BWM administers grant programs related to solid waste planning,
solid waste plan implementation, household hazardous waste collection and
disposal, agricultural pesticide collection and disposal, and small business
waste collection and disposal.
Competitive Solid Waste Plan Implementation Grants are issued
to cities, counties, private companies, and organizations. The grants are
periodically awarded in rounds, based on revenues generated by solid waste
tipping fees. Click on the links below to see where and how these funds have

Recycling and Composting
Grants
This grant program has traditionally supported a wide variety of
recycling and composting projects. In this expedited round of grants,
time-sensitive projects of these types will be remain eligible, but the
focus and priority will be to establish "pilot electronic waste collection
centers." KDHE intends to support the development of five pilot collection
centers, including regional centers, to help policy makers understand how
best to collect and recycle e-waste. Counties will be responsible for
implementing the pilot collection centers; however, they may designate a
private company to serve them in this way.
E-Waste applicants are required to attend a Grant Workshop.

Waste Tire Grants - SFY 2010
Waste Tire Grants for Playground cover and Other Tire-Derived Products
In accordance with legislative directives, KDHE intends to implement the second grant program to stimulate the production and sale of commercial products made from recycled Kansas waste tires. The first phase was to award equipment grants to Kansas tire recyclers to process the tires into a usable raw material. This grant is to support the purchase of products made from recycled tires including playground cover. This grant program will be competitive and pay up to 50% of the cost of the products.
The filing deadline will be April 6, 2009 - Closed
