In a recent development, state senator Page Walley revealed that the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation has allocated a substantial sum of $187,920 to Lawrence County. This funding is specifically designated for initiatives related to automotive oil collection and the establishment of solid waste management convenience centers. The grants are designed to empower local communities in their efforts to meet recycling and solid waste management goals.
These grant programs play a crucial role in encouraging and supporting communities as they strive to achieve their recycling and waste management targets. The financial assistance provided can be utilized for various purposes, including the replacement or removal of green boxes and the construction or renovation of convenience centers. It is important to note that recipients must submit applications to qualify for these enhancements and recycling initiatives.
