BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
California Assembly Bill 1220 (AB1220) authorized the California
Integrated Waste Management Board to expend funds from the
Integrated Waste Management Account for the making of grants to
cities for local programs to help prevent the illegal disposal of
hazardous waste.
The grant monies will allow the City to expand current public
education efforts for the disposal of household hazardous waste and
target specific populations within the community, resulting in
decreased illegal disposal and dumping of hazardous waste and
thereby helping the City to comply with AB939, as well as with the
requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
permit.
Staff is recommending the services of ORICOM, a consulting firm
located in Anaheim and Los Angeles, to develop and submit a grant
application on behalf of the City. ORICOM has previously
submitted two used oil recycling grant applications to the state
which were successful. Development and submittal of this grant
will be at no cost to the City. If the application is successful,
ORICOM will be responsible for development and management of the
City's Household Hazardous Waste Program. All program costs will
be paid from grant funds.
To proceed with the development of the grant application, the City
Council needs to approve Resolution No. 94-113, authorizing the
submittal of an application for State grant monies and an agreement
with ORICOM for program development and ~anagement is required.
