(A) Self-haulers shall source separate all recyclable materials and organic waste (materials that the city otherwise requires 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 §§ 18984.1 and 18984.2, or shall haul organic waste to a high diversion organic waste processing facility as specified in 14 CCR § 18984.3.
(B) Self-haulers shall haul their source separated recyclable materials to a facility that recovers those materials and provide the city delivery receipts and weight tickets from the entity accepting the 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.
(C) Self-haulers that are commercial businesses (including multi-family 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; and
(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.
(D) Self-haulers that are commercial businesses (including multi-family self-haulers) shall provide information collected in § 6.18.080(B) and § 6.18.080(C) to the city on a monthly basis to the Management Services Department for the duration of the permit. Self-haulers will be required to register with the city upon issuance of a business license or self-hauler permit for source separated recyclable materials and/or organic waste.
(E) Any applicant issued a self-hauler permit for source separated recyclable materials and/or organic waste found to be in violation of § 6.18.080 of this chapter, upon issuance of a first notice of violation, at the discretion of the city enforcement official, will have the self-hauler permit revoked and will be required to subscribe to solid waste and recycling services from the city's franchise waste hauler within five days of the issuance of the notice of violation. Failure to subscribe to solid waste and recycling services will result in penalties prescribed in § 6.18.110 Enforcement.
