EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Waste Management, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement to reflect a change in the full title of the Plans to which it applies. Effective September 23, 2015, the Waste Management Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees previously included on this Registration Statement was merged into the Waste Management Retirement Savings Plan. Accordingly, the Registrant has removed the Waste Management Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees from the cover of this Registration Statement. As a result, no shares of Common Stock of the Registrant remain available for issuance pursuant to the Waste Management Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees, and all remaining shares previously registered for issuance on the Form S-8 Registration Statement No. 333-184156 may only be issued pursuant to the Waste Management Retirement Savings Plan.
