Can we use the HHW 15th Cycle Coordination Grant funding to coordinate a county-wide u-waste collection event?
No. The purpose of the coordination grant is to bring local officials and other stakeholders together to develop information and strategies for improving the u-waste collection system. U-waste collection is not an allowable expense. The separate competitive Infrastructure portion of the HHW 15th Cycle would be the appropriate place to propose funding for a u-waste collection program; however competitive programs should be innovative models, especially those that promote public/private partnerships. Routine collection events would be fundable but would score lower in the competitive scoring process because they would not receive the bonus points for innovation.
