This CalRecycle program pays for moving empty glass beverage containers by rail to certified glass processing facilities in California. Awards run $500,000 to $4,000,000, but total funding is only $4,000,000, so realistically one or two applicants get paid. If you are not a current Certified Glass Processor or a business moving glass containers by rail in California, do not bother applying.
