Jeff Clarin, Regional Engineer for Waste Connections, will provide a tour of the MRF then will join us at COE to speak on the operator perspective of SB-1383 programs, after which Peter Cron, Executive Director at the SLO County Integrated Waste Management Authority (IWMA), will speak on the IWMA perspective of SB-1383 programs on the Central Coast. (The IWMA was formed under Joint Powers Authority for all SLO County jurisdictions to implement solid waste and recycling mandates through programs, education, and other technical support). Mr. Clarin will also present Waste Connections’ experience with electric vehicles used in solid waste collection. After the educational presentations and meeting, stay and enjoy additional networking while tasting some fabulous wine at the beautiful COE venue overlooking the Edna Valley just south of San Luis Obispo!
