Roger working on the APPA connection- work on a local connection for
the regional APPA groups - how do we use our resources regionally and
not give up a national connection with them?
we need to start looking at memberships/partnerships with other
(non college/university) non-profits & for profits-- some kind
of partnership rate? how do we tie into other orgs? development
issue- relationships that we've developed/not developed over the
years-- need some sort of parameters on who/why/how we enter into
partnerships. Member

policy restricts sale/exchange of mailing list- NRC guidelines & policies.
How does privacy policy impact the CURC profiles? Profiles are voluntary & NRC

needed here please!
6] Regional
Rep roles
what's the
appropriate role for Regional reps? APPA contacts? courtesy message
with info on Steering Committee minutes--
stronger communication on what CURC is doing. Regional contact for
technical info without duplicating work of state "CURCs".
how best to work with these groups? Enhance what's going on at state
level. Pete/Roger will send out a Regional Rep - who we are, what we
do etc. to the RR's.
7] NRC Awards
judge
we have
a volunteer. sorry...it's top secret!
8] CURC's
role in Program support
larger
issue of some role that CURC can play in struggling/
under fire programs. How do we add value to those
kinds of issues. Good opportunity for Regional Reps nvolvement.
How & if
CURC can help? What can we do?
How prepared are we to get into the qualitative issues? Core operation?
Peripheral operation? Building sustainable programs? How do we evaluate
a particular circumstance? Do we/ can we provide a more generic advocacy
for recycling in operations?
Generic promotional/advertising approach?
What's your idea?
