2010 District Application (fillable Word document)
The Northwest Missouri Regional Solid Waste Management District has received grant funds from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources to disseminate to public, private and not-for-profit sectors throughout Atchison, Gentry, Holt, Nodaway, and Worth counties.
The grant funds are intended to reduce the amount of waste entering the local waste stream and/or to facilitate recycling. Any individual or organization with an idea for a project to recycle, reduce, or reuse such items as: paper, organic waste, resin plastics, or electronics can submit an application and may be awarded funds to support their project.
Previous grants approved have included the purchase of wood chippers, recycling bins and refurbished equipment that assists in recycling or waste reduction activities. District Grant dollars have also helped establish outdoor classrooms for schools.
Preference shall be given to projects that reduce, reuse, recycle or strengthen consumer demand for the following post-consumer wastes, including paper, glass, metal, plastics, demolition waste, organic waste, yard waste, waste oil, lead acid batteries and electronics. Applications will be evaluated according to several criteria. Some of those criteria are:
- How well the project contributes to community-based economic development.
- If the project promotes waste reduction or recycling.
- Project feasibility.
- If the project has an effective marketing strategy.
- If the project can be implemented in a timely manner.
- How well the project complies with federal, state and local requirements.
Individuals or entities interested in applying for funds for a waste reduction or recycling project should review the following. If there are any questions please contact Denise Workman, Solid Waste Planner (660) 582-5121 or e-mail denise@nwmorcog.org. Applications are due in the district's office, 114 West Third Street; Maryville, Missouri, by 3:00 p.m. on Monday, April 5, 2010.
