Author Description

This study was commissioned by Environment Australia to document what is happening at the moment in terms of waste tyres, what is the potential for improvement, and how we might move to take advantage of the possibilities through action by government and industry at a national level. The structure of the study follows these objectives. A preliminary report was prepared (now Part I of this report) as the basis for discussion at a national workshop held on 14 December 2000. The aim of the workshop was to provide guidance for developing and evaluating possible policy options and responses (written up in Part II of the report).
