This VORS 2021 webinar from the US Composting Council (USCC) discusses their upcoming Model Zoning Template, designed for adoption by cities, counties and towns to implement in their zoning codes.

Compost manufacturers looking to open facilities or expand are often stymied by lack of zoning and this Model Template was formed from a study of the zoning codes that are out in the policy-sphere as best zoning practices for small, large, and on-farm sites, as well as consolidation (collection) sites for community composting.
