<br />Source CalRecycle 2013x, Calrecyde 2013b, CalRecyde 2013c, CalRecycle 2013d.
<br />Average daily disposal based on 300 operating days per year. The Bowerman and Olinda Alpha landfills are eadi open six days per week, Monday through Saturday,
<br />except certain holidays.
<br />Solid Waste Diversion
<br />There ace 39 solid waste diversion programs in Santa Ana, including composting, household hazardous waste,
<br />recycling, and special waste materials programs for materials such as tires, scrap metal, and
<br />concrete /asphalt /rubble (CalRecycle 2013e).
<br />Local jurisdictions in California ace required to divert at least 50 percent of solid waste generated within their
<br />jurisdictions from landfills under AB 939, the Integrated Waste Management Act (California Public Resources
<br />Code Sections 40000 et seq). One measure of compliance with AB 939 is actual disposal rates equal to or
<br />lower than target disposal rates. In 2011, the last year for which data ace available, target disposal rates in
<br />Santa Ana were 7.5 pounds per day (ppd) per resident and 16.9 ppd per employee; actual disposal rates were
<br />4.8 ppd per resident and 11.3 ppd per employee. Thus, disposal rates were consistent with AB 939.
<br />Regulatory Setting
<br />State
<br />AB 939 (Integrated Solid Waste Management Act of 1989; Public Resources Code 40050 et seq.) established
<br />an integrated waste - management system that focused on source reduction, recycling, composting, and land
<br />disposal of waste. AB 939 required every California city and county to divert 50 percent of its waste from
<br />landfills by the year 2000. Compliance with AB 939 is measured in part by comparing solid waste disposal
<br />rates for a jurisdiction with target disposal rates; actual rates at or below target rates are consistent with AB
<br />939. AB 939 also requires California counties to show 15 years disposal capacity for all jurisdictions within the
<br />county; or show a plan to transform or divert its waste.
<br />Assembly Bill 341 (2011) increases the statewide goal to increase waste diversion to 75 percent by 2020 and
<br />mandates commercial and multi -family recycling.
<br />5.14.1.5 ELECTRICITY
<br />Southern California Edison (SCE) provides electricity to the project area. Estimated existing electricity usage
<br />on the project site is about 30.7 million kilowatt -hours per year (kWh /yr), as shown below in Table 5.14 -6.
