SCOPE OF WORK

Task Title:
Task Cost: $56,729.00
Waste Reduciton and Recycling Education and Outreach
Task Descri t gpr .
Continuing its WR&R program, the RECIPIENT will have six (6) related areas of focus in this grant cycle:
1. promote all recycle services offered in Snohomish County, including proper designation of unwanted household
hazardous wastes (HHW), the local designated collection sites for electronic waste, fluorescent tubes and bulbs, and
sites for unwanted/expired prescriptions and medicines.
2. provide outreach to the multi -family sector of the City and assist in increasing and enhancing collection of 'clean'
recyclables. The Project will refer to guidelines described in the state Multi -family Recycling Study in order to use
best management practices for outreach as well as to investigate the inclusion of promotion of organics collection at
multi -family properties.
3. continue to expand recycling collection at public events, where recycling bins will be made available for loan and
collected materials will be tracked and measured. The WSU Community Sustainable Stewards will be partners on
outreach for at least two of the events - the Waterfront Festival and the Taste of Edmonds - both three (3) day outdoor
events, in which organics will also be collected separately.
4. partner with the local Boy Scouts to promote and facilitate their holiday tree -cycling activity, as well as support the
County's initiatives to work with the certified waste haulers to harmonize services and communication formats, and to
expand their waste prevention and recycling educational efforts, especially as regards school classroom workshops and
presentations.
5. continue acting as part of the City review and planning processes for any proposed commercial and multi -family
development that will require a plan for recycle collection areas, or an update of City policies regarding recycling.
6. maintain and update waste prevention and recycling information at City Hall's new Green Information Room and on
the City website, plus place this information strategically in local newspapers, online news sources and mailed
newsletters as appropriate.
The RECIPIENT will note a return to the requirement for Ecology review before printing promotional or other
materials to be paid for by monies granted under this Agreement. The full text of this requirement can be found in
Proviso #18 under the General Terms and Conditions that follow below.
The RECIPIENT may charge user fees for some items or may drop user fees to increase the volume of materials
collected. The RECIPIENT will credit this grant for any revenue received from the collection of fees or commodity
sales on items the grant is directly supporting. In addition, the Coordinated Prevention Grant Program does not pay for
costs covered by an existing product stewardship program (such as E -cycle Washington, LightRecycle Washington, or
Ca112Recycle). Contact your Ecology grant project manager or consult the following website if you are unsure about a
cost's grant -eligibility: http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/swfa/ProductStewardshipFAQ.html.
The costs of membership in civic, business, and technical/ professional organizations are allowed to the extent they are
covered in the overhead rate. If the RECIPIENT does not charge overhead to this task, it may directly bill for
membership(s) pre -approved by ECOLOGY.

Recipient Name: City of Edmonds
Task Goal Statement:
The Waste Prevention and Recycling Project is an ongoing effort to increase awareness and use of all recycle and
reuse services, options and opportunities, as well as sustaining such awareness and use throughout the Edmonds
community. In that there continues to be an overall concern with the quality of recyclables collected and ongoing
contamination issues at curbside despite a healthy recycle participation rate in the City, this project is aimed at creating
a cleaner recycled product stream. Finally, as the County's 14HW facility continues to need promotion and support,
there will be a focus on informing the community about the need for and the opportunity to return HHW to a facility
equipped to hanle it.
TskF.xPected Outcome:
In projecting a collective diversion of an additional 30 tons of recyclable material that includes five (5) tons of
organics during the 2015-2017 grant cycle, the RECIPIENT will use collection information provided by the City's
certified waste haulers at least quarterly, data that shows separate tracking of garbage/ recycle/ yard waste tons
collected, along with the number of accounts in the residential, multi -family and commercial sectors. Multi -family
outreach is planned for 600 residents and 25 complexes, with 350 residents and 10 new complexes participating;
success will be measured by contacts made, number of participants, number of information pieces distributed and one
or more follow-up surveys to gauge effect.
