RE: A RESOLUTION APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE SUBMITTAL OF
APPLICATION(S) FOR CALRECYCLE PAYMENT PROGRAMS FOR
WHICH THE CITY OF VERNON IS ELIGIBLE
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; and
B. Adopt a resolution requesting approval and authority to receive and spend payment program
funds from the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery ("CalRecycle").
Background
For the past several years, the Department of Health and Environmental Control has successfully
applied for and received payment program funds for three different programs administered by
CalRecycle:
1) Used Oil Payment Program
2) Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program
3) Local Enforcement Agency Program
Recently, the Used Oil Payment Program and the Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment
Program were transferred to the Public Works Department. As such, the Public Works Department will
be administering the Used Oil Payment Program and the Beverage Container Recycling City/County
Payment Program.
By way of background, the Used Oil Payment Program is awarded to agencies to assist in implementing
CalRecycle's used oil programs. Historically, the City has received approximately $5,000 on a yearly
basis for this payment program. The funds have been used to improve the public's awareness of used
oil recycling opportunities and the damage to the environment caused from the improper discharge 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 2018/2019 Used Oil Payment Program fund levels for the City of Vernon are expected to
be the same as previous years, approximately $5,000.
The Beverage Container Recycling City/Council Payment Program assists in funding 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 2018/2019 Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program fund levels for
the City of Vernon are also expected to be the same as previous years, approximately $5,000.
With the transition of said programs to the Public Works Department, Public Works staff is requesting
authorization for the Director of Public Works to sign the applications and documents to receive and
spend payment program funds from CalRecycle moving forward. The proposed resolution has been
approved as to form by the City Attorney's office.
Fiscal Impact
If approved, the City expects to receive approximately $10,000 in funds in total for the two payment
programs. There is a minor marginal 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 the Public Works Department to pursue these funding programs.
