The Brown County Waste Stream Committee is one of four economic development committees created in March 2012 by Brown County Executive Troy Streckenbach. This committee focused on establishing an attainable business plan and long-term strategy of redirecting the amount of waste going into landfills and turning it into marketable, saleable materials, thus positioning Brown County to be economically and environmentally sustainable. EMBI interns Robyn Nielsen and Jennifer Jankiewicz assisted the Committe with the development of a White Paper outlining a long-term strategy.
