Recycler of the Year AwardsThe 2015 AOR Conference in Bend is just around the corner and we are seeking nominations for our Recycler of the Year awards. Each year AOR selects individuals and organizations that have made exceptional contributions to recycling and waste prevention efforts in Oregon. The winners will be presented with their awards at the Sustainable Oregon Conference in Bend. The deadline for nominations is May 11 at 5pm.

This is a perfect opportunity to recognize an individual or organization that has been doing great things in Oregon! Nomination forms can be found here.

Recycler of the Year award recipients generally demonstrate the following:

  • Enhancement of environmental welfare through things like waste prevention, recycling, composting, innovation, or market development
  • A long-term commitment to waste prevention, recycling, market development, or community involvement
  • Innovation in proposing or implementing new, modified, or unique technologies, processes, or programs not previously implemented
  • Economic benefits in terms of reduced costs to businesses, organizations, or the public
  • Transferability of recycling or waste prevention programs, processes, or efforts. Can this example be applied to similar situations?
