Waste facilities in NSW are required by law to submit various reports to the EPA.

Processing organics on a commercial scale increases the community's ability to recover and conserve resources and reduces the quantity of organics going to landfills. Recycled organics applied to land can provide multiple benefits to soil health and crop growth, including improved soil structure, improved water retention and higher yields.

As we divert more food and garden organics from landfill in NSW, it is important to make best possible use of the recycled product as a valuable commodity. 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.
