Figure 3 (continued) <br /> Water <br /> - Adopt water-efficient landscaping ordinances (see CALGreen Divisions 4_3 and <br /> 5.3), including the rise of compost and mulch, to reduce water use and <br /> encourage use of greywater for landscaping: when available <br /> - Develop a plan requiring water recycling, and greywater and rain water reuse <br /> and provide funding for incentives and other program delivery mechanisms if <br /> feasible <br /> - Develop a plan to quantify and reduce GHG emissions at publicly operated <br /> treatment works (ROTS, s) <br /> - Develop a residential water efficiency auditing program <br /> - Create an incentive program to promote efficient water use projects <br /> - Eliminate Homeowner Association requirements for lawns and landscaping <br /> - 'A'ork %�Jth local water agencies to evaluate the impact of proposed new <br /> developments and land use plans cn ground,,-eater and long-term water supply <br /> aaa <br /> Short-Lived Climate Pollutants <br /> — Require bicgas generation at wastewater treatment plants and methane capture <br /> at landfill facilities <br /> — Require that air conditioning and refrigeration units in new construction (and at <br /> major renovation) rely on refrigerants with lever global warming potential (e.g., <br /> they use 02 or ammonia instead of hydrofluorocarbons) <br /> — Promote alternatives to open pile burning as disposal options forwoody biomass <br /> wastes <br /> - Support hazardous fuel reduction: defensible space clearing and forest friel <br /> reduction in rural forested areas with high tree mortality and unnaturally high fuel <br /> loads to reduce the size and severity of catastrophic wildfires .A hich reduces the <br /> release non-anthropogenic black carbon and methane <br /> — Adept use of lour global v.-arming potential ( VdP) alternative refrigerants <br /> aaa <br /> — Work with local utility and waste management agencies to adopt a curbside <br /> program for old refrigerators, air-conditioning units, and automobiles to ensure <br /> proper disposal of refrigerants <br /> — Adopt programs, ordinances; or regulations to reduce wood smoke from <br /> residents, commercial, and recreational activities <br /> — Require alternatives to wood heating such as heat pumps or gas heating devices <br /> in new developments, in appropriate climate zones, where infrastructure is <br /> available <br /> — Provide incentives to reduce wood smoke by changing out uncertified wood <br /> heating devices to gas. electric, or pellet devices <br /> - Implement organics v aste prevention, recycling. and -cod recovery programs <br />
