Business owners in King County can learn how to reduce waste, recycle more and cut their operating costs by participating two workshops scheduled for October.
Sponsored by the King County Solid Waste Division as part of its efforts to increase recycling rates and save landfill room for what really needs to be there. The workshops are scheduled for 7:45 a.m. to noon, at the Lytle House at Bothell Landing, 9929 N.E. 180th St., Bothell Oct. 7 and Oct. 21.
