AB 2396, as amended, McCarty. Solid waste: annual reports.
The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989, which is administered by the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery, establishes an integrated waste management program. Existing law requires each state agency to submit an annual report to the department summarizing its progress in reducing solid waste that is due on or before May 1 of each year.
This bill would require each state agency to include in that annual report a summary of the state agency’s compliance with specified requirements relating to recycling commercial solid waste and organic waste.
begin insertThis bill would incorporate additional changes in Section 42926 of the Public Resources Code proposed by AB 2812 that would become operative only if AB 2812 and this bill are both chaptered and become effective on or before January 1, 2017, and this bill is chaptered last.
