WM has been a member of the Wildlife Habitat Council (WHC) since the 1980’s, a standing that exemplifies its commitment to improving wildlife habitat through the enrichment of pre-existing habitat and the establishment of new habitat on the company’s landholdings.
WM provides over 100 WHC certified sites and over 25,000 acres of protected wildlife habitat area at our facilities across the country.
Eagle Valley received its certification in 2010 and uses the program to enhance the educational experience of visitors to our site. Not only is it important to reduce, reuse and recycle, but it is equally important for individuals to connect with nature. The more connected we are to our natural environment the more likely we are to be good stewards of it.
The Wildlife Habitat Program at Eagle Valley provides important habitat to native wildlife as well as allowing employees and local community members to become engaged in outdoor education.
