PROGRAM EVALUATION: <br /> 1. Effectiveness in Reducing Solid Wastes: <br /> The effectiveness of the above policies would be <br /> minimal on the entire solid waste stream. <br /> Nevertheless, County government is a large user of <br /> labor and materials, and thus a large generator of <br /> waste. Thus, any effort to reduce the amount of waste <br /> generated through source reduction efforts will reduce <br /> the waste stream. Since the County generates its <br /> waste, it can be effective in controlling its waste <br /> generation. <br /> Experience gained by the County in reducing its <br /> own office waste and through procurement procedures <br /> could then be shared with other businesses and <br /> industries to help reduce waste from these sources as <br /> well. <br /> 2. Hazards Created: <br /> It is anticipated that no hazards would be <br /> created through implementation of the above policies. <br /> 3. Ability to Accommodate Changing Political, Social and <br /> Economic Conditions: <br /> Since the policies are controlled by the County, <br /> the policies could be changed to accommodate local <br /> change. <br /> 4. Consequences of the Program on Waste Types: <br /> The program would result in reduction of paper <br /> wastes and less frequent disposal of durable goods. <br /> Chapter 3 - Source Reduction 20 <br />
