The California Integrated Waste Management Board has proposed to
us and the cities of Bell, Bell Gardens, Commerce, Cudahy,
Huntington Park, and South Gate, the opportunity to apply for a
Used Oil Opportunity Grant which is available in amounts up to
$200,000.
The Board is seeking a "lead city" to manage the grant and the
other cities are not interested in managing this project.
Acting as the "lead city" would give us priority to funds.
This has been reviewed by the Director of Environmental Health,
and it is hereby recommended that authority be given for the
City Administrator to submit a letter of interest to the
California Integrated Waste Management Board, which will allow
the City of Vernon to initiate the application process.

Date: 08/26/99
Re: Regional Used Oil Opportunity Grant
A proposal has been forwarded to us for a group of cities to apply for a Used Oil Opportunity Grant from the
California Integrated Waste Management Board. Stephen Groner, an environmental consultant, developed a
rough outline of the proposal and has received initial interest from the cities of Bell, Bell Gardens, Commerce,
Cudahy, Huntington Paris, South Gate and Vernon. The subject grant is available in amounts up to $200,000.
Mr. Groner is requesting a lead city commit to managing the grant and has indicated that the proposed used oil
program would focus on the lead city's needs first. According to Mr. Groner, the lead city would be responsible
for invoicing the State for payments under the grant. He estimates that the lead city would be responsible for
10-15 hours of grant management work each quarter. City costs for this work would be reimbursable from the
State.
discussed my concern with Mr. Groner regarding Vernon's uniqueness in comparison to the other cities and
the need for those Vernon's businesses which are small quantity generators of used oil to receive assistance
in properly disposing waste oil. Because the other cities are not interested in assuming responsibility for
administration of the grant, Mr. Groner stated that the proposal can be modified to address primarily small
quantity generator activities.
I am recommending that the City consider joining with the other cities in applying for this grant for the following
reasons:
• Our staff has found that small quantity generators of used oil have a critical need for assistance in
managing and disposing used oil.
• Incidents of used oil abandonment on City streets and right-of-ways continues to be a problem.
• A regional used oil outreach program would be beneficial.
• Because most of the activities will be conducted by the consultant, there appears to be only minor
impact to City staff time and services.
Attached is a copy of the draft proposal. Mr. Groner is also requesting a letter of interest to initiate the
application process. A City Council resolution would be needed in October.
Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to discuss this proposal further.

The Department of Environmental Health had previously requested
to prepare a State Grant Application for Household Hazardous
Waste/Used Oil Program Funding, which was subsequently approved
by this Council on September 7, 1999.
The application was submitted to the California Integrated Waste
Management Board (CIWMB) on November 1, 1999 for the amount of
$78,418. In addition, CIWMB also requires a City Council
Resolution to be adopted and forwarded to the State.
This has been reviewed by the Director of Environmental Health
and City Attorney, and it is hereby recommended that City
Council adopt and approve a Resolution authorizing the execution
and submittal of a regional application to the CIWMB for a
Household Hazardous Waste Grant.

Re: State Grant Application for Household Hazardous Waste/Used Oil Program Funding
On September 7, 1999, the City Council authorized the preparation of the subject grant
application. 1n order to meet the State deadline of November 1, 1999, the grant application
for $78,418 was prepared and sent to the California Integrated Waste Management Board
(copy attached). If we receive the grant, the monies will be used to assist small businesses
in Vernon and surrounding areas to properly dispose of hazardous wastes including used
oil. We are confident this business assistance program will reduce the incidents where
hazardous wastes are abandoned on public and private property by making available
convenient and reasonable hazardous waste disposal services.
The Waste Board also requires a city council resolution to be adopted and forwarded to the
State. I am attaching a copy of the application and a sample resolution. A copy of the
package is also be forwarded to the City Attorney for review. To comply with State time
lines, the resolution should be adopted by the end of November.
Please let me know if additional information is needed.

Re: GRANT APPLICATION FOR A SMALL QUANTITY GENERATOR HAZARDOUS WASTE
PROGRAM
With City Council approval in September, we are continuing the process of preparing the subject
application for a State Grant.
Attached is the cover page of an application for a $78,148 grant from the California Integrated Waste
Management Board to establish a business assistance program. The program will accommodate small
quantity generators of hazardous waste. The main goals of the program will be to:
o Contact small quantity generators to inform them of the potential environmental
hazards and legal liabilities associated with unlawful disposal of hazardous materials.
u Provide a collection site where small quantity generators can economically dispose of
minor amounts of hazardous wastes.
While the City of Vernon will act as the lead agency for the program and conduit for the grant monies,
other communities (the cities of Bell, Bell Gardens, Cudahy, Huntington Park, and South Gate) will
also be participating in the program.
An environmental consultant, Steven Groner, will provide most of the outreach aspects of the
program and will be arranging for intermittant waste collection days at various sites within the
involved cities. He will also be attempting to site a permanent location where small generators in the
involved cities can take their wastes.
To initiate this application, please sign at the indicated location completely and return the cover page
to me by Thursday, October 28,1999. The application must be processed and submitted to the State
no later than November 1, 1999.
If you have any questions or require further information, please contact us.

PROPOSAL NARRATIVE
Introduction
The cities of Vernon, Bell, Cudahy, Huntington Park, and South Gate are small underserved
cities which have a large number of small lower income entrepreneurial businesses that only
peripherally work with hazardous waste as a part of their business. However, because of their
tighter budgets and small staffs many of these businesses are unfamiliar with hazardous waste
regulations. In turn these businesses have a difficult time properly disposing of their hazardous
waste.
This project proposes to use the existing household hazardous waste infrastructure, to expand its
services to provide a convenient and economical disposal opportunity for the Conditionally
Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) businesses in the area.
The priorities of the proposal funding will be the following:
■ Hazardous Waste Collection Operations
■ Public Education and Event Publicity
These two funding areas will enable us to develop a comprehensive CESQG program that not
only collects waste, but also prevents pollution.
Section 1: Need
The lead agency in the proposal is the City of Vernon that has various unique features that create
a critical need for a CESQG program, which arguably is even more important than a standard
household hazardous waste program for the area.
The City of Vernon is primarily a city of businesses. The City of Vernon has approximately 30
households totaling fewer than 100 residents. This population however is dwarfed compared to
the daytime population of approximately 40,000 that come to the City to work in the
approximately 1,200 businesses, which cover the City.
In the regional area there are 4076 businesses, 76% of which have less than 20 employees, and
62% have less than 10 employees (based on U.S. Census data see Appendix H: Regional Data
and Area Map).
3
These small businesses, unlike some of the larger businesses, operate under tight budgets with
limited staffing. Many of these businesses do not deal with hazardous waste regularly and only
generate small quantities and thus, are not familiar with the regulations.
In addition, these businesses find it expensive to properly dispose of these small quantities of
waste. This happens because the hazardous waste contractors are not geared for handling these
small jobs. For example, if a business wanted to dispose of left over fuels; according to several
hazardous waste contractors, it could cost several hundreds of dollars just to complete the paper
work, have staff and equipment drive to the site, etc. not including the cost for disposal. Where
as the cost of disposal for the fuels would usually be between $2-5 per gallon. Estimating the
cost if the business were to have the legal limit of 27 gallons of fuel it would cost them
approximately $54-135 for disposal, plus an additional $100-300 for the indirect costs.
These two factors, costs and regulatory understanding, create obstacles for the small businesses
regarding the proper handling and disposal of hazardous waste. These obstacles result in
businesses not properly managing their hazardous waste and either intentionally or unknowingly
illegally dumping their waste into the community.
The illegal dumping reports and investigations from both the City of Los Angeles and the County
of Los Angeles found one of the highest densities of illegal dumping in this corridor area. 89
cases were reported and investigated which consisted of various types of waste disposed illegally
from old fuels to paint to miscellaneous industrial liquids. While it is not always clear the source
of the waste, most cases found evidence that the waste was generated from a business.
The HHW Elements for the cities involved all emphasize working within the Countywide HHW
program and augmenting the program locally as opposed to creating an individual jurisdictional
program. This proposal fosters this goal by working with the City of Los Angeles' program
(which is a part of the Countywide program) and augmenting their effort by expanding the
program locally as opposed to developing the program from scratch.
Presently the Countywide program conducts a temporary collection event in each city
approximately once every two years. The County, which operates the temporary events outside
of the City of Los Angeles, does not operate a CESQG program. The City of Los Angeles does
have a small CESQG program that has recently been developed and is open to all County
businesses that qualify. These events however all take place within the City of Los Angeles and
the vast majority of them are not near the targeted area. The proposal will coordinate with the
City of Los Angeles to broaden this program to serve the adjacent communities as a part of the
Countywide program.
Section 2: Objectives
The proposed grant's purpose is to provide a convenient and cost-effective opportunity for
exempt small businesses to properly dispose of their hazardous waste. The goals of the program
are the following:
4
■ Develop a self sustaining CESQG program targeted to the businesses in the regional area
■ Reduce illegal dumping and abandoned waste from businesses
The objectives are the following:
■ Conduct four CESQG collection events that will serve the businesses in the target area
■ Increase proper disposal of hazardous waste by CESQG businesses in the targeted area
through participation at events
■ Increase of the awareness of CESQG businesses of the availability of this service
■ Increase of the awareness of CESQG businesses of their responsibility to manage their
hazardous waste
The program is to conduct an extensive outreach program to area businesses, which will be
centered around conducting four CESQG collection events in the area. The first event is targeted
for July or August of 2000, with events continuing every 4 to 6 months.
The outreach will consist of direct mail to businesses that fit a profile for potential small
quantity generator status and advertisements in chamber of commerce and trade association
publications. We will aim to reach 80% of the relevant SIC codes (based on US Census Bureau
data) for businesses with less than 10 employees and 75% of businesses through a combination
of all the chamber and trade publications.
Using the City of Los Angeles' program as a benchmark, we look to double the participation that
they are getting on average at their events — presently they average approximately 12-15
participants. Our objective will be a minimum of 30 participants per event.
The City of Vernon in administering this contract has included a timeline to accomplish the
stated goals and objectives within the term of the grant (see Appendix A: Work Statement). The
City of Vernon will be coordinating with the City of Los Angeles thus not having to create the
program from scratch and will work with a I1HW consultant and the City of Los Angeles' HHW
collection/disposal contractor to complete the work. The proposal has been developed with a
conservative timeline to allow for any delays without disrupting the overall timeframe for
completion.
Section 3: Methodology
To be as cost effective as possible the program will use the existing infrastructure of the City of
Los Angeles' household hazardous waste and CESQG program to serve this area as opposed to
developing its own stand alone program.
By coordinating a new program through an existing program we will be able to save startup and
development costs and focus the grant funding on getting businesses to participate. Presently, the
City of Los Angeles has a small CESQG program that is operated in conjunction with their
Hazmobile program within the boundaries of the City of Los Angeles. Their program conducts
5
approximately 12 events a year throughout the City of Los Angeles, however only one is in the
general vacinity of our regional group of cities.
The program proposes to have four CESQG events in our regional area and publicize four more
events that the City of Los Angeles will be holding to the businesses. Over a two-year period this
should give the businesses an infrastructure to develop a habit of properly handling their
hazardous waste. In addition, a successful implementation will allow the program to continue
with the City of Los Angeles and their development/operation of a permanent facility near the
targeted area.
Tasks
Initial startup costs are always significant in proportion to the ongoing administrative costs.
However we will be eliminating most of these costs by working with the City of Los Angeles'
program as opposed to creating our own program from scratch. Our only startup costs will be to
coordinate with the City of Los Angeles and to research potential businesses to target.
Our coordination with the City of Los Angeles will entail developing a schedule of CESQG
events in which we will work around their existing schedule, resolve any liability issues
concerning the program, and develop a plan dividing out areas of responsibility (see Appendix
A: Work Statement).
For our initial outreach, arguably our most important task, we will need to research eligible
businesses, meet and coordinate with local trade groups and chambers of commerce, develop
outreach material, and lastly distribute the materials through targeted channels. These tasks will
be our most important as far as long term viability of the program and motivating a critical mass
of businesses to participate (see Appendix A: Work Statement).
Once we achieve a critical mass of businesses we will be able to spread the administrative and
operations costs among the participants (i.e., hazardous waste collection staffing, on -going
coordination costs, etc.) without significantly affecting the rate for disposing of the hazardous
waste. By reaching this level and having the businesses pay for their hazardous waste disposal
cost the program will be able to reach financial sustainability.
Program Sustainability
There are two important cost factors that the grant will help resolve to make the program self-
sustaining.
■ Initial coordination and initial publicity costs - The grant will allow us to get the program
started without having to pass on these costs to the CESQG businesses. Once the program is
running, these costs will not be a factor.
■ Administrative costs and ongoing publicity - The grant will help us absorb these costs while
we start the program and have a lower participation. As the program increases in
participation these costs can be absorbed into the fees the businesses pay for waste disposal,
since the fees will be spread out over a larger number of businesses.
0
Performing Tasks
The City of Vernon is working with Stephen Groner (independent contractor) who will be
developing and implementing the program. Stephen Groner has previously managed the Los
Angeles County's Household Hazardous Waste Collection and Outreach program, one of the
largest programs in the country.
The contractor will be responsible for coordinating the events and initial activities with the City
of Los Angeles. With these activities the contractor will be putting together progress reports and
maintaining the project schedule/budget with oversight by the City of Vernon
The contractor will also be in charge of publicizing the events and educating the businesses on
the issues involved. In conducting the educational outreach the contractor will work with the
regional cities and their respective chambers of commerce and local trade associations to
coordinate outreach and develop reinforcing messages. The contractor will work with an
advertising agency/graphic artist, in developing and distributing the informational material.
For the collection of the hazardous waste the City of Los Angeles' hazardous waste contractor
(Phillips Environmental and/or MSE) will perform the tasks. The contractor will be responsible
for the staffing, collection of waste, prepricing of waste, making appointments, and disposing of
all waste. Both of these contractors have extensive household hazardous waste experience,
contracting with programs throughout the State.
By using the City of Los Angeles' existing contract we will be able to get a better price than if
we were to establish our own contract with a hazardous waste contractor. This is based on the
relative volumes (hence discounts) the City of Los Angeles' contract would have versus how
much volume we would generate.
Challenges
One of the greatest challenges we will have is trying to reach the businesses that do not belong to
the various network groups (i.e., chambers of commerce and trade associations). Addressing this
challenge will be critical since these are the businesses that are most likely to illegally dispose of
their waste.
To address this concern we will prioritize the business types that will most likely not be in an
established network and focus additional research on locating and outreaching to those
businesses. For example many small printing businesses may fall into the CESQG category but
are likely to be in a trade association like the Printing Industry Association of Southern
California or the local chamber of commerce. Where as, silk screening businesses also fit into
the CESQG category, but are unlikely to be in a trade association or part of the local chamber of
commerce.
To reach these businesses we will try several approaches so that we have a better chance of one
of them reaching the intended target. For example: use business directories (yellow pages,
7
business CD-ROM lists, etc.) to pick out businesses from key target sectors within the
geographic area, review business license records within the cities to determine potential targets,
review Census data on geographic business participation by SIC codes.
Funding after the Grant Term
The CESQG program is based on the businesses paying for the disposal costs of the waste
generated. In the long run these costs will also be able to cover indirect costs of the program, if
enough businesses participate to spread out these costs. In addition, if this program is successful
at attracting CESQG businesses at participating we will continue to coordinate the program with
the City of Los Angeles and use the regional permanent facility's infrastructure to host the
program. (Note the permanent facility will be part of the Countywide Household Hazardous
Waste Program that is funded by the City of Los Angeles and County of Los Angeles and a
Seventh Cycle HHW Grant was awarded to construct this facility.)
Without obtaining the HHW Grant seed money it would be very difficult to over come the initial
cost obstacles to make the program inexpensive enough to entice businesses to initially
participate. In addition, the funds would not be available to conduct a broad enough outreach
program to get the program running and reach the necessary critical mass to make the program
self sustaining.
Targeting Outreach
The public education outreach to the CESQG businesses will need to be targeted both in content
and in distribution.
We proposed targeting our message through emphasizing three key points:
■ Using the program is cost-effective
■ Using the program reduces long term liability
■ Using the program ensures proper disposal and avoids worries about regulatory scrutiny and
financial penalties of improper disposal
These three key points we feel are the most important issues that will motivate businesses to
participate - as opposed to stressing environmental pollution, health, or community responsibility
which are most often used in publicizing household hazardous waste events. The three issues
selected are more central to the thinking of businesses (especially smaller businesses) and would
be better able to motivate the businesses to participate in the program.
For the distribution of our outreach we would use the following:
■ Direct mail to the businesses
■ Fax outs through trade associations and chambers of commerce to lists of businesses
■ Small spaced ads in local trade/business newsletters
Again these three distribution channels we feel will be most effective in reaching our target
businesses. The standard method of reaching participants for household hazardous waste
8
f � �
collection events, brochures at public events, newspaper ads, public service announcements, we
feel would not be effective by reaching too broad an audience and not honing in on our targeted
group. In addition, we feel the methods chosen have a better chance of catching the attention of
the business owner, which is just as critical as developing a compelling message.
Section 4: Evaluation
Our evaluation effort will start by determining a baseline of participation from businesses near
the geographical area in the City of Los Angeles' program. We will then compare participation
and quantity of waste collected after each collection event and at the completion of the program
to determine the effectiveness of the efforts. This will also give us intermediate results to
determine the effectiveness of the outreach efforts as we progress.
All businesses participating in the program will have to make an appointment, which will be
coordinated through the City of Los Angeles. We will use this time to ask some short specific
questions to help us better determine the effectiveness of our outreach. This information will
give us information on what types of businesses are participating and what is motivating them to
participate. Conversely, we will also get information on what types of businesses are not
participating, which will enable us to increase efforts in those areas.
Each event will have an evaluation report quantifying the participation levels and survey
information. These reports will be extremely valuable in refining the outreach for the next event
to ensure an effective program.
For two of the four objectives that we set, we will be tracking and evaluating our progress
quarterly:
■ Increase participation - we will use participation data and appointment data
■ Increase awareness - we will use calls made to the hotline regarding CESQG program
We will track this data and use the data to evaluate the effectiveness of the outreach in attracting
the targeted businesses and determine which businesses we are successful at reaching. We will
also try to evaluate why certain businesses are not participating and what efforts can be made to
attract those businesses.
On an annual basis we will evaluate our effectiveness in regards to our broader goals of making
the program self sustaining and reducing illegal dumping.
To determine the program's self-sustainability we will analyze the costs incurred in operating the
program (not including initial program coordination) versus the number of participant
businesses. This data will give us the percentage increase the administrative costs would add to
an individual business' disposal costs.
To determine the program's effect on reducing illegal dumping we will use illegal and
abandoned waste reports to track the number of incidents occurring before, during, and after the
program. We will then evaluate this data to determine two things:
9
■ What type of waste is being illegally disposed. This will help us target business types that are
part of the problem.
■ How much waste is being illegally disposed. This will help us determine what kind of impact
the program is having on reducing illegal dumping of hazardous waste.
Section 5: Budget
The City of Vernon and the other regional cities do not have an adequate budget to develop and
implement a CESQG program and conduct a comprehensive outreach effort to build the program
to reach a cost-effective level. To over come this obstacle, the regional group of cities is
requesting "seed" funding to get the program started and will work with the existing
infrastructure of the City of Los Angeles' program to stretch our budget.
By working with the City of Los Angeles, and not creating our own program from scratch we
will save costs in time and effort in getting the program up and running quickly, for example:
■ developing the logistics for the program
■ establishing a hotline for appointments and information
■ staff training on running a collection event
The attached budget (see Appendix C: Itemized Budget) shows the breakdown of costs for the
program in categories of conducting the collection events, program administration and reporting,
program evaluation, and program public education.
Section 6: Completeness, Experience, and Letters of Support
The City of Vernon and the participating cities have included all the requested information to
obtain the grant funding. The resume of the HHW project contractor (Stephen Groner) is
attached in the appendix. The application includes letters of support from the City of Los
Angeles, County of Los Angeles, and several business organizations.
Section 7: Green Procurement Policy
The City of Vernon has guidelines for the procurement of recycled materials. The guidelines
promote the purchase of recycled products in whenever possible. Attached is a memo (see
Appendix E: Green Procurement Policy) dated January 13, 1992 from the Director of
Environmental Health Department to the Finance/Purchasing Department outlining these
guidelines.
The policy promotes the purchase of recycled products whenever possible and also pKomoted
other waste diversion activities such as recycling copier and computer printer cartridges,
fluorescent light tubes, green waste, and construction material.
10
Section 8 Programs for Rural Areas, Underserved Areas, or Small
Cities
The City of Vernon is one of the smallest cities in the State with a population of 85 (Department
of Finance data, see Appendix H: Regional Data and Area Map). The proposal will help target
one of the City's most pressing needs by serving the multitude of small exempt businesses in the
City and throughout the regional area. The City of Vernon is presently served by the Los Angeles
County household hazardous waste collection program. However this program only holds a
collection event in the City of Vernon on average once every other year. In addition, this
program is only for households and does not have a CESQG component.
Section 9: Multi -Jurisdictional HHW Program
The proposed program is to develop a regional CESQG program to serve the exempt small
businesses in the regional area. The regional area consists of a small corridor along the 710
freeway that is densely populated with small businesses.
By working together the regional program can more cost-effectively outreach to businesses
groups that do not follow jurisdictional boundaries. By focusing on a region, we are better able
to outreach to the various business types and work through trade associations that are specific to
the exempt businesses we will be serving.
Section 10: Collection of Additional HHW Waste Types
The County through its collection program presently serves the regional group of cities, however
this program does not accept waste from small quantity generator businesses. The grant proposal
is to establish a program to collect hazardous waste from these exempt small businesses in the
regional area.
Section 11: No HHW Grant Funding During Last Three Years
None of the cities in the regional program have received an HHW grant either as an individual
city or as a lead jurisdiction in the last three years. The City of Vernon has only received a grant
from the California Integrated Waste Management Board for the 5th Cycle Used Oil Grant (See
Summary of Used Oil & HHW grants form).
Section 12: Permanent & Sustainable HHW Collection Facility
The CESQG program will not include the development of a permanent collection facility. The
program is designed to be a self-sustaining program, with a fee charged to the businesses that
participate.

Stephen Groner, P.E. 20124 Village Green
Lakewood, CA 90715
Phone (562) 809-1850
SGRONER@email.com
BIOGRAPHICAL DESCRIPTION
Stephen Groner provides a unique blend of professional engineering with an
understanding of public outreach and communications programs.
Groner started his consulting firm in 1998 focusing on his experience in coordinating
some of the largest public education programs in the country. Groner's expertise is in
developing and implementing programs in the areas of stormwater/water quality and
hazardous and solid waste management.
Prior to forming his consultancy, Groner worked nine years for the Los Angeles County
Department of Public Works; most recently as the Program Manager for the
Environmental Affairs Program. There he managed the County's household hazardous
waste program, used oil collection and outreach programs, stormwater outreach
programs, and school environmental education programs.
During this time, Groner chaired the County Stormwater Outreach Committee, which
oversaw the fulfillment of the required tasks outlined in the NPDES permit regarding
public education. In this position he was in charge of developing and implementing the
5-year Stormwater Public Education Plan - serving 85 cities and the County.
Groner formed the cooperative used oil advertising campaign among 32 cities and the
County. This cooperative effort became the impetus for the California Integrated Waste
Management Board's development of an Used Oil Cooperative Grant option for
jurisdictions to pool money for overarching outreach efforts and retain a portion of the
funds for specific local efforts.
27
Groner also served as the chair of the Statewide Stormwater Taskforce Committee on
Public Involvement and Public Participation.
Stephen Groner's educational background is in Environmental Engineering and has and
has a degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the University of Wisconsin.
Groner is a California Registered Civil Engineer.
PROJECTS

Urban Runoff Program
Scope of Work:
➢ Research alternatives to structural BMP's that have been implemented in other
jurisdictions' programs.
Subconsultant on a project team developing BMP's to address floatable debris
discharge into the New York Harbor. New York City has a combined stormwater and
sewer system and is trying to determine a mix of BMP's, both structural and
nonstructural that will cost-effectively curb the discharge of debris into the Harbor.
Groner's focus is to recommend possible education and research/evaluation tools that
will address the issue.
City of Los Angeles
Household Hazardous Waste Program
Scope of Work:
➢ Conduct a comprehensive audit of the household hazardous waste program,
examining both the collection operation and the outreach/public education portion
of the program.
➢ Develop long and short-range strategic plans and assist in their implementation.
The strategic plan, developed after the comprehensive audit, focuses on shifting the
collection program from temporary events just for households to an integrated collection
program including permanent sites and temporary events, and collecting waste from
both residents and conditionally exempt small quantity generators. The plan also
emphasizes reaching out to a larger percentage of residents that have not participated in
collection events and targeting areas that have problems with illegal disposal of
household hazardous waste.
28
Santa Monica Bay Restoration Project
Policy Development and Outreach for Septic Tanks
Scope of Work:
➢ Develop a comprehensive situational analysis report of the current status of
regulation, permitting, and programs that address septic tanks in Los Angeles
County and their impact in the Malibu Creek Watershed.
➢ Develop policy options for mitigating the septic tanks' impact on the Watershed
The situational analysis focuses on understanding the current problems and issues
regarding septic tank use in the Malibu Creek Watershed. From the analysis, policy
options will be investigated and recommendations will be made for implementing them in
legislation and regulation.

Scope of Work:
➢ Conduct community outreach and be the community liaison related to issues
arising from the site cleanup
Subconsultant on a project team that will implement a cleanup plan for contaminated

Dear Mr. Pozzebon:
SUPPORT FOR THE REGIONAL CONDITIONALLY
EXEMPT SMALL QUANTITY GENERATOR PROGRAM
This letter is to show our support for the City of Vernon and the regional group of cities in
applying for a Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Grant to fund the development of a
multi jurisdictional Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) program to
serve the small businesses in the County.
The CESQG program will be very helpful to the exempt small businesses. These
businesses operate on a very tight budget and often have a difficult time managing all the
array of different regulations they are faced with. By establishing this program the
jurisdictions will be greatly assisting many County businesses in meeting the exemption
requirements, and helping to maintain a healthy community.
We look forward to providing your staff with assistance to help make this a successful
program.
