Intro to Alberta EPR for Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs)—EPR Virtual Lunch and Learn Series

Welcome to ARMA’s EPR Virtual Lunch and Learn Series!

For over three decades, the Alberta Recycling Management Authority (ARMA) has been at the forefront of stewarding provincial recycling programs for used electronics, paint, tires, and used oil and materials. Our success is not possible without the resounding commitment of Albertans who continue to do the right thing—to recycle. Today, Alberta boasts over 430 registered municipal and Indigenous collection sites, ranking third-highest in Canada.

We are now embarking on a new chapter to continue advancing our vision of inspiring a future without waste transitioning Alberta to an Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) system that shifts the physical and financial burden of collecting, sorting, processing, and recycling waste away from municipal governments and taxpayers, to the producer.

These virtual sessions provide an opportunity for stakeholders like yourselves to engage with our organization and guest presenters, ensuring you remain well-informed regarding EPR processes and development while having your questions and concerns promptly addressed. As well, please be advised that these virtual webinar sessions will be recorded and available online for later viewing.
