Waste Dive has formatted a revised list of all industry recipients for loans under $150,000 and over $150,000 for public access.
Despite these millions in funds, waste and recycling operations across the country continue to be strained by the pandemic's effects on the economy and consumption habits, in some cases facing lower revenues and shifting volumes. Many local governments stretching funds across an array of public services in need are also struggling to adequately support the sector, though this package did not include specific funding for them.
Waste and recycling businesses may again have the opportunity to seek PPP loans from the federal government thanks to a notable portion of the $900 billion deal cleared through Congress – pending Trump's veto threat. The $284 billion in funds available mark a little more than half of what was distributed from the program's earlier allocation.
