Problems related to the balance of relations between human activities and the natural environment are particularly visible in the environmental goods and services sector. There are inter-organizational networks in this sector based on recycling, treatment, reclamation processes and the provision of municipal services. These networks can be operational or supervisory-control. The paper presents a case study of a network dedicated to recycling, processing and management of post-consumer waste, such as tires. The work has the character of theoretical assumptions and operationalization of concepts for empirical research, which will be a continuation of the ongoing project of relationships analysis in a selected sector.
