Wednesday June 12, 1:00pm-3:30pm

Register now for NC Recycling Day at the Capitol!  We must educate our lawmakers about the positive impact of recycling and waste reduction in North Carolina, and how they can support our industry in new and better ways.  Recyclers will meet at NC DEQ Headquarters briefly before heading over together to the NC General Assembly portico, where we will enjoy a sweet cold treat and meeting our lawmakers as they head into their sessions and offices.  Participants are also encouraged to schedule appointments with their legislators in their offices during the event. Please register for this event ahead of time; there is a cap on the number of participants.
