Solid Waste Cleanup Program Future Challenges • No end in sight for potential projects and sites to meet or exceed available funding. • Demand for projects has broadened and expanded to disaster debris,illegal dumping, and storm water trash. Projects and partnerships are more complex. • Resources strained including demand for disaster debris cleanup and technical assistance based on Angora success. • Program is only backup at this time to address non-water quality corrective actions for the 282 landfills subject to full 27 CCR financial assurances.
