Resources for Participating in the U.S. State Data Measurement Sharing Program

We are grateful for the dedication of our State Measurement Program partners and their efforts to reduce and divert waste. EPA is planning to evolve our Sustainable Materials Management partnership programs to align with our new priorities. At this time, we are no longer accepting new State Measurement Program partners. These resources are provided for reference. 

These documents provide a comprehensive introduction to State Data Measurement Program (SMP) including a complete program description, definitions used and material flow diagram, template and module of questions, comprehensive list of program changes 2012 to 2016, frequent questions and EPA’s Great Lakes Region (Region 5) state funding and program comparison examples.
