The EPA is investing in the development of strong, viable, sustainable markets for recycled organics, including support for producers, and compliance programs to assure organics product quality and safety.

Managing industrial waste
Certain wastes have properties that make them hazardous or potentially harmful to human health or the environment. As well as the general regulatory requirements relating to waste, additional regulatory requirements may apply. The EPA enforces these rules to protect our air, waterways, land and the health of the community for the future.
