This program, administered by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), provides reimbursement grants to Florida counties for expenses associated with local hazardous waste management. The grant is specifically for counties that have established permanent hazardous waste collection facilities under the original Hazardous Waste Collection Center Grant but have not yet received the full $100,000 allocation available per county. The goal is to help eligible counties access the remaining balance of their original grant to enhance hazardous waste management capacity, promote safe disposal, and increase public awareness.
