Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this code, and in addition to any other requirements for self-haulers contained in this code not inconsistent with the requirements of this article, and any rules and regulations of the city which implement, interpret, administer and enforce this chapter, the following requirements shall apply to self-haulers:

A. Self-haulers of organic waste shall comply with the requirements in 14 CCR Section 18988.3.

B. Self-haulers shall source separate all recyclable materials and organic waste (materials that city otherwise requires organic waste generators to separate for collection in the city’s organics and recycling collection program) generated on site from solid waste in a manner consistent with 14 CCR Section 18984.1, or shall haul organic waste to a high diversion organic waste processing facility as specified in 14 CCR Section 18984.3.

C. Self-haulers shall haul their source separated recyclable materials to a facility that recovers those materials; and haul their source separated green container organic waste to a solid waste facility, operation, activity, or property that processes or recovers source separated organic waste. Alternatively, self-haulers may haul organic waste to a high diversion organic waste processing facility.

D. Self-haulers that are commercial businesses (including multifamily residential dwellings) shall keep a record of the amount of organic waste delivered to each solid waste facility, operation, activity, or property that processes or recovers organic waste; this record shall be subject to inspection by the city. The records shall include the following information:

1. Delivery receipts and weight tickets from the entity accepting the waste.

2. The amount of material in cubic yards or tons transported by the generator to each entity.

3. If the material is transported to an entity that does not have scales on site, or employs scales incapable of weighing the self-hauler’s vehicle in a manner that allows it to determine the weight of materials received, the self-hauler is not required to record the weight of material but shall keep a record of the entities that received the organic waste.

E. A single-family organic waste generator that self-hauls organic waste is not required to record or report information in subsection D of this section.

F. Self-haulers that are commercial businesses (including multifamily residential dwellings that are self-haulers) shall provide information collected pursuant to subsection D of this section to city, if requested. (Ord. 716 §1, 2021).
