 The cities and counties within the District provide solid waste services to their citizens. Portions of those recycling services are financially supported through recycling grants administered by the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality. Waste diversion and reduction is the ultimate goal for waste generated in the Natural State. Grant dollars that support diversion services are accumulated from a portion of statewide tipping fees collected at landfills. The District assists its stakeholders in grant application and reporting, putting those grant dollars to use in each of our communities. Revenue streams that support the Ozark Mountain Solid Waste District include grants, tipping fees, and solid waste hauler permits.

The next step in responsibility lies in each of our District homes, schools, and businesses. The responsibility lies within you. Please be responsible in how you handle the waste you generate. Try to generate less! Use the recycling and waste services in your area. Encourage your neighbor to take part in good solid waste practices. We are all proud to call the Ozark Mountains home.
