Title
Adopt City Council Resolution Authorizing Submittal of Notification of Intent to Comply with SB 1383 Regulations
Summary
Jurisdictions were required to implement the SB 1383 regulations starting January 1, 2022. As jurisdictions were preparing to implement the law, many local governments faced challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, Governor Newsom signed SB 619 (Laird, Chapter 508, Statutes of 2021) into law to support local governments as they design and implement successful organic waste recycling programs throughout the state. The law authorizes CalRecycle to waive civil penalties if a jurisdiction submits a Notification of Intent to Comply for some or all of the regulatory requirements and successfully implements a plan to correct their violations.
