Materials Management Planning
Staff serves as the Designated Planning Agency (DPA) for Materials Management Planning (MMP) in Saginaw County, as required by Michigan law.
Saginaw County is currently in the process of creating a Materials Management Plan (formerly Solid Waste Management Plan) in accordance with PA115 which became effective on March 29, 2023.
The County Solid Waste Plan also calls for the continuation of an oversight committee to ensure that the goals and objectives of the plan are followed. The DPA provides staff support to the Materials Management Planning Committee. The duties of this committee include the following:
- Review the County Solid Waste Plan annually and update it as necessary.
- Hold quarterly meetings.
- Review any import/export applications from non-contiguous counties.
- Act as the Site Review Committee if new construction or expansion applications are submitted.
- Monitor the performance of continued planning activities.
- Solicit and review proposals from eligible applicants for educational activities funding.
- Recommend an annual solid waste budget to the County Board of Commissioners for adoption.
