AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Jennifer Mellon, Senior Management Analyst
DATE: April 23, 2009 (CC meeting of May 6, 2009)
SUBJECT: Consider SB 1016—Solid Waste Disposal Measurement Act: New
AB 939 Compliance Reporting Methodology
SUMMARY
Council is bein g asked to receive and file the. 2007 AB 939 solid waste diversion
compliance report(Attached). The entire reporting system has changed with the passage
of SB 1016 which will be explained in detail below.
BACKGROUND
Back in 1989, the Integrated Waste Management Act was passed which required
jurisdictions to report the tonnage of waste diverted from disposal in the landfill. It has
been the goal for many years to divert 50% of generated material from the landfill and
Moorpark has been successful in meeting this goal. In 2006, the City's reported diversion
rate was 56% and this rate has been maintained since the baseline disposal report was
generated in 2000.
Reporting diversion numbers is a tedious process which takes 18—24 months in which to
gather various diversion data and report. The purpose of SB 1016, which implements the
per capita disposal measurement system, is to make the process of goal measurement as
established with AB 939 reporting simpler, more timely, and more accurate. SB 1016
builds on AB 939 compliance requirements by implementing a simplified measure of
jurisdiction performance by changing to a disposal-based indicator, the per capita disposal
rate, which uses only two factors: a jurisdiction's population (or in cases of industrial
jurisdictions, employment) and its disposal as reported by disposal facilities.
DISCUSSION
The California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) has always focused on
jurisdictional program implementation and SB 1016 will assist with this process by shifting

emphasis on using calculated generation and estimated diversion to using actual annual
disposal numbers. The 50% diversion requirement still stands; it is just measured with a
different method.
In summary, instead of measuring diversion rates, the City will now measure pounds
disposed per person per day and the goal will be to annually reduce this number. Council
and Staff have become accustomed to the diversion number and comparing that diversion
number to other jurisdictions. Our diversion of 56% will no longer be used nor will our
jurisdiction be compared to other jurisdictions in terms of diversion. Each jurisdiction will
have a unique disposal rate of pounds/person/day (PPD) that is calculated per that
jurisdictions data. The Moorpark 50% per capita disposal target rate for 2007 has been
calculated at 6.0 PPD and the actual annual rate for 2007 has been reported at 4.2 PPD.
The goal, through recycling and source reduction programs is to lower PPD each year,

disposing of less means reduction of waste generated by residents, diversion of more
material,.or both.
