BACKGROUND: e The County of Orange Integrated Waste Management Department (IWMD) has initiated a Regional Recycling and Waste Diversion Grant Program to provide financial support and incentives to partner cities and special districts to promote greater participation in recycling and waste diversion programs throughout Orange County. The Board of Supervisors has allocated $1,000,000 to support this program for fiscal year 2007/08. Available funding will be dispersed on a per capita basis with cities being grouped by population into small, medium and large-sized cities. The funding allocation available to City of Seal Beach is $20,000. e Participation in the program requires the adoption of a Resolution of Participation by the City, a submittal of the City's intended use of the grant funds and agreement to comply with the conditions outlined in the document. Only new or significantly expanded programs/activities will be awarded funding. In previous years, the City of Seal Beach has partnered with the City of Cypress for application of other grant funds used for oil recycling, etc. This year, the City will be submitting an individual grant proposal to implement a pilot city-wide door-to-door household hazardous waste management program to remove unwanted electronic waste (E-Waste such as computers, printers, and cell phones) and universal waste (U-Waste banned from regular trash disposal) as well as Sharps (needles, etc.) and Non-Controlled Medicines stored in residents' homes. Agenda Item () e Curbside Inc. based in Anaheim has managed many City collection programs in the Southern California area and has proposed to provide additional collection programs through this grant program. Door-to-door collection of Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) is their specialty and is very familiar with reporting and disposal requirements for HHW. The proposed household hazardous waste management program is designed to supplement the County of Orange program (permanent center sites and regional one-day events) by allowing residents a convenient recycling opportunity with a one time per year collection from the residents' homes. Since sharps and medicines are not currently accepted at any of the County Permanent Centers, this will provide an opportunity for residents to properly dispose of such items. This year's grant allocation of $20,000 will permit the City to implement a one- year citywide collection service for our residents. Under the proposed program, residents will have the opportunity to use the program one time per year. .' FINANCIAL IMPACT: Upon approval of the City's grant application, the City will receive a one-time grant of $20,000 to implement the Household Hazardous Waste Management Program. If IWMD deems the Grant Program a success, addi~ional funds may be available in subsequent years on a multi-year basis. e RECOMMENDATION: City Council to approve the following resolutions: 1. A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Seal Beach, Califomia Authorizing City Participation in the County of Orange Regional Recycling and Waste Diversion Grant Program, and 2. A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Seal Beach, California Approving An Agreement For Household Hazardous Waste Management Program between the City of Seal Beach and Curbside, Inc. , SUBMITTED BY: ~ NOTED AND APPROVED: ~s:=- ~ David Carmany, City Manager J , Assistant City Manager Attachments: e A, B.

Anticipated Outcome: Program will encourage greater participation in recycling and disposing of hazardous materials through the once-a-year door to door collection program and assist seniors and disabled in properly disposing of such materials. 10f3 e PROJECT & ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: Door to door collection program provides Seal Beach residents the opportunity to remove unwanted waste once a year from their residence and will supplement the residents' trips to permanent centers and County regional collection events. BRIEFLY EXPLAIN THE NEED: Because HHW disposal requires local residents to drive out of Seal Beach to dispose of their unwanted waste, such material may currently be dmnped into the regular waste stream. for convenience rather adhering to the HHW requirements. It may also be difficult for seniors and disabled to properly dispose ofHHW such as Sharps and Medicines. GOALS & OBJECTIVES OF PROPOSED PROGRAM: To reduce illegal disposal in regular waste stream and provide residents with an accessible method of disposal of unwanted waste. PROJECT TIMELINE: One year trial program. e PARTNERSHIPS: None OTHER FUNDING SOURCES: None ANTICIPATED ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Increased participation in Household Hazardous Waste Management Program. Increased public awareness of diversion. DESCRIBE PROPOSED METIlOD OF MEASUREMENT: All waste collected will be recorded on an inventory form. Data. collected will be entered into a tlSlU),ese.
