  1. Understanding SB 1016 Solid Waste Per Capita Disposal Measurement Act

  2. From Diversion… • Diversion Rate: • Complex mathematical calculations and estimates • 18-24 months to determine final calculations • Focus on 50 percent rather than implementing effective programs

  3. …to Disposal • Per Capita Disposal Rate: • Simplifies: calculates disposal per person within a jurisdiction • Six months to determine final calculations • Less “bean counting” and more resources towards program implementation

  4. How does this Change 50%? • Old system: 50% or MORE Diversion plus program implementation equals success • New system: 50% or LESS Disposal plus program implementation equals success • Under SB 1016, lower per capita disposal equal less waste

  5. 50% Equivalent Per Capita Disposal Target 10.0 lbs /person /day 50% per capita disposal target = jurisdiction’s 50% diversion rate under the old system. 5.0 lbs /person /day Base Period Generation (All Disposal + All Diversion) 50% Per Capita Disposal Target (50% of Base Generation)

  6. Each Jurisdiction is Unique • Differing demographics and industrial bases within jurisdictions • Impossible to compare targets and progress to other jurisdictions

  7. Compliance Impacts of SB 1016 • Compliance remains unchanged • Disposal number is a factor to consider, but does NOT determine compliance • Evaluation focused on how jurisdictions are implementing their programs • Technical assistance for struggling programs

  8. SB 1016 RecapWhat Stakeholders Asked For! • Simplified, accurate and timely • Maintains 50% requirement • Emphasis on program implementation instead of number crunching • Increase CIWMB staff field presence to provide technical assistance
