Registration Cancellation Policy

The USCC is not responsible for problems beyond our control such as travel- and weather-related conditions; site conditions; prepaid parking, tours etc.; and no refunds will be given in those situations. Any other extenuating circumstances not covered here may be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Cancellation requests must be made in writing and submitted via email to Gowri Sundaram gsundaram@compostingcouncil.org. Refunds of full registration fees will only be made if the cancellation request is received by November 30, 2022. USCC will retain no more than $50 as a refund administration fee. No refunds will be issued for any reason after December 1, 2022.

If you have already registered and are unable to attend, USCC will honor your registration fee as a credit for COMPOST2024. If you have purchased the recordings as part of your registration but are unable to attend, you will be able to access the Compost 2023 recordings through your Compost University account, here: https://www.compostu.net. If you wish to purchase the recordings separately, please email hessa@compostingcouncil.org.

Beware of Hotel and Attendee-list Scams

Attendees and exhibitors at major association events such as COMPOST2023 can be targeted by scammers, selling attendee lists, soliciting hotel bookings and more. In the case that you receive a phishing email, please do not engage with the sender or forward these messages on to your coworkers. We ask that you take a screenshot of the message, send it to uscc@compostingcouncil.org, and delete the email immediately.

No one at USCC, Green Fern Events (GFE) or Capitol Hill Management Services (CHMS) will ask for funds without providing an invoice number and a www.compostingcouncil.org payment URL. To verify the legitimacy of these emails, please see the list of authorized domains below:
