Summary
County and Morris County Municipal Utilities Authority staff discussed coordinating adoption of a county resolution designating MCMUA to manage the Recycling Tonnage Grant program under the Recycling Enhancement Act of 2025.
Morris County and the Morris County Municipal Utilities Authority (MCMUA) staff reported coordination on implementing the Recycling Enhancement Act of 2025 and on the county resolution designating the MCMUA to manage the county's Recycling Tonnage Grant (RPA) application process.
The nut graf: MCMUA and county recycling staff said the authority adopted a spending plan at its May 13 meeting and will coordinate with county staff on a commissioner resolution that authorizes MCMUA to manage Morris County's RPA grant application. Officials described this as a required annual administrative step to secure tonnage grant funds.
County and MCMUA representatives said staff are working with municipalities to maximize their recycling‑tonnage grant applications and that the MCMUA adopted a spending plan aligned with the Recycling Enhancement Act (R.E.A.) of 2025. The county will coordinate the formal commissioner resolution adopting MCMUA as the designated managing agency for the RPA grant.
Ending: Staff said they will circulate the county resolution for adoption and coordinate with municipalities to complete RPA applications and revisions before submission deadlines.
