Hopkinton Waste Reduction Committee

(Formerly Hopkinton Recycling Committee)

The purpose of the Hopkinton Waste Reduction Committee is to work on a municipal level to protect human health, to preserve the natural environment, and to conserve natural resources through the proper and integrated management of solid waste.  The HWRC will work with the Hopkinton-Webster Refuse Disposal Committee and the Select Boards of both towns to:

      a. promote action to divert waste from landfills and incineration; and

      b. implement the top three priorities of the State of NH waste management hierarchy: source reduction, recycling and reuse, and composting by:

            • educating our community about minimizing waste sources

            • engaging in research about waste management issues and solutions

            • supporting programs to achieve the hierarchy goals
