County Government Learn of Positive Outcomes from Recycling Partnerships

The recycling workshop covered the subject of establishing
partnerships between county government and the industry. Steve Levetan, Sr. VP
of Pull-A-Part and the executive director of the GA Association of Counties,
Ross King, presented on the value ‎of working together to achieve lasting
results and solutions for countywide problems. Levetan spoke to the fact that
scrap is not waste and how county government can benefit from making this
distinction in its regulations.  King and Levetan also shared the secret
of their success with winning over the Georgia congressional delegation for
support of enactment of the Superfund Recycling Equity Act. The workshop was
the first of its kind at this NACo event.
