SUMMARY The City Council is being asked to consider adoption of a resolution approving the submittal of the City's application to the California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) for an Used Oil Recycling Block grant, and authorize the City Manager to execute any agreements, contracts, and requests for payments. BACKGROUND The City has been receiving Used Oil Recycling Block Grants since the program began in 1993. The main purpose of this grant program is to provide funding to local governments to establish used oil collection programs that encourage recycling or appropriate disposal of used oil. To be eligible, a local used oil collection program may include any activity(s) that the City believes will enhance recycling or the appropriate disposal of used oil within their jurisdiction. The main ways used oil is recycled are through the monthly Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection events on the second Friday, second Saturday, and third Saturday of each month, and at a state - certified used oil collection centers. A business applies to the CIWMB to become a certified collection center. The certified centers accept, at no charge, a maximum of 20 gallons of used lubricating oil from a person, per day. A certified center must offer a $0.04 per quart Used Oil Block Grant 2002- 2003.doc CC Meeting of April 3, 2002 Page 2 recycling incentive to "walk -in" clients, or accept "donations" of used oil. Reimbursement need not be given for oil changes done by the certified center. On a quarterly basis, the certified center invoices the CIWMB for the amount of incentive funding given to the public to receive reimbursement. The certification program also includes subsidies from the CIWMB to dispose of contaminated oil - up to $5,000 in disposal costs for one shipment per year. Currently, in Moorpark there are no certified used oil collection centers. It is anticipated that it will be necessary to use a large portion of the grant to provide storage and testing equipment to a local automotive business as an incentive to become a certified center. Grant funding will be based on a per capita basis. For next year, the City will be eligible for $14,623. It is the City's discretion to use the grant funds as deemed appropriate. The funds could be used to purchase equipment, contaminated oil disposal, overhead costs, staff time, public information, and promotional items. Historically the City has used the grants funds for a balanced mix of all the expense categories. Many public information activities and promotional item procurements are accomplished regionally by pooling grant funds with the other jurisdictions in the county. The grant application must contain an approved resolution from each City's governing body authorizing submittal of the application and identify the individual authorized to executive any agreements, contracts, and requests for payments.
