Join us in 2005! Stop back here for more information.
Description of Event
The beneficial use of high-volume, low-hazard industrial byproducts is expanding, with a number of applications gaining market and regulator acceptance. However, the question of whether these byproducts can be recycled in an environmentally and economically sound manner is currently an impediment to further development and expansion of the practice.
Come listen and participate with representatives from the private sector, reuse and recycling community, non-profit organizations, trade associations, local, state and federal government agencies.
Purpose of Summit
The 2004 Byproducts Beneficial Use Summit is designed to exchange information about beneficial use and to provide a forum for the exchange of information and ideas between regulators and industry players.
The Summit supports discussions: (a) between industry and regulators to increase the understanding of industrial byproducts and regulatory programs; (b) among state regulators to share information and experiences on beneficial use regulations and determination processes; and (c) among industries to share experiences on navigating the regulator process and to assess the potential to utilize each other's byproducts.
