SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Authorizing Submittal of a Three Year
(2004 -2007) Used Oil Recycling Block Grant Application to
the California Integrated Waste Management Board
SUMMARY
The City Council is being asked to consider a resolution approving
the submittal of the City's annual application for a Used Oil Block
Grant to the state of California Integrated Waste Management Board.
DISCUSSION
The City began receiving Used Oil Recycling Block Grants when the
program began in 1993. The grants are administered by the California
Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB). 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. Recently the state allowed Used
Oil Block Grant funds to be spent on certain federally- mandated
National Pollutant Elimination System (NPDES) activities connected
to illegal disposal of motor oil.
The main way used oil is recycled is through the monthly Household
Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection events. Moorpark residents can
attend HHW events three times per month: on the second Friday; on
the Saturday following the second Friday; and on the third Saturday
of the month. The exception is December when HHW drop offs occur
only on the second Friday and the Saturday after it. Local business
can also become a state - certified used oil collection center by
applying to the CIWMB. The certified centers must 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
recycling incentive to the walk -in clients. Over the years, three

(3) auto - related businesses in Moorpark have become certified
collection centers only to quit the program because it interfered
with their regular business operations. It is staff's objective to
establish another local used oil collection center this year. Grant
funds may be used to purchase equipment for a certified center such
as holding tanks and tools to test for contamination.
The funding is distributed on a per capita basis. Moorpark is
entitled to receive $10,703.99 for Fiscal Year 2004 -2005. Not all of
the money has to be spent in the Fiscal Year for which the funds are
awarded. Typically, the City deposits the grant in its Solid Waste
AB 939 Fund (Fund 5001). The City must complete a funding request
form and adopt an appropriate authorizing resolution to receive the
funds.
The grant administrators at the CIWMB have the authority to
determine if grant funds can be used for a particular activity.
Approved uses include purchasing equipment, contaminated oil
disposal, overhead costs, staff time, public information,
promotional items, and now NPDES activity related to preventing
disposal of used motor oil into the environment.
Historically the City ha
balanced mix of all the
application must contain
governing body authorizing
the individual authorized
and requests for payments.
