The awarded activities focus on six main areas: analyzing current material flows and waste processing infrastructure challenges, existing public resources and programs, needs of rural residents, local economies and waste generation, feasibility of implementing zero waste strategies in rural counties, and methodologies for measuring progress. The expected outcomes include a publicly available report, community engagement, and tailored zero waste resources to address the unique needs and challenges of rural communities in California. This is intended to stimulate job creation in the circular economy sector for these areas.
