DEC accepts online applications for Municipal Recycling Grants
The Department of Environmental Conservation administers funding from the Environmental Protection Fund for grants to assist municipalities in New York State with costs of recycling equipment, facilities, education or coordination. State funding will reimburse up to 50 percent of the costs of eligible municipal recycling expenses up to $2 million per grant.   

Municipalities that wish to apply must be registered in the State’s Grants Gateway. To begin the application process, go to the Grant Opportunity Portal.

Applications for recycling grants are accepted from municipalities on an ongoing basis and placed on a waiting list based on the date the application is received. More information on this program can be found on DEC’s website.
