Twenty-four graduate and undergraduate Industrial Design and Design Management
students from the University of Kansas set studied the public waste and recycling system for the City of Lawrence, Kansas. Students also researched best practices broadly for waste and recycling. Business (economic), technology, and customer experience factors were considered. The result is a rough design plan for phased implementation of a more efficient, comprehensive waste management system for the City of Lawrence with the promise of increased convenience and significantly improved rates of household recycling behavior.
1. What Can Local Governments Do?
Contents:
These slides offer some additional explanation of product stewardship
focusing on the local government role, as well as specific suggestions for
things that local governments can do to make product stewardship happen.
2. The amount of waste generated has
continued to rise & costs of waste
management continue to rise
3. Local governments are responsible for
dealing with any and all waste that
comes their way.
They have no control over:
- the quantity of waste
- or the materials
5. Government-funded programs are still not
collecting all household hazardous waste :
• Local governments don’t
have the budget to
adequately promote &
expand these programs
•People don’t know they
should not throw away
certain goods with their
trash.
Did you know? A 30” TV
contains 8 lbs of lead?
6. Because people do not have adequate
disposal options, taxpayer dollars are
spent to clean up the resulting mess
8. Or through environmental remediation
needed to remove the toxic substances
from our drinking water and soils
9. An alternate model:
Product Stewardship
Producers rather than government
assume responsibility for the
management of certain goods
Many businesses are already doing this in
Nebraska on a voluntary basis
10. An alternate model:
Product Stewardship
The Old Way: The New Way:
Government- managed Businesses manage
programs costs
Government responsibility Businesses responsible
Visible ‘deposits’ Cost of safe
customers saw on management included
their receipts (ex. tires) in the product’s cost
(like marketing costs)
This public money could be better spent on education
or infrastructure rather than managing unused paint or
tires
11. So how will product stewardship
change local government’s role?
Choose whether to continue collecting
products
Get reimbursed for costs to manage
products that are covered by product
stewardship programs
Focus your resources on other needs in
the community
12. Does this mean local governments won’t
collect waste products any more?
• No! In most cases,
you can CHOOSE
whether to continue
to collect if it works
for you.
• Retailers may also
start to collect the
product(s) as well.

Consumers Local Gov’t Producers
• Dispose of • Serve as • Reimburse
goods at collection local gov’t for
collection points collection
centers or (depending • Responsible
curbside on the for
program & transportation
arrangement & recycling of
made with their goods
producers)
14. How would it work?

16. What can local governments do to
promote product stewardship?
1. Encourage residents to take advantage of existing
programs (mail-back & retail)
2. Provide input to policy makers about how existing
systems are working
3. Advocate for local ordinances and state laws
4. Conduct pilot programs to test
new systems for collection
17. What can local governments do

management
