This letter provides ECOS feedback on U.S. EPA, USDA, & FDA’s “Draft National Strategy for Reducing Food Loss and Waste and Recycling Organics.”
The ECOS comments emphasize state interest in collaborating with federal agencies, and enthusiasm about U.S. EPA’s Solid Waste Infrastructure for Recycling (SWIFR) and Recycling Education and Outreach (REO) Grant Programs and states’ existing food waste reduction programs. States are concerned about waste stream contamination from PFAS and other persistent chemicals, and look forward to ongoing engagement with U.S. EPA, USDA, DOE, and FDA following the release of the Strategy to help build a more circular economy for all.
