ST. CLOUD (WJON News) -- Residents, farmers, and businesses in Stearns County can apply for grant money to help recycle old tires.

The county is administering the grants through the Select Committee on Recycling and the Environment program known as S.C.O.R.E..

Grants of up to $2,500 are available for reimbursement, but the recycling plan must show that at least 25% of the recycling cost is paid for by the applicant.

To be eligible, applicants must complete an application, submit a W-9 form, and submit a disposal plan that includes a licensed recycling facility.

Applications are available on the Stearns County website.
