Abstract |
This report, authorized as mandated in Section 7007(c) of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, is divided into the following topics: (1) a workforce profile and analysis section studying the workforce needs of public and private agencies involved in solid waste management and recovery; (2) a section analyzing what are considered by sources in the field to be the principal blockages to initial employment and career advancement in solid waste management; and (3) an analysis of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's responsibilities for workforce development and training activities. Information in the report was obtained primarily from personnel, on-site interviews with officials directly involved in solid waste management, including officials at Federal, State, and local levels; representatives from the private sector and from professional associations; and academic officials connected with postsecondary educational programs in solid waste management. |
