Santa Monica, California
TO: Mayor and eity Council
FROM: City Staff
SUBJECT: Recommendation to Adopt a Resolution Approving the
Proposed Membership Profile of the Los Angeles county
Integrated Waste Management Task Force
Introduction
This report requests that city Council adopt a resolution
approving the Los Angeles County Board of supervisors designation
of the Los Angeles County Solid Waste Management Committee to
serve as the County's Integrated Solid Waste Management Task
Force as required by AB939, the ealifornia Integrated Waste
Management Act of 1989.
Background
Assembly Bill 939 enacts a comprehensive reorganization of the
state's solid waste management planning process and changes the
focus from "solid waste management II to II integrated waste
management II .
The new planning process establishes a hierarchy
for the management of solid waste, requiring each jurisdiction to
divert through source reduction, recycling and composting 25
percent of the solid waste from landfills or incineration by 1995
and 50 percent by 2000. Each city in a county, and the county
for any unincorporated areas, must prepare, adopt, and implement
a Source Reduction and Recycling (SR&R) Element which becomes
part of the County Integrated Waste Management Plan (CoIWMP).
The CoIWMP, which replaces the County Solid Waste Management Plan
M~~U
- 1 -
.
.
(CoSWMP), must be prepared by each county and will include a
eounty-wide siting Element.
The deadline for preparation and
adoption of the SR&R is January 1, 1991, for the counties, and
July 1, 1991, for the cities.
By March I, 1990 and every five years thereafter, each county in
the state must convene a county-wide task force to assist and
coordinate development of the County Integrated Waste Management
Plan, individual city and county Source Reduction and Recycling
Elements, and the eounty-wide Siting Element.
The Board of
Supervisors and a majority of cities within the county which
contain a majority of the county's population must determine task
force membership.
The Los Angeles eounty Board of supervisors has designated the
current Los Angeles County Solid Waste Management Committee to
serve as the County · s Integrated Waste Management Task Force,
pending approval by a majority of cities within the eounty. The
membership profile of the proposed task force is as follows:
