Our vision:
A safe and healthy Kitsap County for all.
Pollution Prevention Assistance
The Pollution Prevention Assistance (PPA) program provides free hands-on assistance to Small Quantity Generators (businesses that make 220 lbs. or less of hazardous waste each month) who want to learn how to handle their hazardous waste safely and help prevent polluting their community.
Through the PPA program, Kitsap Public Health offers free technical assistance to local businesses to help reduce or eliminate hazardous waste. A specialist can meet with your business to evaluate procedures and practices and help solve any hazardous waste issues.
If a business makes changes based on our recommendations, we can reimburse the costs of those changes with a voucher of up to $500.
Call us at 360-728-2235 to learn more!
