The Center for Infrastructure Research at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln received a grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to perform waste reduction assessments on seven categories of businesses and industries within the State of Nebraska. Federal funding for waste minimization projects has been made available to state governments and institutions in recent history due to the decreasing number of landfIlls nationwide and increasing quantities of waste generated each year. This report summarizes the results of waste reduction assessments performed on grocery stores in Nebraska.
