DescriDtionl Finance: Council Notes: 75.0262 Agenda Item No I q CITY OF SAN BERNA(:PINO - REQUEST FCC) COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939), as amended, requires all Cities and Counties to prepare and implement Source Reduction and Recycling Elements (SRRE) and Household Hazardous Waste Elements (HHWE) of an Integrated Waste Management Plan. The necessary studies and analysis required to prepare the individual local agency plans for compliance with Assembly Bill 939 are best performed on a regional basis, In August of 1990, the cities of COLTON, FONTANA, GRAND TERRACE, HIGHLAND, LOMA LINDA, REDLANDS, RIALTO, SAN BERNARDINO, YUCAIPA, and the COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) as "The East Valley Coalition" for a period of two years to fund and obtain consulting services to study waste composition and management practices within the East Valley and develop SRRE and HHWE for each jurisdiction pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 40000 et. seq. The MOU further authorized the County of San Bernardino Department of Solid Waste Management to include a landfill fee surcharge of $1.00 per ton to accomplish these mandates of AB 939. On June 8, 1992, the Board of Supervisors of San Bernardino County, California reserved the balance of the East Valley Coalition AB 939 Waste Characterization Trust Fund and designated it for future AB 939 related studies and/or programs. On January II, 1993, roughly 15 months ago, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors authorized a Material Recovery Facility/Transfer Station/Composting Facility study by SCS Engineers for $85,968 to determine solid waste processing facility needs and report on siting possibilities for necessary projects, The City of San Bernardino has performed site feasibility comparisons and site assessments in conjunction with this study to prepare for a regional facility. The current unobligated balance for the East Valley Coalition AB 939 Waste Characterization Trust Fund is approximately $894,032. EVC members anticipated using the surplus for consultant studies to draft Non Disposal Facility Elements (NDFEs) and to revise the SRRE per new legislation. However, NDFEs were completed in-house by all EVC staff and the State has indicated a simple letter of addendum will suffice for SRRE revision. This leaves no foreseeable joint use of the surplus funding, The original intent of the AB 939 landfill surcharge was to fund SRREs and HHWEs and related projects. Costs were not known at the time the $1.00 per ton surcharge was established. The intended projects have been done using competitive pricing in consultant selection. The result is a sizable balance which should be redistributed to the agencies on a pro rata basis. >264 Ji J. o o RESOLUTION NO. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COHMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF S BERNARDINO, CALIFORNIA, REQUESTING DISTRIBUTION OF REMAINING EAS VALLEY AB93' WASTE CHARACTERIZATION TRUST FUNDS BY THE BOARD 0 SUPERVISORS OF SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, TO JURISDICTION INPUTTING FUNDS ON A PRO RATA BASIS.
