The state's waste prevention and recycling program, known as Project Recycle, is administered by the California Integrated Waste Management Board (Board).  Project Recycle's primary objective is to reduce the amount of waste materials generated at state facilities and increase the materials recycled.  Each state facility with the assistance and approval of the Board is required to set up recycling programs for all recyclable materials where feasible.  The Board's Internet location is http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/.
