Reducing waste sent to landfills
by recycling organic material.

Why Recycle Organic Waste?

Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383) is also known as California’s Short-Lived Climate Pollutant (SLCP): Organic Waste Methane Emissions Reduction Act. In September 2016, Governor Brown signed into law SB 1383, establishing methane emissions reduction targets in a statewide effort to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants in various sectors of California economy. Beginning in 2022, SB 1383 requires every jurisdiction to provide organic waste collection services to all residents and businesses.

1. “Jurisdiction” means a city, county, a city and county, or a special district that provides solid waste collection services.
2. “Organic waste” includes food, green material, landscape and pruning waste, organic textiles and carpets, lumber, wood, paper products, printing and writing paper, manure, biosolids, digestate, and sludges.
