The Solid Waste Advisory Committee (SWAC) is comprised of a county-wide eleven-member group of citizens, public interest groups, business, the waste management and recycling industries and local elected public officials. The SWAC provides for coordination and information exchange between the groups about solid waste issues as well as providing ongoing public input and advice to Whatcom County on solid waste management issues. The meetings are open to the public.
Currently, the SWAC meets the 4th Thursday of every other month at 5:30 PM, though this is subject to cancellation or change. Meetings are usually held at the Public Works 2nd floor conference room, 322 N. Commercial Street, Bellingham, WA.
