Notice of Funding Availability
Industrial Symbiosis Program grant application open now through Nov. 1
Commerce has grant funding available through the Industrial Symbiosis Program (ISP) to support projects that advance the concept that economic growth does not have to equal waste, supporting the directives of the Legislature in RCW 43.31.625.
This program is a catalyst for transforming industrial waste from one industry to a valuable product in another, stimulating job creation and economic development, and contributing to a cleaner future for Washington.
