DIVERT 60% AND 90% OF PAPER WASTE BY 2030 AND 2050, RESPECTIVELY.

Q1 Progress

Reported January 2025

Because of good landfill management practices that entail aggressive gas collection and re-sale, the emissions from the waste sector in Dallas are very minimal. However, during the public engagement part of developing the CECAP, there was significant public interest in additional actions within this sector. In FY 24-25, 6 actions from this sector, with 20 milestones will be initiated. Implementation of these milestones will involve collaboration between the following City departments:

  • Code Compliance

  • Environmental Quality & Sustainability

  • Park and Recreation

  • Procurement Services

  • Sanitation Services

  • Arts and Culture

 

Note: Actions marked as ongoing span multiple fiscal years, meaning efforts will be carried out continuously and therefore will not be marked complete until the end of this fiscal year.
