Saginaw County Solid Waste Management Planning Committee Reports
Saginaw County last completed an update to the state-required Solid Waste Management Plan that was approved by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) in 2001. The plan presents an integrated strategy for managing Saginaw County’s solid waste, including reducing the amount of waste that we generate, increasing the recovery of valuable materials from the waste stream through recycling and composting, and maintaining adequate landfill space to meet our needs well into the future. Subsequent updates have not been requested by MDEQ.
The County Solid Waste Plan also calls for the continuation of an oversight committee to insure that the goals and objectives of the plan are followed. This is carried out by the Saginaw County Solid Waste Management Planning Committee, of which MMWA is a member. Many of the goals set forth in the plan and update are carried out by the Authority as the developer and administrator of the residential solid waste management system throughout the county and the solid waste public education entity therein.
