Proposals will be accepted through June 13, 2024. Eligible proposals must show economic impact, increased public awareness through tangible outreach and education efforts, and result in at least one of the following:
an increase in the amount of recyclable material collected or used; a reduction in municipal solid waste shipped for final disposal; improved partnerships with communities.RMDP grants are administered through the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM). Final funding determinations will be made this fall.
