- Recommend regulations that support safe food donations
- Identify stable funding for food waste reduction efforts and food waste management
- Indicate opportunities for technical support for organizations working in food waste recovery and prevention
- Help develop K–12 food waste reduction
- Facilitate safe food donations from restaurants and food markets
- Recommend best management practices for local governments to incorporate into their local solid waste management plans
