We will Review and Continue Implementing our Goals from 2012
We have a robust list of current initiatives and projects for us to lead the California compost industry in 2012. Please see them on the "AP Goals-2012" worksheet in the most recent "ACP Steps Feb 2012" attached (and below on this email).
Please join us in two weeks to help us implement the initiatives that you feel are important for the California compost industry, as well as help us lead the California Compost Industry expansion and quality enhancement!
We hope can join with us to implement the action steps for your USCC State Chapter in 2012, starting with this meeting!
Sincerely,
