Points for discussion and consensus building

Background: Overview/current status of waste management in North Carolina

Discussion points:

1. Why was our state successful in reaching the goal of having municipal solid waste managed in more protective landfills (liners/leacheate collection systems)?

2. Why has our state been unsuccessful in reaching the goal of reducing waste on a per capita basis?

3. What should solid waste management in North Carolina in the year 2009 look like? (i.e. what is the desired outcome?)

4. What needs to be done by whom in order to have the desired outcome regarding waste management in the year 2009?

5. Are there other steps/issues/questions that need to be developed or addressed?
