A. WHEREAS, the State of California has enacted the Solid Waste Management Act of 1989 which
requires each City and County within the State to reduce the amount of solid waste disposed of by 25 % in 1995 and
50 % by 2000 through source reduction, recycling, and composting; and,
B. WHEREAS, the CITY adopted its Source Reduction and Recycling Element in March, 1992 in
which the CITY proposed to meet its diversion mandate by a variety of programs, one of which is the
implementation of a curbside residential program that collects and processes residential yard wastes, thereby
diverting these resources from landfill disposal and conserving natural resources; and,
C. WHEREAS, the CITY issued a Request for Proposal to identify green material processing options
that would place a significant emphasis on composting of yard trimmings, as well as other materials which have the
potential for composting within the residential waste stream; and,
D. WHEREAS, CONTRACTOR is competent, experienced and able to perform said services; and,
E. WHEREAS, CONTRACTOR has provided the greatest number of processing options to the CITY
which will allow the CITY to divert the maximum tonnage of material types, including green materials, vegetative
food waste and contaminated paper, through composting; and,
F. WHEREAS, such flexibility will allow the CITY to adapt quickly to changing market conditions
while maintaining the highest possible diversion in order to meet the State's diversion mandates;
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. WORK PLAN AND METHODOLOGY
I
Material Receiving
Scaled/LooQed
Upon arrival to the Bloomington facility, all trucks are weighted and a ticket is
generated. The ticket will serve as documentation and accompany the monthly
invoice.
I
Reiection
Upon entering the facility, the ticket is collected and preliminary inspection is made. If
the load is rejected, the ticket will be marked, and the truck will be directed to an
alternative site as determined by the City of San Bernardino. Rejection I~ udSt1U un
the load containing spilled oil or other hazardous liquids and contaminates in excess
of 15%.
Acceptance
Accepted loads will be directed to the green waste curb side location. The load is
dumped, hand inspected and cleaned of all contaminates. Once cleaned the green
material is placed in the pile for processing.
Contaminates
CBM currently recycles over 80 percent of all contaminates. Contaminates include
paper, metal, glass and rocks. CBM proposes the City of San Bernardino supply two
containers at NO CHARGE to CBM, and the City of San Bernardino is responsible
for the pick-up and disposal.
1) Trash roll-off container for all contaminates CBM is unable to recycle.
2) Three (3) yard container for all household hazardous waste.
Based on past experience, this approach is easier and more effective in managing
contaminates associated with curb-side programs. Secondly, it eliminates the
subjective process of rejecting loads. Thirdly, the containers serve as an effective tool
in tracking the level and cycle of contaminate level during the life of the program.
Based on these numbers, CBM and the City of San Bernardino can effectively
determine appropriate publiC awareness programs aimed at reducing the level of
contaminates. In the course of our current curb-side program, CBM has rejected one
(1) load.
Processing
Tiooed/Cleaned
Material is tipped and cleaned of all contaminates and placed in the appropriate
containers. Once the material is cleaned it is placed in the processing pile.
Processing
Material is ground or pre-screened to a size ready to be placed in the AG-Bag for
composting. The City of San Bernardino material is mixed with fines and chips of

wood in preparation for composting. CBM currently operates two (2) grinders to
ensure consistent production and system redundancy.
Active Comoosting
CBM utilizes a unique composting technology. AG-Bag is an in-vessel composting
method that speeds the composting process, eliminates health and safety issues and
protects ground water. CBM was the first site in California to use the AG-Bag
technology, and our facility serves as an on-going test site for ACBTI AG-Bag product
development. The composting process takes approximately 8-10 weeks. Once
complete, the compost is mature, stable and ready for market.
Screening
CBM operates a large trommel to screen the finished c.;OIl1pOS1. The compost is
removed from the AG-Bag and screened to produce two (2) products. The two primary
products are top dressing (CBM product 10.) and mulch. The oversized material not
extracted during this process is placed back into a new AG-Bag. The oversized
material breaks down over a three bag cycle and provides porosity inside the compost
for effective air circulation during the composting process. Oversized material on
average is 10% of each AG-Bag.
Marketing
Markets
Finished compost sales is an integral part of the closed loop approach CBM pioneered
just a few years ago. From the beginning, CBM has focused on markets first and
feedstocks second. This strategy is in stark contrast to most of CBM's competitors.
Because of this effort in the beginning., product demand has and continues to be
higher than CBM's supply. CBM serves three primary product markets. All products
are currently sold in bulk.
Top dressing/Planter mix
This premium product is sold to golf course, landscaping, residential, agricultural and
nursery markets. CBM top dressing product is currently in the California Certified
Organic Farmer (CCOF) acceptance process. CCOF's state wide program is expected
to raise demand an additional 25,000 yards annually.
Market demand for the top dressing product is high and CBM currently is unable to
produce enough to meet market demand. The top dressing/planter mix market is
based on hundreds of accounts developed over four years. The long term market for
top dressing/planter mix is expected to remain strong due to CBM's product quality
and competitive price. The back.up markets for top dressing are expanded
agricultural applications, Alternative Daily Cover (ADC) and bio-remediation.
Mulch
CBM sells mulch into the golf course, landscaping, residential, agricultural and nursery
markets. In addition, CBM donated over 2,000 yards of mulch for community projects
in 1994. The size and consistency of the mulch makes the product effective in weed
abatement and water conservation. The back-up markets for the mulch are Alternative

Daily Cover (ADC), and CAL TRANS. CBM product meets the draft specification of
mulch as determined by CAL TRANS.
Boiler fuel
All City of San Bernardino material will be composted. Based on experience, the curb- 1
side material does not meet boiler fuel specifications. Most energy plants require '
processors to segregate curb-side material from boiler fuel material. CBM is currently
under a long-term contract with an energy plant for the shipment of boiler fuel.

Site vector control program
CBM currently operates under a Conditional Use Permit (CUP # 91-00371W177-103
and LEA Compost permit per California Integrated Waste Management Board
requirements). CBM operates as per the CUP conditions and passed all annual
inspections for vectors. In addition, the AG-bag process is in-vessel and eliminates the
potential for and increase in fly count as well as vectors.
National Pollution Discharge Elimination Program (NPDES)
Based on review by the Regional Water Quality Board, CBM is in compliance. AG-Bag
in-vessel composting method eliminates ground water and run-off issues.
Fire orotection and prevention ; I
As per CUP, CBM on-site fire protection and prevention is in accordance with local fire
standards. In-vessel composting method diminishes the potential for fires.
Record keeoinQ & analysis
CBM documents all driven traffic by vehicle size and estimated tons. All loads are
inspected for contaminates. CBM routinely sends product samples to a local
laboratory for analysis. Analysis includes metal content, pesticides and nutrient
content.

4. PROJECT SCHEQU~e
Option 1 - Green material
CBM is prepared to begin accepting material immediately. The plant is currently
permitted and capable of accepting an annual volume of 18,000 tons of green
material.
Option 2 - Vegetable material
CBM proposes to integrate the vegetable material 120 days after the green material.
The 120 day period is necessary to standardize the process for both City of San
Bernardino personnel, as well as, CBM personnel. Secondly, CBM suggests the City
of San Bernardino, in conjunction with CBM initiate a public awareness campaign to
educate the residents of San Bernardino on the existing green material program and
the new vegetable feature.
Option 3 - Paper material
CBM proposes to integrate the paper element 120 days after the green and vegetable
material program. The 120 day period is necessary to standardize the process for
both City of San Bernardino personnel, as well as, CBM personnel. Secondly, CBM
suggests the City of San Bernardino, in conjunction with CBM, initiates a public
awareness campaign to educate the residents of San Bernardino on the existing
green material program and the new paper feature.
