Approve additional/optional environmental program to include in the Solid Waste Services Request for Proposal Scope of Work. 3. Approve inclusion of Construction and Demolition Collection Services in the Solid Waste Services Request for Proposal Scope of Work. DISCUSSION Staff is seeking City Council approval of the City of Santa Ana Green Policy and inclusion of optional services to be included in the Solid Waste Services Request for Proposals Scope of Work. The draft Request for Proposals will return to City Council for approval in March 2019. On May 15, 2018, Council approved the contract with HF&H Consultants, LLC (HF&H), to provide solid waste consulting services and to assist the City in developing a "Green Policy" with input from City Council, the community, and staff. Ultimately, the policy will provide the basis of the Request for Proposals (RFP) for Solid Waste Services (SWS) Scope of Work (Scope). HF&H services also include a review of the City's Source Reduction and Recycling Element, Household Hazardous Waste Element, Non -Disposal Facilities Element, and applicable laws related to solid waste, including the City's Integrated Waste Management Ordinance and Municipal Code. The consultant will also assist the City with the SWS RFP process, including contract negotiation and finalization. HF&H and City staff have met with members of City Council and conducted community surveys throughout 2018. They have also made presentations at five town hall meetings held in various 65A-1 Adopt City of Santa Ana Green Policy and Provide Direction on Additional/Optional Components of Solid Waste Services Request for Proposal October 16, 2018 Page 2 neighborhoods, including the Santa Ana Communication Linkage Forum (Com -Link), the Chamber of Commerce, and through online surveys in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese (Exhibit 1). Staff surveyed 34 Orange County Jurisdictions and the proposal is in line with regional trends. Through this work, the City of Santa Ana Green Policy (Green Policy) has been developed (Exhibit 2). The core goals of the Green Policy are to maintain compliance with State mandates, maintain low rates for residents and businesses, and implement additional preen programs as financially feasible. Additionally, the feedback from City Council will be included in the Request for Proposals for SWS that will be presented for Council approval in March 2019. Green Policy Adoption The City of Santa Ana has a long history of implementing environmentally focused programs without an established green policy. At Council's request, a green policy has been developed that captures the vision of future environmental efforts in the City of Santa Ana. The adopted Green Policy will be used as the basis for refining the SWS RFP Scope and implementing future solid waste environmental programs. Staff recommends adopting the Green Policy, as drafted, to maintain the City's compliance with state mandates, maintain low/reasonable rates for residents and businesses, and implement additional green programs as financially feasible. Green policy components include the following: A. Existing Programs That Will Be Included In the New Solid Waste Agreement The programs listed below have historically been provided by the City and/or the solid waste hauler, and will be included in the new SWS RFP Scope. 1. City operations solid waste and recycling collection. 2. Solid waste and recycling collection at City -sponsored events. 3. Neighborhood cleanups. 4. Parkway cleanups after garage sale weekends. 5. Alley cleanup — to be increased from two times per month to four times per month. 6. Single-family residents are provided refuse, recycling and green waste service. 7. Businesses and multi -family complexes are offered recycling service. 8. Holiday greenery is collected from residential properties and diverted from landfilling. 9. Sharps Safe Disposal Program. 10. Door -to -Door Universal Waste Collection — Collection of universal waste offered to residents at no additional charge. Universal waste includes fluorescent tubes, light bulbs, batteries, mercury containing devices, televisions and other electronic equipment, and other universal waste as defined by CalRecycle. B. Environmental Programs Required By State Regulations Will Be Included In the New Solid Waste Agreement 1. Residential food waste program — SB 1383 requires jurisdictions to offer an organics recycling program, including food waste, to all generators by January 1, 2022. 65A-2 Adopt City of Santa Ana Green Policy and Provide Direction on Additional/Optional Components of Solid Waste Services Request for Proposal October 16, 2018 Page 3 2. Organics waste collection and recycling from commercial generators that currently meet the thresholds of AB 1826, and in January 1, 2022 from all generators of organics. 3. Food donation/rescue — Hauler to provide information and/or coordinate with food rescue organizations. 4. AB 341 compliant commercial and multi -family recycling which may include a source - separated program, and/or processing of mixed commercial/multi-family for customers that do not participate in the source -separated recycling program. C. Suite of Additional/Optional Environmental Programs to Be Considered in the New Solid Waste Agreement, if Financially Feasible 1. Household hazardous waste — Hauler to provide an annual drop-off event at no additional charge. 2. Medication disposal program — Selected hauler will be required to promote local medication take -back programs. 3. Document shredding events — Provide one time per year. 4. Compost give-away events — Provide one time per year. 5. Multi -family bulky item collection. 6. Enhanced cleanup of abandoned items in alleys. 7. Provide solid waste containers for encampment cleanups. 8. Recycling block party — Recognize a residential neighborhood that consistently puts out their recycling containers (set out) and has minimal contamination of recyclable materials by hosting a block party. 9. Environmental ambassador program — Recognize businesses and restaurants that have implemented source -reduction, reuse, recycling, and other environmental programs at City Council meetings and coordinate presentations with Chamber of Commerce and/or other community meetings. Construction and Demolition Collection Services The City currently has separate, exclusive agreements for collection and handling of construction and demolition debris generated in the City of Santa Ana, and a Host Fee Agreement to accept construction and demolition debris generated in the City of Santa Ana. These agreements are set to expire on June 30, 2020, as is the solid waste services agreement. Staff recommends including Construction and Demolition Collection Services with the RFP for SWS. Though there has been a preference for separate C&D Collection Services agreements in the past, there are advantages to including C&D in the SWS Agreement, such as clearly defining a single C&D collection services provider, while still allowing self -haul by generators and contractors; eliminating contract infringement; and streamlining and simplifying contract administration and state reporting. 65A-3 Adopt City of Santa Ana Green Policy and Provide Direction on Additional/Optional Components of Solid Waste Services Request for Proposal October 16, 2018 Page 4 STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of these items support the City's efforts to meet Goal #4 — City Financial Stability, Objective #1 (maintain a stable, efficient and transparent financial environment). ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. However, increased recycling activity will divert materials from the landfill, thus extending the life of the landfill system and recovering valuable recyclable resources. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. 141 Fuad S.eiss, PE, PLS Executiv Director Public rks Agency FS/MLM/CK Exhibits: 1. Solid Waste Contract Community Surveys 2.

In 2015 the City of Santa Ana (City) established a Climate Action Plan to develop and implement strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from City operations and the community. Landfilling of solid waste, improper disposal of hazardous waste, and the manufacturing of products contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. The City has implemented many programs and policies to reduce the amount of waste landfilled and encourage source -reduction and recycling activities. This Green Policy documents activities and programs currently in place through the City's operations and facilities and the community, describes programs included in the current solid waste agreement, identifies programs required by state regulation, and identifies potential new programs for consideration.

Summarized below are regulations that specifically address reducing the amount of material being disposed at landfills. California adopted its first statewide, general recycling program in 1989, The California Integrated Waste Management Act (AB 939), which required jurisdictions to achieve 25 percent diversion of all solid waste from landfills by January 1, 1995, and 50 percent diversion by January 1, 2000. In preparation for the 2000 deadline, jurisdictions dramatically increased the number of diversion programs. Diversion programs include local effort for source reduction, reuse, recycling, and composting. In 2011, Assembly Bill 341 (AB 341) was signed into law requiring jurisdictions to implement commercial recycling programs, and requiring businesses that generate four or more cubic yards of solid waste, and multi -family complexes of 5 or more units to have a recycling program. Generators may comply by enrolling in a program offered by a jurisdiction, self -recycling, or onsite reuse. This bill also requires CalRecycle to establish a new statewide goal of 75 percent recycling, including source reduction, recycling, and composting, by 2020. This recycling paradigm differs from AB 939 in several significant ways. First, AB 341 establishes a statewide policy goal, rather than a jurisdictional mandate. This places the onus for achieving the goal on the state, rather than on the cities and counties that directly regulate waste disposal and recycling. Under the law, jurisdictions are not required to meet the new policy's numerical diversion goals, but jurisdictions are responsible for implementing required programs. In September 2014, Governor Brown signed Assembly Bill 1594, mandating that as of January 1, 2020, the use of green material as alternative daily cover (ADC) will no longer constitute diversion through Draft, October 9, 2018 65A-16 Landfill Mandatory alternative commenrial daily cover organics no longer recycling; goal considered of 5. diversion in reduction in 2020 organics disposal by 2020 ... —'ra. _. .

Under the law, jurisdictions are not required to meet the new policy's numerical diversion goals, but jurisdictions are responsible for implementing required programs. In September 2014, Governor Brown signed Assembly Bill 1594, mandating that as of January 1, 2020, the use of green material as alternative daily cover (ADC) will no longer constitute diversion through Draft, October 9, 2018 65A-16 CITY OF SANTA ANA Green Policy recycling and will instead be considered disposal in terms of measuring a jurisdiction's annual per capita disposal rate, thereby requiring that jurisdictions find alternative means of diversion such as composting, or anaerobic digestion of the material. In October 2014 Governor Brown signed Assembly Bill 1826, requiring local jurisdictions across the state to implement an organic waste recycling program to divert organic waste generated by businesses, including multi -family residential dwellings that consist of five or more units (please note, however, that multi -family dwellings are not required to have a food waste diversion program). This law also requires businesses to recycle their organic waste on and after April 1, 2016, depending on the amount of waste they generate per week. This law phases in the mandatory recycling of commercial organics over time, in particular, the minimum threshold of organic waste generation by businesses decreases over time, which means an increasingly greater proportion of the commercial sector will be required to comply. Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383), was signed in September 2016, and establishes methane emissions reduction targets in a statewide effort to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants in various sectors of California's economy. As it pertains to jurisdictions and the reduction of materials landfilled, SB 1383 establishes targets to achieve a 50 percent reduction in the level of the statewide disposal of organic waste from the 2014 level by 2020 and a 75 percent reduction by 2025. In order to meet these goals, all organics generators, including residents, will need to divert organics from landfilling either through a program offered by a jurisdiction through a franchise agreement, or by self -hauling. The law grants CalRecycle the regulatory authority required to achieve the organic waste disposal reduction targets and establishes an additional target that not less than 20 percent of currently disposed edible food is recovered for human consumption by 2025. SOLID WASTE BEST PRACTICES HIERARCHY The solid waste best practices hierarchy is a tool used in the evaluation of policies, programs, and practices that reduce the amount of waste disposed at landfills. By utilizing the hierarchy, users are able to maximize the benefit from materials, minimize the amount of waste, prevent greenhouse gas emissions, save energy, and conserve resources. The hierarchy indicates an order of preference for action to reduce and manage waste. The four -tier solid waste management hierarchy illustrated below ranks the most preferable ways to address solid waste. Source reduction or waste prevention is the best approach (tier one), followed by reuse of materials (tier 2), recycling, including composting, (tier 3), and disposal/landfilling (tier 4). Draft, October 9, 2018 Reuse Recycling 65A-17 CITY OF SANTA ANA Green Policy Definitions: Source Reduction— Reducing the need to manufacture new products by purchasing durable, long-lasting goods, examples are reusable grocery bags, coffee mugs, double -sided copying. Reuse - Using an object or material again, either for its original purpose or for a similar purpose, without significantly altering the physical form of the object or material, examples are repurposing empty glass jars for storing food in the panty, donating gently used clothing to charitable organizations, repairing appliances and furniture rather than buying new. Recycling - Using waste as material to manufacture a new product. Recycling involves altering the physical form of an object or material and making a new object from the altered material. Disposal - The disposition of solid waste at a landfill. Materials disposed should only be the residue left after all recyclable material (including organics) has been removed and processed, and does not include hazardous waste and other materials banned from landfilling. III. CURRENT CITY OF SANTA ANA PROGRAMS, PRACTICES AND POLICIES The programs, practices, and policies are categorized in accordance with CalRecycle in the areas of source -reduction, reuse, and recycling. City Operations and Facilities Source Reduction: • Environmentally Preferable Purchasing Policy—The City's purchasing policy includes requirements to purchase recycled -content products wherever feasible. • City crews grasscycle at City parks and facilities by leaving clippings on the lawn when mowing.
