SUBJECT: HAZARDOUS WASTE REDUCTION AND DISPOSAL FORUM
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Board of Supervisors join with the State Health
Department to sponsor a forum on alternative hazardous waste
management options.
That the Environmental Health Department and Community
Development Department be directed to plan this event along
with staff representatives from Supervisorial offices.
BACKGROUND:
Because treatment and reduction of hazardous waste is a
critical issue in Contra Costa County, due to the closure of
the IT facility in Martinez, and our large number of
hazardous material related industries, I contacted the State
Health Department and requested that they sponsor a forum on
alternative waste disposal options to existing hazardous
waste landfills.,'
The State Health Department has agreed to honor my request
and hold a workshop on hazardous waste management in Contra
Costa County sometime this spring.
