This includes feasibility studies, waste characterization studies as well as pilot projects in waste and organics diversion using cutting edge waste to value-add technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The scope of the initiatives that EWC helps design and implement for municipalities and other clients is such that they provide a good understanding of current waste characteristics, existing waste management gaps in communities and waste management programs as well as identifying appropriate innovative\/green technologies to best manage municipal waste. Bringing municipalities together in regional low-carbon emissions clusters helps to create synergies and economies of scale and makes possible initiatives that would otherwise be beyond the capabilities of individual local governments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the sharing of best practices, the data and knowledge gained from these initiatives also enables other interested communities to make intelligent decisions on the path forward for value-added waste management, waste diversion, and the recovery and proper disposal of specific and challenging waste streams. Using a collaborative approach within the context of regional municipal ecosystems, we ensure that municipal goals and objectives are maintained or enhanced to maximize benefits to participating communities and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EWC thus focuses on ways to create sustainable economic development in smaller, rural municipalities who otherwise could not make a go of it on their own due to limited financial and human resources, as well as a lack of knowledge and expertise. This is where EWC continues to play a pivotal role, acting as a local and regional facilitator and advising municipalities on how to move towards achieving their sustainable waste management goals.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column_07050a-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{padding-left:50px;}.kadence-column_07050a-50 >
