When there is a buildup of trash/recycling that usually is collected but recently is not, often is because it is not properly prepared for collection. Trash and recycling crews will not collect anything that is not properly prepped and do not collect Bulk Waste and DLA Disposition materials. There are 2 Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that layout exactly how to prepare your trash/recycle for collection (EMP 15.10 Solid Waste Guide & EMP 15.7 Recycling Guides).
Typical reasons for refused collection:
Personnel in On-Base Military Family Housing must follow Kadena Housing Office guidance for refuse and recycling procedures. Please contact Kadena Housing Office or the Kadena Environmental Office.
Contact your Installation Environmental Coordinator for more detailed information or assistance.
2 things need to happen to become a ECC or HWAP Manager.

2) A letter of designation appointing the individual in the role. For the Primary ECC the designation must be signed by the Unit CO. All other appointments may be signed by the Primary ECC.
