be approved locally by the County and a majority of the cities
having a majority of the population. Taken together these
documents detail the various programs and facilities to be used by
local jurisdictions to meet the State mandated reductions in the
amount of waste disposed in landfills; the reductions in disposal
to be met by local jurisdictions is 25% by the year 1995 and 50% by
the year 2000.
Contra Costa County and the 18 cities within the county are the
first jurisdictions in the State to both submit our plans and be
given approvals by the California Integrated Waste Management
Board.
On December 7, 1993 the CIWMB's subcommittee on Local Planning
unanimously agreed to recommend to the full CIWMB approval of our
Countywide Integrated Waste Management Plan, Countywide Household
Hazardous Waste Plan, and Solid Waste Facilities Siting Element.
On December 15, 1993--tomorrow--the full CIWMB is expected to
concur with the subcommittee's recommendation for approval. These
plans are based upon the work of each jurisdiction and of the Local
AB 939 'Task Force which reviewed all the plans and assisted in the
preparation of the Countywide Plans.
The Countywide Plan emphasizes cooperative multi-jurisdictional
approaches in developing and implementing solid waste programs and
facilities in order to minimize overall costs and to assure reduced
costs for ratepayers.
Additionally, the County's own Source Reduction and Recycling
Element, Household Hazardous Waste Element, and Non Disposal
Facilities Siting Element are recommended for approval. The
recommended actions on the individual plans for the 18 cities are
attached for your information.
