RE: A Resolution approving and authorizing the submittal of application(s) for
the CalRecycle Used Oil Payment Program and the Beverage Container
Recycling City/County Payment Program
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the request for authority to receive and spend payment program funds in
this staff report is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines sections 15308 (actions taken to protect the environment), 15323 (normal
operations of public facilities) and 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to
projects that may have an effect on the environment.
B. Adopt a resolution requesting approval and authority to receive and spend payment program
funds from CalRecycle.
Background:
As previously presented at the April 18, 2017 Vernon City Council meeting, the Department of
Health and Environmental Control has, for the past several years, applied for and received funds for
three different grants administered by the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery
(CalRecycle): the Used Oil Payment Program Grant, the Local Enforcement Agency Program Grant
and the Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program Grant. In its administration of
these grants, CalRecycle requires an agency's governing body to declare by resolution certain
authorizations related to the agency's application for program funds. As a result, at the April 18,
2017 Vernon City Council meeting the Honorable Mayor and City Council approved and adopted
Resolution No. 2017-15 "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Vernon Approving and
Authorizing the Submittal of Application(s) for all CalRecycle Grants for which the City of Vernon
is Eligible". It was the Department of Health and Environmental Control's understanding that this
resolution would be sufficient to cover all of the previously mentioned CalRecycle grants.
However, our department was informed by CalRecycle on May 2, 2017 that another resolution
would be required for the Used Oil Payment Program and the Beverage Container Recycling
City/County Payment Program Grant since they are technically "payment programs" and not grants.
Here again is a brief description of these two payment programs:
The Used Oil Payment Program is awarded to agencies to help implement CalRecycle's used oil
programs. Historically, the City has received approximately $5,000 on a yearly basis for this
payment program. These funds have been used to improve the public's awareness of used oil
recycling opportunities and the damage to the environment caused from releases of used oil. Funded
activities have included:
• The purchase of educational materials (pamphlets, etc.).
• The distribution of free used oil -recycling containers to Vernon business employees and the
public.
• Stormwater mitigation activities.
• The services of a consultant to conduct educational outreach efforts.
Fiscal Year 2017/2018 Used Oil Payment Program fund levels for Vernon are expected to be the
same as previous years (approximately $5,000).
The Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program helps fund beverage container
recycling and litter reduction activities. Funds will be utilized to promote and distribute recycling
and litter reduction information throughout the City of Vernon as well as to purchase products to
promote recycling.
Fiscal Year 2017/2018 Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program fund levels for
Vernon are expected to be the same as previous years (approximately $5,000).
Fiscal Impact:
If approved, the City expects to receive approximately $10,000 in funds in total for these two
payment programs. There is a minor fiscal impact that is expected for administrative oversight of
the fund activities. However, considering the overall benefits the City will receive by use of the
funds, it is worthwhile for our department to pursue these funding programs.
