DRAFT – June 15, 2021 | Page 21 THE CITY OF PLEASANTON SB 1383 ACTION PLAN 2021 ─ 2025 3.2 Monitoring and Enforcement 3.2 Monitoring and Enforcement 3.2.1 Program Summary By January 1, 2022, jurisdictions must adopt ordinances and/or other enforceable policies and procedures, as well as develop a monitoring and enforcement program. The City’s enforcement obligations will need to be significantly expanded to include verification of SB 1383 compliance by generators, self-haulers (including back- haulers), franchise haulers, construction and demolition debris haulers, commercial edible food generators, food recovery organizations and services, and other entities. To establish a fully-compliant and comprehensive enforcement program, the City will need to amend its existing ordinances, policies, and procedures. Between January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2023, the City must provide education to non-compliant entities. The enforcement program will include issuance of NOVs, and assessment of penalties for non-compliant regulated entities. These provisions shall be actively enforced no later than January 1, 2024. The goal of the monitoring and enforcement programs will be to ensure that each residential and commercial generator subscribe to recyclables and organics collection services or similarly comply through self-hauling requirements. The City may grant exceptions for commercial entities and multi-family dwellings that have been granted waivers for conditions such as generation of de minimis volumes of material or physical space limitations. While three-container collection service is currently available, not all generators are receiving organic materials and recyclables collection service, as shown in Section 3.1.1, Figure 12. Most early enforcement efforts will be focused on ensuring single-family, multi-family, and commercial customers subscribe to service. The monitoring program is comprised of several activities required by SB 1383. The City must ensure that a desktop review is conducted of all commercial solid waste accounts generating two cubic yards of solid waste or more and all multi-family garbage accounts with five or more units. By imposing mandatory service of all three waste streams and providing the appropriate containers to all generators, the City will minimize the effort required to complete desktop compliance reviews. The monitoring regulations also mandate additional inspection of certain regulated entities, route reviews or waste evaluations, and monitoring for container contaminants for all generators. The SB 1383 enforcement program requires distribution of educational materials, and issuance of NOVs and penalties to non-compliant entities (see Section 3.2.2 below for further details on requirements).
