The County of Monterey, with its moderate Mediterranean climate, is a diverse community set in a picturesque coastal location. Boasting such world-renowned attractions as the spectacular Big Sur Coast, Laguna Seca Raceway, 17-Mile Drive, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Cannery Row, the Steinbeck Center, the Monterey Jazz and Blues Festivals and Pebble Beach – possibly the world’s most famous golf course, it’s easy to see why so many choose to live here and an estimated 4 million visitors a year make Monterey County their destination of choice. Established in 1951 as a Garbage and Refuse Disposal District, ReGen Monterey (formerly known as the Monterey Regional Waste Management District) has been an industry pioneer in providing cost-effective solid waste management and resource recovery services
