EPR Municipal Transition Webinar on April 20

Alberta Municipalities is teaming up with the Recycling Council of Alberta (RCA) and Rural Municipalities of Alberta to present a webinar about preparing your municipality for Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) on April 20, 2022, from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. 

The webinar is a great opportunity to ask questions and hear from your municipal peers in other jurisdictions about their planning efforts and experiences in undertaking the transition from municipal to producer responsibility. Guest speakers who have already implemented EPR will share their experiences and lessons learned. You will also hear from speakers gearing up for the transition as they discuss what they are doing to prepare.

The workshop will be moderated by The City of Calgary’s Jason London, a long-time member of the RCA’s EPR Project Team, and introduced by Leah Seabrook from Strathcona County. Speakers confirmed to date include:

  • Jason London – City of Calgary
  • Leah Seabrook – Strathcona County
  • Dave Faris Yousif – Region of Peel (Ontario)
  • Dave Gordon – Association of Municipalities of Ontario
  • Kristina Nishi – Richmond (British Columbia)
  • Sarah Willie – Comox Valley Regional District (British Columbia)
  • Tera Grady - Cariboo Regional District (British Columbia)
