Environmental Services Funding 

The solid waste portion of the division is funded primarily from disposal fees that are charged to customers who dispose of their waste at county-owned and contracted facilities. Revenue is also generated from garbage hauler franchise fees, the​ sale of electrical power produced at the Energy-from-Waste Facility (EFW), and metal recovered at the EFW.
