16.72.040 Diversion Requirement.
   A.   Applicants for any covered project are required to recycle or divert at least sixty-five percent (65%), or meet the amounts, criteria and requirements specified in the applicable California Green Building Standards Code, whichever is more restrictive, of all materials generated for discard by the project.
   B.   If an Applicant for a Covered Project experiences circumstances that the Applicant believes make it impossible to comply with the Diversion Requirement, the Applicant shall submit written justification with the Waste Management Plan. The Director of Public Works will determine, in writing, whether any diversion requirements shall be waived in whole or in part on grounds of impracticability or impossibility.
