Laura Selanders has been working in environmental compliance for her entire career, and specifically within EPR since 2007. She has held various positions within the financial services, transportation and retail sectors with a focus on environmental risk management. Her introduction to EPR was upon joining Home Depot Canada as the Senior Manager Environmental Compliance and Sustainability, and during that role, she sat on boards and working committees including ARMA, EPRA, CESA and Stewardship Ontario. Laura joined CESA as President in 2013 and has been focused on bringing costs down and recycled tonnage up over the past decade. Laura believes EPR is a highly effective way for municipalities to better manage waste and recycling, and puts the onus on industry to manage products at end of life in a cost-effective manner. “Effective extended producer responsibility starts with a regulatory framework that allows industry the freedom to meet its obligations.”
