Bio-Gro has developed an <br /> expanding market for compost that includes landscapers, <br /> contractors, farmers, golf courses, nurseries, greenhouses and land <br /> reclamation projects. <br /> Bio-Gro's primary responsibility is to provide efficient compost <br /> program operations and marketing. This includes identification of <br /> end-use markets, participation in educational programs, and <br /> demonstrations to broaden the customer base. Bio-Gro's <br /> promotional plan also includes advertisements, trade show <br /> attendance, seminars and technical support. Their complete <br /> marketing service provides all contact for product shipment, invoicing <br /> and payment collection services. <br /> All of the material that is not diverted into a composting operation <br /> will be channelled into any one of a number of Southern California <br /> wood boiler fuel markets all of which will qualify for landfill diversion <br /> credit. These markets will provide a cost-effective alternative for <br /> those materials that are not directed to a composting operation. <br /> Summary <br /> Waste Management and its joint venture partners in material <br /> marketing, Stone Container, American National Can, and Bio-Gro <br /> 64 <br />
