Oh. So the requesting party meant these broad state diversion/recycling goals, not product- or material-specific mandates? Oops. I misunderstood the question. Most of these goals are not mandatory, and among the few that are, very few are actually enforced. I noticed the AF&PA list does not include Puerto Rico, I guess because it is not a state. PR has a law that required all business entities to practice recycling and to submit to the Solid Waste Authority (ADS) a Recycling Plan of how each it intended to meet the 35% territory-wide recycling goal by 2006.

I just noticed that AF&PA (American Forest and Paper Association) has a list indicating states that mandate recycling. The link is: http://www.afandpa.org/Content/NavigationMenu/Environment_and_Recycling/Recy cling/State_Recycling_Goals/State_Recycling_Goals.htm Of course, some states enforce better than/more than others.... -----Original Message----- From: GreenYes@no.address [mailto:GreenYes@no.address] On Behalf Of RecycleBizCzar Sent: Wednesday, February 28, 2007 9:50 AM To: GreenYes Subject: [GreenYes] Re: where is this data?
