A Message from Marc Rogoff, Solid Waste Committee Chair 2007-2008:
Welcome to the APWA web site for the Solid Waste Technical Committee!
On behalf of the Solid Waste Technical Committee, I want to emphasize our commitment to providing you and all
APWA members' access to the knowledge, resources, and skills that reside in the committee membership and evolve
through committee activities.
As Public Works professionals, we are continuously being challenged to successfully manage solid waste infrastructure
and to deliver solid waste services in a safe, cost effective manner. The Solid Waste Technical Committee is a great
conduit to access the expertise of the 27,000 APWA members. In the year ahead, we will strive to meet all challenges, share information,
and support opportunities that allow us to learn from each other.
If you are interested in discussing solid waste issues with other APWA members, please subscribe to the Environment
infoNOW Community. This forum connects you to other solid waste management professionals and provides opportunities
to post and answer questions to your peers. The infoNOW communities can be accessed on the APWA home page.
Topics that the Solid Waste Technical Committee is currently working on include; Contract Management for Solid Waste
Services, Alternative Solid Waste Collection and Processing Programs, and Solid Waste Benchmarking. We hope to
develop these into sessions at Congress. In addition, several members of the Committee and other APWA members are
currently working on writing a book etailing solid waste cost of service studies and ratemaking. We hope to roll
this publication out in time for Congress next Fall.
If you have any interest in working with us on these topics, or have other interest, please contact me or the other
committee members. Our contact information is listed below, just click on Committee Roster. Suggestions are welcomed!
Thank you for visiting our web site!
