Mandatory Recycling Ordinance – All businesses, institutions, and multi-family properties with 5 or more units must recycle, collect organics, and provide educational materials to occupants.
Know Your Requirements – Are you keeping reportable quantities of hazardous materials (e.g., paint, compressed gas) on your premises? Do you generate hazardous waste? Are there fuel tanks onsite? If so, you may be subject to various programs of your local Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA). Visit the website of the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department if you’re within the Pleasanton city limits or Alameda County Environmental Health if you’re in unincorporated Pleasanton.
Get Help for Disposal of Your Hazardous Waste – Alameda County runs a Small Business Hazardous Waste Program to help Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generators. There’s also a drop-in program for businesses with latex paint, fluorescent lamps, batteries, and aerosol cans.
