EGLE's new recycling circular economy initiative aims to strengthen communities, protect environment
The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) welcomed 17 early-adopter inaugural partners today for its new NextCycle Michigan initiative, which offers a pathway to develop waste and recycling recovery projects that will grow Michigan’s recycled materials supply chain and end markets.
“Partners are critical to the success and sustainability of NextCycle Michigan,” said Matt Flechter, recycling market development specialist at EGLE. “Recycling and recovery projects right here in the state will drive job creation and industry growth by recovering materials destined for the landfill.”
