Over $150K awarded to local counties for Recycling, HHW Division of Waste Management awards to Kentucky counties will fund programs for recycling, household hazardous waste, and composting. By John Mura/Robin Hartman Frankfort, KY - The Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet's Division of Waste Management today announced 49 recycling, 6 composting, and 29 household hazardous waste grants to expand recycling and composting infrastructure, reduce the amount of solid waste going into landfills, and improve the environmental management of household hazardous waste. Local recycling grant recipients include Metcalfe County Fiscal Court ($39,700.00), Russell County Fiscal Court ($57,950.00) and Taylor County Fiscal Court ($61,856.20). Metcalfe County Fiscal Court was also awarded a grant for household hazardous waste ($10,500.00). A complete list of grant recipients can be viewed here: 2019-20 Grant Recipients List (PDF). The Kentucky Pride Fund, which is generated by a $1.75 fee for each ton of municipal solid waste disposed of in Kentucky landfills, is financing the 84 grants totaling just over $4.6 million. The grants require a 25-percent local match in the form of cash or "in kind" personnel, educational activities or advertising to promote the program from the cities or counties receiving the awards.
