Compliance Tier Total Population Sample Size Needed for 95% Confidence with Cl of 10 <br />1 <br />66 <br />39 <br />2 <br />291 <br />72 <br />3 <br />310 <br />74 <br />4 <br />615 <br />83 <br />Total <br />1282 <br />268 <br />Prior to the service analysis, EcoNomics staff will cross-reference each generators' service <br />levels from Waste Management's customer listing. Generators that do not have an <br />individual account will not be included in the service analysis. As each generator's service <br />information is calculated, the data will be aggregated into a roll -up work sheet so data for <br />all generators can be analyzed to make conclusions about the projected service levels for <br />individual generators and for the entire commercial sector. <br />Task 1C: Analyze aggregated data <br />As a next step, EcoNomics will analyze the aggregated data to determine the average <br />organics service levels per generator and per compliance tier as well as the average MSW <br />service reductions. Using this data, EcoNomics will determine the hauler's total cost of <br />providing organics service assuming various participation levels as well as the revenue <br />lost from customer's 'right -sizing' their MSW service. These two cost components will <br />provide the City with a total cost of AB 1826 compliance that can be communicated to <br />proposers during the RFP process or used to check proposers' cost assumptions during <br />the evaluation process. <br />Task 1D: Calculate Estimated Outreach Hours Needed and Determine Cost <br />A key factor that is rarely factored into the cost of organics recycling programs is the cost <br />of outreach required to implement and maintain organics programs. Each organics <br />program can take between 10 -25 hours of staff time to implement. EcoNomics will <br />include the projected outreach costs for implementing organics programs and make <br />recommendations for how to provide adequate staffing levels. <br />Task 2: Assistance with Incorporating State -Mandated Diversion Programs into RFP Evaluation <br />Process <br />Upon engagement, EcoNomics will distill complicated legislative concepts and directives into <br />clearly understood evaluation criteria metrics. EcoNomics will use its on -the -ground knowledge <br />of working within the City to assess feasibility of proposed diversion programs provided by <br />2 <br />
