5 Oregon Revised Statues (ORS) Chapter 459 Oregon DEQ delegates to counties the authority and responsibility to establish a coordinated Solid Waste Management Plan. The regulation also prioritizes methods of manage solid waste as follows: 1. To reduce the amount of solid waste generated. 2. To reuse material for the purpose for which it was originally intended 3. To recycle materials that cannot be reused 4. To compost 4. To recover energy from solid waste that cannot be reused or recycled or composted. 5. To dispose of solid waste that cannot be reused, recycled or from which energy cannot be recovered by landfilling or other method approved by the Department.
6 Opportunity to Recycle Act SB 66 In 1991, Oregon DEQ required cities and counties to implement an opportunity to recycle program and established a state wide goal of 50 % materials recovery by a. At least one durable recycling container to residential customers. b. Weekly on-route collection on the same day that solid waste is collected. c. An education program about the benefits of reducing, reusing, recycling and composting material and to promote use of recycling services. d. Recyclables collection at multi-family complexes. e. Residential yard debris program. f. On-site commercial recycling collection. g. Expanded depot program (1 per 25,000 people). h. Progressive residential rates. i. Commercial organics/compost collection.

30 How Recycling Is Like Flying The greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions resulting from Oregonians recycling in 2010 (3 million MTC2e) is nearly equal to the GHG impact of all air travel by all Oregonians to all destinations in that same year (3.2 million MTC2e). Data compiled by ODEQ using 2010 Material Recovery and Waste Generation Report. and Table 4.1 of Oregon s Greenhouse Gas Emissions Through 2010: In-Boundary, Consumption-Based and Expanded Transportation Sector Inventories, ODEQ, ODOE and ODOT July 18, 2013.
