With the challenges of COVID this year, the decision has been made to combine the EBC Talking Trash North and Talking Trash South Conferences into this one conference that will focus and reflect on the changing landscape of solid waste industry operations in New England.
Following a presentation on the US Environmental Protection Agency’s perspective on the direction of managing solid waste in the United States, the Talking Trash conference will provide an opportunity for participants to learn firsthand from the leadership of the major solid waste companies serving the New England marketplace. Given their understanding of how the shifting of tons will cause major changes in New England’s solid waste industry, the discussion will focus on each company’s perspective of what the future holds for the industry. Next, the leadership of the participating solid waste companies will participate in the first interactive, moderated panel discussion.
A second moderated panel will consist primarily of the leadership of those state, regional, and national solid waste associations active in New England, including SWANA, NRRA, MassRecycle and NWRA. Speakers will emphasize their organization’s programs and strategies to address the larger pending solid waste management dilemma in New England.
The two moderated panel discussions will engage the audience and provide a deeper dive into the critical regional solid waste management issues.
