To help owners/managers of multifamily housing properties with five or more units comply with state and county recycling regulations, the County Recycling Departments of Pierce and Pepin Counties commissioned the Survey Research Center (SRC) at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls to do a survey of these properties. The goals of the survey were to determine current recycling practices, gauge the level of understanding of and compliance with owner/manager responsibilities regarding recycling, identify barriers to recycling in apartment complexes and do a general assessment of recycling facilities in apartment complexes.
