Green Recognition program accepting nominations
The City of Richland is taking applications for the 2009 "Green Recognition" awards. The yearly recognition program honors business, organizations, groups, schools or individuals in several "green" categories -- overall effort, project, process change or other. The award brings recognition and acknowledgment to those that live or do business in Richland whose efforts or changed practices are better for our environment. "Green" practices may include in-house recycling, creative ways of reusing items, reducing water, solid, and/or chemical waste, conservation of energy and electricity or reduction of air pollution effluents. Applications are due July 17. More information and applications are available on the city's Environmental Education website. Contact Gail Everett at 509-942-7730.
