Athens-Clarke County Solid Waste Department (ACCSW)

ACCSW enacted a robust pandemic response to protect its workers and the public while continuing service without interruption. None of its facilities were closed during the pandemic nor were any collection routes altered or services suspended. ACCSW demonstrated the successful implementation of its Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP), provided ongoing safety information and training to workers, and embodied the Athens-Clarke County Unified Government’s campaign, “We’re all in this together.”
