New Mexico adds recycling staff and planning
New Mexico’s Environment Department gains two positions: a recycling and waste reduction coordinator and a circular economy coordinator. Both use the Recycling and Illegal Dumping Fund; no funding amount is stated. A new statewide alliance develops strategies to increase recycling, reuse materials, and reduce illegal dumping. The environment secretary appoints members from government, business, and community groups to unpaid two-year terms. The alliance reviews grant requests, recommends funding, and updates a circular economy plan every three years within the state’s solid waste management plan.
