Abstract/Contents: | Discusses legislation to repeal bans on landfilling yard trimmings in various places in the United States. Highlights the Florida repeal, stating that "'the establishment of yard waste processing facilities in the state was a positive result of the initial ban.'" Explains that millions of dollars of private and public money have already gone into the legislation. Reports that Georgia's ban stayed in place, as Georgia's "'goal is still to keep organics and yard trimmings out of landfills and toward their highest or best use.'" |
