Acknowledgments

We gratefully acknowledge the encouragement of the following foundations, which have been indispensable supporters of NRDC's solid waste program in New York: Robert Sterling Clark Foundation; The J.M. Kaplan Fund, Inc.; The New York Times Company Foundation; Edward John Noble Foundation; The Lily Auchincloss Foundation; and The Edith C. Blum Foundation.

We also thank our 500,000 members, without whom our work to protect the urban environment, as well as NRDC's other wide-ranging environmental programs, would not be possible.

In addition, we are grateful to the New York City Council and its dedicated staff (including Allison Sachs and Jeff Haberman), and especially Environmental Protection Committee Chairman Stanley Michels (and Steve Simon, his chief of staff), for their recent assistance and their long-running support for New York City's recycling program.

Finally, we appreciate the wise counsel of our NRDC colleagues -- Mark Izeman, Alan Metrick and Kathy Parrent, and the graphic design assistance of Matthew Cohen.
