Solid Waste Mission Statement

Our primary duties are to maintain, comply with, regularly update and oversee implementation of the Kitsap County Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan (CSWMP) and the Moderate Risk Waste Management Plan (MRWMP). We will oversee cost-effective implementation of the CSWMP and the MRWMP. We believe it is important to support professional development of staff so each member is a resource to the community and to the Department in their area of expertise.

We fulfill our mission through:

Administering solid waste disposal operations at the Olympic View Transfer Station, three recycling and garbage facilities (Hansville, Silverdale and Olalla), and one recycling center (Poulsbo)
Operating a Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility serving homeowners and small businesses
Overseeing post-closure activities at two closed landfills, including clean-up action plans as required
Administering and monitoring waste reduction/recycling programs, including residential and business recycling, organics management, and product stewardship efforts
Providing education to residents, community groups, schoolchildren, and businesses concerning proper solid waste management practices
Coordinating litter and illegal dumping cleanup and prevention efforts through the Clean Kitsap Program
