Direct financial assistance is available through RBAC’s Recycling Business Development Grants and the N.C. Recycling Tax Credit program. RBAC also offers information on additional funding sources such as loans and venture capital, through various partner agencies. Facility SitingFinding the right location for a facility is crucial to the business’ success. The N.C. Department of Commerce has an online source of available sites and buildings to help determine an optimum location for any business or facility. Contact Ben Rogers at (919) 707-8135 for building or site location assistance. PermittingSome recycling businesses may require environmental permits in order to protect human health and the environment. The N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has environmental assistance coordinators throughout the state to assist residents, businesses and local governments in identifying environmental permits for any project. Whether you are seeking to start a new business, modifying processes at an exisiting business or expanding, each environmental assistance coordinator aids customers in understanding the regulatory requirements of a project to ensure success on the front-end. DENR also provides an Express Permitting option that offers a more timely review of certain environmental permits than the traditional permit review process. It offers quicker decisions on permits and certifications, as well as direct consultation with DENR division staff to identify necessary requirements.
