[greenyes] 5th Massachusetts Organics Recycling Summit

["Long, Stephen (DEP)" <Stephen.Long@no.address>]

5th Massachusetts Organics Recycling Summit
"Getting to Yes: Strategies for Organics Recycling Success" will be held
on Wednesday, March 30, 2005, at the Holiday Inn in Boxborough,
Massachusetts. The Summit will focus on the challenges and successes of
growing the capacity of food waste recycling programs. Expanding these
programs will take a combination of operational excellence, savvy
business relationships, and cooperation across the spectrum of
stakeholders. 

*	Find out how organics generators, haulers and commercial
composters have achieved operational excellence and built support with
external stakeholders. 
*	Learn dispute resolution and community and public relation
techniques used by state and local regulators and organics recycling
stakeholders for fostering smooth relationships with customers and
communities. 
*	Hear updates from food and composting trade associations and
Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). 
*	Visit dozens of equipment and product vendors. Terrific
networking opportunity with over 200 participants in the field.
