Coming Soon! Recycling Resources Economic Opportunity (RREO) Request for Applications
Colorado Waste Diversion Grant: Building Opportunities to Maximize Waste Diversion and Create Jobs in Colorado
The purpose of the upcoming Request for Applications (RFA) is to fund projects, sustainable beyond the grant period that will enhance the financial viability of recycling, composting, reuse, repurposing, and waste reduction in Colorado and will create new jobs in the state. Preventing waste before it is created is the most effective reduction method (reduce), followed by reuse, and recycle. In addition to waste diversion projects, the RFA will encourage applications with a focus on reducing contamination. This is the 15th funding cycle for this RFA.
The RFA is expected to be available on November 7, 2022, with applications due on January 5, 2023. Projects are anticipated to begin on July 1, 2023.
Please email cdphe.ppp2@state.co.us with any questions prior to November 7th. Questions submitted after November 7th will be part of the formal questions & answers process.
