
WasteWise currently has more than 500 partners representing more than 50
sectors, who commit to reduce and recycle municipal solid waste and select
industrial and commercial wastes. Partners include large corporations, small
and medium-sized businesses, schools, colleges, universities, hospitals, state
and local governments, tribes, and other institutions.
In 2017, WasteWise partners reported preventing and diverting 5.4 million
tons of waste that would otherwise have been landfilled. These recovery
activities (recycling, composting, and donation) saved more than $268 million
in landfill tipping fees during the reporting period.
Since 1994, WasteWise participants have prevented more than 247 million
tons of waste from going to the landfill.

Verizon joined the WasteWise program in 1994 as a natural next step in
the evolution of the company's end of life management policies and
practices, Over the years with WasteWise, the company's waste reduction
efforts developed to include a set of diverse source reduction, reuse,
recycling and green purchasing initiatives.
Materials Verizon prioritizes either for refurbishment and reuse or for
responsible recycling include cell phones, Fios set-top boxes, other
electronics, batteries and other supplies. Verizon targets company-
owned electronics as well as conducts public recycling events to
collect and recycle e-waste. Verizon audits recycling facilities against
international standards for health and safety and requires company's
suppliers to send their used batteries to approved recycling facilities in
the U.S. and Canada.
Paper is also a priority material for company's initiatives. Verizon has
adopted a policy for the sustainable sourcing and use of paper, which
includes a goal to buy paper with recycled content. Rounding off the
range of waste reduction initiatives, are the company's source reduction
efforts focused on reducing the use of plastic model phones for
marketing purposes.
Participating iri the WasteWise program helped raise Verizon's
internal awareness, increase the public's awareness of company's
sustainability initiatives and build Verizon's positive public image.
Verizon suggests that the new WasteWise participants apply
creativity when studying their possibilities to reduce,
reuse and recycle.

Virco Manufacturing Corporation
Torrance, California
Virco Manufacturing Corporation started implementing recycling and
waste prevention efforts in 1991 .These efforts grew rapidly, and by 1994,
Virco received the National Recycling Coalition's Fred Schmitt Award for
National Corporate Recycler ofthe Year. Virco joined WasteWise in 1994 for
an opportunity to track and monitor its waste reduction efforts. Waste-Wise's
yearly summaries and GHG reduction charts have assisted Virco in defining
efforts, achieving goals, and demonstrating commitment to the environment.
To reduce waste, Virco examined its waste stream, purchased new higher
efficiency equipment that improved its production processes and reduced
the amount of corrugated cardboard used in their packaging. Virco's waste
reduction efforts reduced trips to the landfill and the associated disposal
costs. The corporation's Take Back and Cash for Cardboard programs
expanded outreach to the community and created end markets for both
furniture manufactured over the life ofthe company and for cardboard
collected at schools. Membership in WasteWise assisted Virco's Arkansas
facility manager in being appointed by the Governor ofthe State of
Arkansas to assist agencies and businesses in locating markets for
recyclables, furthering Virco's leadership role.
In Virco's opinion, WasteWise's tools and resources help new
and existing programs set and achieve goals, identify priorities,
refine processes, track accomplishments, and increase revenues.
WasteWise provides information needed to create a valuable
network of connections. After twenty-five years of membership,
Virco continues to use the tools and resources that the WasteWise
program offers.
Virco has made great strides during its
tenure in the WasteWise program.
Virco's efforts include:
Reducing ferrous metal scrap from
seven million to two million pounds
per year
Reducing corrugated waste
from two million to 700,000
pounds per year
Expanding its recycling impact by
increasing the items recycled from 7
items in 1991 to over 47 items today
Purchasing ferrous steel with
20 percent to 70 percent post-
consumer content
Completing over 100 take back

The Walt Disney Company
Anaheim, California and Orlando, Florida
Disney Parks has made significant strides
in waste reduction and landfill diversion.
The successes of Disney Parks
include:
In 2018, diverting more than 200,000
tons of materials domestically
Sending less waste to landfill in
2018 than in 2008, despite growing
operations, due to the recycling
efforts of many dedicated Cast
Members and Guests
Since 2014, decreasing food waste
to landfill by more than 50 percent
across the domestic Disney Parks
The Walt Disney Company joined the WasteWise program in 1994 to
demonstrate its leadership and commitment to waste reduction. Since
1998, Disney has been recognized multiple times by WasteWise, and it was
inducted into the EPA WasteWise Hall of Fame in 2010.
In 2008, the company set an aspirational goal of zero waste to landfill.
Reducing, reusing and recycling are a big part of materials management
within the Disney Parks, and reducing food waste is a priority. Surplus food
is donated to local food banks that serve the food insecure populations.
Non-edible food is diverted by processing into an animal feed amendment
at Disneyland Resort. At Walt Disney World it is converted into renewable
energy and fertilizer at the Harvest Power on-site facility. Disneyland Resort
received an EPA Food Recovery Challenge Award in 2014, and Walt Disney
World joined EPA's Food Recovery Challenge in 2018.
Waste reduction programs implemented throughout Disney Parks are smart
for the business and improve the guest experience. The reduction of paper
and plastic throughout the hotels and resorts enhances the guest check-in
process and in-room experience.
The WasteWise program supported Disney in developing early
waste reduction strategies and provided the means for members
to share their experiences. Disney advises new participants to
leverage the program's resources. A suggested first step is to
conduct audits to better understand material streams and identify
impact areas. Setting goals, and tracking and measuring progress
along the way, will help drive progress, expand areas of focus and
demonstrate a successful program.

Pitney Bowes successes
include:
Pitney Bowes joined the EPA WasteWise program in 1996 and has been
recognized for excellence in recycling. In 2007, Pitney Bowes was inducted
into the WasteWise Hall of Fame, and has since successfully maintained
its status by showing results in various recycling initiatives. Pitney Bowes
joined the WasteWise program to reduce solid waste along with solid waste
disposal costs, limiting impacts on the environment and bottom line.
The WasteWise Program helped Pitney Bowes to reuse materials and to
reduce the amount of materials it purchases. Pitney Bowes'recycling
process includes the separation of many different types of materials that
are no longer in use for transportation to recycling vendors and reprocessing
into same or other types of products. For example, wooden pallets are
repaired or remanufactured into new pallets and are used by Pitney Bowes
or other companies.
In support of source reduction, Presort Services'Mail Exchange continues
to expand the Pallet Wrapz reusable shipping solution to sites across the
US. These sites ship large numbers of freight pallets of client mail between
cooperating facilities every day. Used in place of traditional, disposable
plastic stretch film, long-lasting Pallet Wrapz eliminate plastic waste while
providing a stronger, safer and more protective wrap. Pitney Bowes expects
to save more than $819,000 in labor and materials, as well as eliminate more
than 573,000 pounds per year of shrink-wrap waste, over the last three years.
Employee participation has been pivotal to Pitney Bowes'success! Pitney
Bowes has been able to report saving many millions of pounds of material
from the landfill and redirecting them into other useful products. With
increased awareness and sustained employee participation, Pitney Bowes
continues to reduce solid waste disposal and improve the environment as
well as the company's bottom line.
Since 2004, avoiding 267,480 metric
tons of carbon dioxide equivalent
(MTC02E), which has the same
effect as removing more than
49,354 cars from the road
In 2018, increasing single-stream
recycling in its Presort business and
avoiding more than 11,690 MTC02E
Pitney Bowes' advice for new participants in the WasteWise
program is to engage employees through communications
and strive to implement clear labeling on bins. Pitney Bowes
encourages employees to reach recycling objectives by placing
recycling bins in strategic areas of their facilities for daily use.
The fields of sustainability and waste management are always
evolving, and Pitney Bowes continues to evolve its sustainability
efforts and waste reduction processes, as well.

Department of Health and Environmental Control
South Carolina
The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control
(DHEC) joined WasteWise in 2000 as a partner and endorser. DHEC's
priorities included improving its internal recycling program and developing
the agency's first buy-recycled policy, as well as promoting waste reduction
and recycling to businesses. WasteWise, with its resources and recognition
program, provided the foundation for creating the agency's waste
reduction, recycling and buying recycled programs and policies.
DHEC promotes its waste reduction policy to all staff through
presentations, signage and email reminders. In addition, DHEC presents
information about its buy recycled policy at workshops for procurement
staff several times a year. In the past five years alone, DHEC has recycled
more than 1,083 tons of material, resulting in reduced disposal and
disposal costs. South Carolina's state agencies, using DHEC's 7.5 percent
price preference, have focused on purchasing recycled-content copier
paper, cleaning supplies and toner cartridges.
DHEC believes WasteWise offers all the resources new participants
need to get started for a successful program. WasteWise is a one-
stop shop that is simple to use and provides in-depth information,
examples to follow and the necessary tools for organizations
to begin or improve waste minimization programs. In DHEC's
experience, it helps to have backup, and WasteWise provides it.
DHEC's programs and
accomplishments include:

Presidio Trust
San Francisco, California
Presidio Trust park managers and
the community envisioned an urban
national park that would become a
model of sustainability for the nation. A
closed-loop waste system that includes
an on-site compost program, was a
major component of the vision.
Presidio's waste reduction
programs result in:
An annual diversion rate that often
surpasses 65 percent
$30,000 in annual profits from
salvaging and selling items at
auctions
$75,000 in annual savings from
diverting organics from landfills and
avoiding disposal costs
300 tons of food waste per year
collected from Presidio's residents
and businesses, a 15-fold increase
over the last 10 years
A diversion rate topping 85 percent
at Presidio Picnic hallmark events
Presidio advises new Waste Wise participants to embrace waste
reduction and focus on learning and improving their programs.
Start with a problem, solve it and build on the success. Don't be
discouraged by a lack of data; start with what you have and make
improvements over time.
The Army closed its military installation at the Presidio of San Francisco in 1994,
and the Presidio became part of the national parksystem. An on-site recycling
center, along with the Presidio's Salvage and Reuse Program were established
in 1999, to manage leftover Army property and waste from new park
operations. Presidio joined WasteWise in 2000 to celebrate its achievements in
waste reduction, and to share information with other federal agencies.
Various items are salvaged at Presidio, sold for profit at auctions, or re-
purposed, avoiding the cost of buying new. Repurposing efforts include
using cabinetry and shelving from military buildings in Presidio restaurants,
and refurbishment extends to countless historic fixtures and furnishings.
Wood waste may be milled to make outdoor furnishings. Composting results
in high-quality soil amendments for Presidio's landscape and nursery soils,
avoiding landfilling costs, saving water and reducing the need for chemical
fertilizers. Presidio educates attendees at its large public events about proper
sorting as well as requires compostable service ware and bans the use of
plastic water bottles.
Presidio's long-term goal is to become a Zero Waste facility. By 2023 the
Presidio aims to reduce waste going to landfill by 50 percent, by streamlining
internal infrastructure and by working with its waste hauler to reduce refuse
container sizes and improve recycling education.

Kohl's Department Stores
Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin
With such a large retail footprint, Kohl's
is in a unique position to make a positive
impact in sustainability areas, including
waste management.
Efforts to reduce waste and
conserve resources include:
Developing partnerships to recycle
plastic film, bags and wrap
Procuring its signature gray bags
with 30-50 percent recycled,
unbleached plastic
Providing in-store recycling bins for
customers to drop plastic bags
Reminding Kohl's cardholders they
can opt for paperless billing
Partnering with the How2Recycle
label program to help customers
more easily determine how to
recycle select materials
Kohl's recycles more than 130,000
tons of material each year,
including more than 7 million
pounds of plastic and 230 million
pounds of cardboard.
Kohl's has been a voluntary partner and active participant of the
EPA's WasteWise program since 2006. Through its initiatives, such as
plastic and cardboard recycling, paperless billing, and beauty product
and fabric scrap repurposing, the company achieved an 83 percent
diversion rate in 2018.
Kohl's recently-announced sustainability goals include a goal to divert
85 percent of the company's U.S. operational waste from landfills by
2025. The company has a solid waste management policy, which
governs recycling practices at stores and corporate facilities.The
separation of cardboard, paper and plastic is a key company-wide
practice, and the company's goal is to maximize the recycling of
consumables and durable goods. Recycling saves the company money,
which helps its stores offset operational costs, making waste reduction
good for business as well as the planet.
Kohl's advice for new WasteWise participants is to utilize the
knowledge of peers and recycling partners when building a
new program. In Kohl's experience, making associates aware
of the environmental and financial impacts of the company's
sustainability efforts can help raise interest and increase
compliance with the company's sustainability policies.

CenturyLink Field
Seattle, Washington
CenturyLink Field's business model and
sustainability efforts support the local
economy and reduce waste.
In 2018, CenturyLink Field:
Retained its 97 percent landfill
diversion rate
Recycled 7,035 gallons of cooking
oil to biodiesel fuel, a 55 percent
increase over 2016
Donated 3.2 tons of servable food
to local food banks, a 27 percent

CenturyLink Field, home to the NFL's Seattle Seahawks and the MLS'Seattle
Sounders, as well as hundreds of other events and concerts each year, is
dedicated to improving its local Pacific Northwest community. The facility
started its waste reduction programs in 2006 and joined WasteWise in 2007
for an opportunity to better track and assess its waste reduction efforts. The
facility built a robust sustainability program and increased the stadium's waste
diversion rate from three percent in 2006 to 97 percent in 2016.
The stadium's food and beverage company, First & Goal Hospitality, partners
with Cedar Grove Compost, a local composting facility, to divert about 16.4
tons of food waste at each Seahawks home game. The compost is sent from
the composting facility to Sound Sustainable Farms to help grow food and
produce organic vegetables, which the stadium purchases to prepare and
serve on gamedays. The stadium's food is sourced from and made in the local
community, using local culinary businesses, as weil as local farms and ranches
that implement sustainable farming practices.
Since 2017, the stadium's food and beverage operation has been offering only
paper-based, marine-degradable straws, and the stadium's WasteWise liaison
highlights that the stadium was the first to be certified through the Smart Catch
program for sustainable sourcing offish and seafood. Today, 95 percent of the
