The Wipe Out Waste Awards were presented at the KESAB Sustainable Communities Awards event on 28th November 2017. Many of the sites recognised below have worked with Wipe Out Waste, KESAB Waste Education and NRM Education. A number of sites have shown efforts in waste reduction and management, obviously with great results! Also many thanks to the Resource Recovery sites that support education initiatives in many ways and over many years. Awards were presented by Ian Harvey from Green Industries SA.
