Environmental Assistance and Outreach
State Agency GuidanceState agencies are required by the N.C. General Statutes to recycle newspaper, office paper, aluminum cans, and glass and plastic bottles. They also must comply with statewide landfill bans, including fluorescent lights, pallets, and plastic bottles. Agencies would benefit from using the state’s Markets Directory resource to find recycling market options for their materials. Some state agencies, like community colleges or regional offices, may find assistance by reaching out to their local government recycling contacts. DEAO also offers three statewide recycling outreach campaigns that are available to help promote recycling programs. Find all these resources and more below. Contact Rachel Eckert at (919) 707-8132 or rachel.eckert@ncdenr.gov for further assistance.

Legislative Guidance
Annual Recycling ReportThe State Agency Recycling Report is due each year on November 15. The legislative mandate requiring this report has been waved, but the report is still required in order to receive recycling grant funds from DEAO. PDFs of the report form are posted below for your convenience. You can print them for yourself and share with regional offices to collect data, but you cannot submit the PDF. You must submit the report via the survey monkey link in the email sent by Rachel Eckert, DEAO.
This report is sent directly to specific agency contacts. If you think you might be responsible for this report and did not yet receive it, or if you have any other questions about the report, please contact Rachel Eckert at rachel.eckert@ncdenr.gov or 919-707-8132.
