SUMMARY:Managing Unused Latex Paint Workshop: Focusing on Options for Rural Communities in Maine
DESCRIPTION:Proposed Workshop Agenda \nPlease note: These meetings were designed to be as interactive as possible and we encouraged audience feedback and participation throughout the events. \nWelcome & Introductions\nRachel Smith & Jennifer Griffith\, NEWMOA \nThe Problem with Managing Latex Paint in Maine\nFerg Lea\, AVCOG \n\nThis introduction “set the stage” for why managing leftover “waste” paint is an issue in Maine – especially for rural communities. The remainder of the workshop focused on possible actions for communities\, including: prevention through consumer education\, facilitating local reuse through latex paint exchanges\, and participating in a paint recycling program.\n\nPreventing Waste Paint\nRachel Smith\, NEWMOA \n\nThis session focused on preventing the generation of waste paint and discussed educational messages that local retailers\, solid waste programs\, and others can use to encourage customers and residents to purchase the correct amount of paint.\n\nCase Studies of Paint Drop & Swaps\nJennifer Griffith\, NEWMOA \n\nThis session provided some examples of communities that have successfully implemented latex paint exchanges (aka drop and swaps) to facilitate the reuse of usable latex paint among residents.\n\nRecycling Paint\nIda Arabshahi\, PaintCare \n\nThe law that provides for the paint manufacturing industry to pay for paint recycling became effective July 2 of this year. This session will be a preliminary discussion of how the paint manufacturers’ association\, PaintCare\, will help fund town and retailer collection and recycling programs – anticipated to begin in July 2015.\n\nQuestions\, Feedback\, and Discussion \nMeeting Adjourned

SUMMARY:Chemical Use Disclosure
DESCRIPTION:For a number of years\, companies\, and advocates have been calling for greater transparency in the information available on the use of chemicals in products. In response\, some state environmental agencies have begun to require reporting on chemical use in certain products and to publish the available data. The Interstate Chemicals Clearinghouse (IC2) held a “Chemical Use Disclosure” webinar to kick-off a series of discussions designed to help shape the future of these information resources. It featured presentations on: \n\nThe newly released Washington Department of Ecology online system for searching for information collected from manufacturers on the use of about 60 chemicals of high concern in children’s products; and\nThe Interstate Mercury Education and Reduction Clearinghouse (IMERC) online database covering the intentional use of mercury in products.\n\nThe IC2 has posted a PDF version of the presentation and made a video of the webinar and follow-up discussion available on NEWMOA’s YouTube channel here . \nThis initiative is made possible with funding support from the John Merck Fund and participation from the BizNGO Network and the GC3.

SUMMARY:Documenting P2 Program Activities & Getting Outcomes: Updates to the P2 & Compliance Assistance Metrics Database Software
DESCRIPTION:Andy Bray provided an overview of recent upgrades to the “Pollution Prevention and Compliance Assistance Metrics Database Software.” \nThis Microsoft Access-based database software application contains features for tracking program activities including: \n\nWorking one-on-one with clients (such as on-site visits and research)\nProducing educational and outreach materials\nSponsoring workshops and training events\nResponding to information requests\n\nThe database application also tracks the outcomes associated with many of these program activities\, including environmental\, behavioral\, and economic outcomes. Because each state’s pollution prevention and compliance assistance program is somewhat different in the scope of its activities and its structure\, the software can be customized so that programs can use only those components and the level of detail that suit their needs. \nFor more information\, visit: Pollution Prevention & Assistance Tracker (P2@) Software

SUMMARY:Recovering Food Waste Through Donation & Recycling: Ideas for the Hospitality Sector
DESCRIPTION:The amount of food wasted in the United States is staggering. In the U.S. more food ends up in landfills and incinerators than any other material – even more than paper and plastic. This is especially true for the hospitality sector\, where a considerable portion of the budget goes towards buying food – and then disposing of the unused food as waste. In this webinar\, participants will learn how food waste has significant economic\, as well as environmental consequences\, and ways that it can be diverted from the traditional disposal methods and recovered for donation\, recycling\, and composting. See the webinar agenda and links to presentations below. \nIntroduction – 10 min \nFood Waste 101 & the EPA Food Recovery Challenge – 25 min\nSpeaker: Jean Schwab\, EPA National Food Recovery Initiative\nJean Schwab is leading the EPA’s new National Food Recovery Initiative as well as the EPA’s GreenScapes Program for sustainable landscapes in the Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery at EPA Headquarters. She has worked in the resource conservation and recycling field for 21 years – including over 18 years at EPA. Jean is the EPA lead and subject matter expert for organic materials management issues and serves on a number of national initiatives as a technical expert on materials and environmental management. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Business and a Master’s degree in Urban & Environmental Planning. \nPrepared Food Donation: A Socially Responsible & Simple Alternative to Throwing Away Surplus Food – 20 min\nSpeaker: Jim Larson\, Food Donation Connection\nJim Larson directs program development for Food Donation Connection (FDC)\, LLC. Since joining FDC in 1998\, Jim has been instrumental in the growth of FDC’s Harvest Program\, which coordinates donations of prepared perishable food to local non-profit organizations nationwide. He implemented Harvest programs for YUM! Brands\, Darden Restaurants\, Cheesecake Factory\, and Chipotle Mexican Grill\, and is working with donors to establish programs in Australia and the United Kingdom. Jim works with Feeding America and advocates in the US Congress to encourage the donation of surplus prepared food by improving current food donation tax laws\, explaining the issues involved and providing statements for House and Senate committees. \nViva Recycling! – Food Scrap Recycling in Las Vegas – 20 min\nSpeaker: Brad Tomm\, MGM Resorts International\nBrad Tomm is the Director of Sustainability for MGM Resorts International’s Energy and Environmental Services Division. In this capacity\, Brad is responsible for the implementation of the company’s strategic environmental projects and initiatives in the areas of energy management\, green building\, sustainable supply chain\, and outreach and education. Brad also specializes in statistical and financial modeling of the company’s energy\, water\, and waste footprint. Brad is a member of the US Green Building Council and is a LEED AP. He holds a MBA from Thunderbird Global Business School and Bachelor degrees in Economics and Geology from Vanderbilt University. \nQuestions & Discussion – 15 min
