Local governments and nonprofits may get a little greener thanks to TDEC grants.
Grant funding can be used toward purchasing recycling equipment, recycling rebates, the management of used oil/automotive fluids, convenience centers, education and outreach, and recycling measurement. All grants will support local governments’ efforts toward achieving their waste reduction and recycling goals. The application process is open until Oct. 2, 2017.
Many of the grants are also open to nonprofit organizations.
