SUMMARY
On January 24, 2007, the Regional Water Quality Control Board adopted the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Permit. The Permit requires jurisdictions
within San Diego County to develop and enforce actions 'that prohibit the discharge of pollutants
into the City's storm waster conveyance systems. Adoption of the updates to the Recycling and
Solid Waste Planning i'vIanual includes requirements for recycling and solid waste enclosures and
storage areas in new industrial, commercial, and multi-family developments to be designed with
solid roofs to prevent storm water contact with trash and recyclables. The resolution includes
allowing future updates to the Recycling and Solid Waste Planning Manual to be made
administratively with the approval of the City Manager or designee.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the project qualifies
for a Class 7 categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15307 (Actions by Regulatory Agencies
for Protection of Natural Resources) of the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus, no further
environmental review is necessary
RECOMMENDATION
Council adopt the resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
The municipalities that discharge to San Diego Bay have established, through evaluation of

urban runoffmonitoring data and potential pollutant sources, that bacteria is a high priority water
quality problem in the San Diego Bay Watershed, as is the case throughout San Diego County.
Decaying organic material that is usually found in trash dumpsters serves as a medium for
bacterial growth. Often, trash dumpster lids in industrial, commercial, and multifamily
developments are left open. Open trash dumpsters can attract birds and cause a nuisance.
Furthermore, open trash dumpsters allow for exposure of trash to storm water during a rain
event. When rainwater comes in contact with trash, it can become contaminated with bacteria,
oil and grease, and nutrients. Rainfall into an open trash dumpster allows for these pollutants to
be transported in the runoff. The resulting runoff from an open dumpster can contain pollutants
that are discharged to a nearby storm drain, which eventually leads to San Diego Bay. By
building solid rooftops on recycling and trash areas, new industrial, commercial, and multi-
family developments can prevent storm water pollution through elimination of this possible
source of pollutants.
The solid rooftop shall be constntcted out of an impermeable material that excludes rainwater
from the trash enclosure. Examples of materials that can be used for a rooftop are corrugated
metal or plastic or tile roofing.
As a result of the Stormwater pollution prevention action, the Recycling and Solid Waste
Planning Manual, which was adopted by Council in January 2005, has been updated to include
the proposed language.
The Manual is made available to permit applicants from the Planning and Building Department,
Public Works Department - Environmental Services Division and at multiple locations on the
City web site. The Manual provides information for incorporating appropriate space for
recycling and solid waste; items to be considered in recycling and solid waste planning for
development projects; enclosure and storage area constntction requirements and contact
infonnation for the Public Works Department - Environmental Services Division staff, should an
applicant desire additional assistance or preliminary review of their plan.
Adoption of the resolution will approve the changes to the Manual and authorize the City
Manager or a designee to administratively approve future updates to the Manual. This will
ensure that this document is updated in a timely manner.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site
specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found in California Code of Regulations section
18704.2(a)(I) is not applicable to this decision.
FISCAL IMPACT
The requested actions will not impact the General Fund.

Recvclinq and Solid Waste Planninq Manual
I 1 - OVERVIEW
The State of California has mandated t'1at at least 50% of the solid waste generated be diverted from
landfills. Therefore, each applicant for a ef-a development, subdivision,_ major construction proiect or
demolition project (including new public facilities) is required to develop ::md submit a Recycling and
Solid Waste Plan within their drawinqs to ensure that aporopriate space has been allocated to recvclinq
and solid waste accumulation. storaqe. and collection so that the future occupants will have the abilitv to
participate in the City's solid waste and recvclinq proqrams. Plans for vour new proiect will be reviewed
by the Environmental Services Division to ensure adequate space has been allotted to recvclinq and solid
waste activities. Your desiqn should include the steps the applicant'occupant will take to meet the local
and State mandates and recycle the Desionated Recyclable materials as defined in Chula Vista Municipal
Code Chapter 8.25. Plans are subiect to approval by the Citv Manaqer or desiqnee.
Additionally a Construction and Demolition Waste Manaqement Report and performance deposit. for

Identify the recycling and trash space allocated within your project, as this will dictate how well your
occupants will be able to participate in the various City recvclinq programs, how much they will recycle
and how much they can save. Make sure your infrastructure planning allows your future occupants the
ability to avail themselves of all recycling and solid waste services. Your plan~ must provide adequate
space to properly store all the solid waste and recyclables generated on the site in approved containers
between service days. The plan~ must also allocate space in a manner that provides occupants with the
opportunity to divert all the Designated Recyclables generated at the site. Desiqnated Recvclables
include:
Residential recyclables - those specific recvclable materials from residential solid waste
(sinqle-familv and multi-family) includinq but not limited to. aluminum. qlass bottles and iars.
plastic bottles tin and bi-metal cans. newspapers mixed paper (maqazines. junk mail telephone
books. paperback books. and boxboard) cardboard. white qoods and vard waste.
Commercial recvclables - desiqnated recvclable materials from office and hospitalitv industries.
Materials include but are not limited to office paper. cardboard, qlass bottles and lars plastic
bottles. aluminum. tin and bi-metal cans and white qoods.
Industrial recyclables - recvclable material from industrial. construction and demolition
ooerations includino. but not limited to asphalt. concrete. dirt. land-c1earinq brush. sand and rock.
Your plan~ needs to describe how the recycling and solid waste infrastructure will be utilized by the
occupants and maintained on an on-going basis, such as:
o Include solid waste and recycling requirements and information in your CC&Rs,
employee/owner/tenant orientations, policy manuals, and lease agreements. Include
the draft language for these items in your Plan.
o Show where residents will store containers during the week and where they will be
placed on service day; where and how bulky items, Holiday trees and used motor oil will
be placed for collection. '
o If contracting with a landscaper, your plan must demonstrate that you will require all
yard waste to be diverted for reuse, either through on-site mulching, grasscycling, a
permitted compost facility or for reuse at the landfill - not disposal. Your plan shall
establish the requirement to obtain receipts from the contractor demonstrating that the
material was recycled or composted. Those receipts shall be maintained for eighteen
(18) months and be available to City staff for review upon two days notice during
regular business hours. .
a Color code containers and provide graphic signs that instruct occupants/customers to
separate materials in the containers used to transport recyclables and trash to the
outdoor enclosure.
o Place recycling containers next to all trash containers -("twinning").
o Review your operations at least annually. Contact the city for a free waste audit to
improve business recycling productivity, reduce waste and keep your solid waste and
recycling services cost-effective and up to date.
Small Quantity Generators (SQG - curbside service for residents and small businesses) can control their
monthly costs by reducing their trash volume through weekly trash and recycling collection, bulky item
collection, yard waste collection, used oil and oil filter collection, Holiday tree collection, and two annual
landfill passes and two annual yard waste passes. (See service brochures for details on these programs
at www.chulavistaca.Dov/CLE..<\N/Environmentalservices.)
Large Quantity Generators (LQG - commercial, multi-family and industrial projects with central collection
service) can control or reduce their costs by taking advantage of recycling savings. Restaurants and

LOQistical Considerations:
. Weeklv trash and food/beverage container recycling collection is the minimum requirement. All
multi-family, commercial, industrial and public facility properties may subscribe to service that is
more frequent.
. Small Quantity Generators (SQG - curbside collection) place two or more 96-gallon or smaller
trash and recycling carts at the curb for weekly collection on their assigned collection day. These
customers also receive yard waste, bulky-item, used oil and oil filter collection services.
Therefore there must be curbside space for these containers with one and a half (11/2) feet,
approximately eighteen inches, between each cart and any stationary objects (e.g. parked cars),
on service day.
. All properties must have adequate space to accommodate bin and/or cart storage for waste and
recyclable materials separately and out of public view in-between collection days. The City
strongly recommends that commercial properties plan for no more than three collections per
week and that multi-family properties plan for no more than twice per week service. For details
on enclosure design requirements see Enclosure and Chute Design Requirements - Central
Collection.
. Twinning - design so that recycling containers are placed with each trash receptacle.
. On a mixed-use site, the Recycling and Solid Waste Management Plan generally follows the
space allocation criteria for each use category (i.e. single-family, multi-family, commercial,
curbside collection, or central collection).

o Public facilities shall implement the service category that best fits the facility use, always twinning
recycling and trash containers for ease, convenience and to minimize the contamination of
recyclable materials.
. 0 . Offices typically generate a waste stream with' 40% to 60% mixed paper. Mixed paper includes:
office paper, cardboard, junk mail, magazines, telephone books, box board, etc. Carbon paper or
sinGle use items such as tissues and paper towels are not recyclable and must be com posted or
placed in the trash.
o If your business will consistently generate a large amount of wooden pallets, food waste, five-
gallon plastic buckets or another potentially' recyclable item~ you may contact the City~
Concerv3ticn ::me E;n'lironmont31 "orlices De~ertmontEnvironmental Services Division or ~
WCicto corlicosAllied Waste Services for recycling market assistance.
o If vour business manufactures a product and would like to include recycled materials in the
feedstock please contact the Environmental Services Division. The City of Chula Vista is part of
the South San Dieqo County RecyclinG Market Development Zone. Staff can help you with
sourcinG feedstock or markets for larqe volumes of recyclable waste materials. and can
determine if your operation mav qualify for low interest loans from the California Inteorated Waste
Manaqement Board. Go to www.ciwmb.ca.qov/RMDZlSanDieqo/formoredetails.
o Design in a manner that facilitates the following priorities: reduce, reuse, recycle, compost and
dispose.
Examples:
D Residential kitchens: Ample space for trash and recycling bins under sinks or in cabinetry
for separation of Designated Recyclables.
D Show where residents will store carts during the week on their property and where they
will be placed at the curb on collection day.
D Outdoor dining, lounge areas and public facilities: Plan for trash and Designated
Recyclables collection containers side-by-side (twinning).
D Copy and print rooms: Allow space for both trash and paper recycling containers side by
side to encourage diversion. .
D Bars and dining areas: Incorporate space for recycling of all food and beverage
containers, specifically, along with other Designated Recyclables as appropriate.
D Recreation Centers and Community Pools: Plan for trash and Designated Recyclables
collection containers side-by-side (twinning.)
o Residential automated collection vehicles collect materials from the right side of the vehicle only.
o Commercial collection vehicles collect materials at the front of the vehicle.
o If the collection truck must enter your property to service bins, the truck must be able to circulate
the parking area without backinG up. Collection vehicles have a turning radius of 37.1 ft.. are
approximately 35 feet long (curbside collection bucket adds 7 feet to the length for a total of 42
feet) and 8 feet wide.
To Complete your Plan:
o Review the ~rojoct docign shootmanual section that applies to. your project: residential,
commercial or industrial.
o Write a thorough description of how you will implement your Recycling and Solid Waste
Management Plan through each phase of the project: pre-construction. construction. and
operation/occupancy.
o Submit your Recycling and Solid Waste Management Plan with your projcct Jon vour site
drawinqs and submit to the ppliGo:ic~ te :ho Chula Vista Planning Department for approval.

2 - RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE STANDARDS FOR CURBSIDE OR DOOR-TO-DOOR SERVICE FOR
SMALL QUANTITY GENERATORS
Small Quantity Generators receive weekly recyclables, yard waste and trash collection, bulky items pick
up, used motor oil and oil filter collection services. Include in your site plan defined location(s) where the
trash, recycling and yard waste carts will be stored in-between service days, out of public view, and
where they will be placed at the curb for collection on service days.
All residential dwellings with curbside or door-to-door collection must be designed to allow for weekly
placement and collection of trash, yard waste and recycling containers at the curb.
There must be space at the curb
for a minimum of three
containers (trash, recyclables
and green waste),
3pproxim3(31)' approximatelv
eighteen inches apart, for each
dwellino unit. The City must
pre-approve alley collection.
The automated collection vehicle services the containers from the right side (curbside) of the vehicle.
Condominiums with no private landscaping can provide space for two carts (trash and recycling,
eliminating yard waste) per unit. However, condominiums must have an enclosure on the property,
sufficient for yard waste bins, to serve the common areas.
If contracting with a landscaper, your plan must demonstrate that you will require that all yard waste be
diverted for reuse, either through on-site mulching, grasscycling, a permitted compost facility or for reuse
at the landfill - not disposal. Your plan shall establish the requirement to obtain receipts from the
contractor demonstrating that the material was recycled or composted. Those receipts shall be

3 - RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE STANDARDS FOR MULTI-FAMILY COMPLEXES
CENTRAL COLLECTION - BIN SERVICE
The Residential Waste Stream typically includes the following recyclables: 40% paper, 10% metal, glass
and plastic containers and 30% yard waste (apartments/condos usually generate only 7% to 15% yard
waste from common areas).
Residential services include recyclables, yard waste and trash collection and bulky item pick up. Review
the service brochures for details on each of these services and how to prepare materials for collection in
these programs.
Multi-family Housing with Central Collection
. Trash and mhoa papcr recycling bins and "igia container roc~'cIing car:s must be in the same I
enclosure(s) and must allow access without having to move other containers out of the way.
Please see attachments for samples of enclosure drawinqs.
SAf1Plt ONLY
. All bins should be placed in the enclosure out of public view. If bins are placed front-to-front, leave at
least 3 feet between bins for access. The design must provide easy access for the residents ana
allow the hauler access to service bins and/or carts without moving other bins/carts out of the way.
. Design for approximately, one, 4-cubic yard bin for trash service for every 8-12 units depending on
the number of bedrooms per unit. See estimating formula in Section 1. Then add the required
recycling services for each enclosure. The City strongly recommends that you ao not assume more
than twice per week collection service to limit the number of collection truck trips on your property.
. Include an enclosure of appropriate size for centralized collection of yard waste. If contracting with a
landscaper, make certain to include in your contract the requirement that all yard waste must be
diverted for reuse, either through on-site mulching, grasscycling, a pemnitted compost facility or for
reuse at the landfill - not disposal. Include the requirement to receive copies of receipts to verify
diversion.
. All projects with six or more units shall provide additional space that is sufficient for the free monthly
bulky collection (mattresses, appliances, furniture), free annual Holiday Tree recycling and other
periodic or seasonal events. Approximately 400 square feet is required for a complex of 40 units or
more.
. If the collection truck must enter your property to service bins, the tnuck must be able to circulate the
parking area without backinq uP. Collection vehicles have a turning radius of 37.1 ft. are
approximately 35 feet long (curbside collection bucket adds 7 feet to the length for a total of 42 feet)
and 8 feet wide.
See the Multi-family service brochure for more information on residents' services. www.chula-vistaca.qov.
Trash and Recycling Chutes
. If a facility plans to provide chutes, the City ~ill -require that you provide lRfeetwo chutes adjacent
to one another in each disposal and recycling area. One chute identified for mixca ~3~er recyclables,
one shut" ;::en:;fiod fa" bcttlos 3na cons, and one chute identified for trash. Other options may be
proposed by first consulting the CitL's Consor/ation Coorainator.

4 - RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE STANDARDS FOR COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL BUSINESSES- CENTRAL
COLLECTION - BIN SERVICE
The Commercial Waste Stream varies by the type of business, but typically includes the following
recyclables: 40-60% paper, 5% metal, glass and plastic containers (10%-15% for food service
businesses) and 15% yard waste (or pre-consumer food waste that can be recycled with yard waste).
. Commerciai and industrial properties must have enclosure space and numbers of bins or carts
adequate to divert the Designated Recyclables generated on their property.
. . Trash and recycling bins or carts must be placed in the same enclosures.
. Yard waste must be separated from the trash. Plan for adequate container volume and service
intervals to divert yard waste (tree, brush or grass trimmings) generated at your business. If
contracting with a landscaper, your plan must demonstrate that you will require that all yard waste
be diverted for reuse, either through on-site mulching, grasscycling, a permitted compost facility
or for reuse at the landfill - not disposal. Your plan shall establish the requirement to obtain
receipts from the contractor demonstrating that the material was recycled or composted. Those
receipts shall be maintained for eighteen (18) months and be available to City staff for review
upon two-days notice during regular business hours.
. Each business should allocate space, in each enclosure, for at least one mixed popor bin ond
one rigid cent=!nor cort recvclinq bin along with lRBif-trash disposal service requirements.
. The City may require that the enclosure include additional space and access for other ancillary
services (i.e. restaurants-grease collection, auto repair-scrap metal collection, etc., where
applicable).
COMPACTORS:
. Commercial compactors are not recommended for trash service. Compactors must be pre-
approved by the City's franchise hauler, Pcci~c V'!;:s:c Scr;;cosAllied Waste Services and the
City Consor;ction Dnd Er'/ircnmontGI Sar/icGs C'opcrtmantEnvironmental Services ,Division.
(See Municipal Code S 8.24.080.B)

solid rooftops and shall be constructed out of an imoermeable material that excludes rainwater from
the trash enclosures.
0 All trash enclosures shall be paved with an impervious surface, designed not to allow water run-on
o
from adjoining areas, and shall be screened or walled to prevent off-site transport of trash.
Wheel stops for bins and carts must be configured such that they provide 8-inch bin clearance from
all three walls, 6 inches high is recommended.
Doors must be anchored to appropriately sized steel posts (min. 2 inches by 3/16 gauge steel) set
independently from walls.
Cane bolts, dropped into sleeved holes in the concrete, to hold doors in both the open and closed
position are required.
Enclosures andief containers within the enclosure, must have covers designed to reduce pests,
illegal disposal and exclude rain. (See Municipal Code 19.58.340)

o The fiat reinforced concrete pad (approximately 24 feet X 12 feet, no decorative stamping or
brickworkJcobblestones) in front of the enclosure should extend beyond the enclosure to provide
sufficient space to allow:
o The truck to stop in front of the enclosure with the front wheels resting on the concrete pad:
o The bins to be rolled out of the enclosure and;
o The bin to be positioned in front of the truck without moving the truck.
o There must be enough enclosures in the project to provide convenient and sufficient capacity to
handle the volume of recyclables and waste generated between collections.
o Each enclosure must be designed and sized appropriately to accommodate bins and/or carts for the
Designated Recyclables and solid waste generated on the property. All properties are required to
allocate space to recycle all Designated Recyclables.
o Enclosures must be designed so that trash, paper, rigid containers, and yard waste containers may
be accessed by the generator and serviced by the collection company without moving other bins or
carts. Recommendation: A separate pedestrian access door will save ,'ou I3r~G dooraate repairs,
prevent illegal disposal and is safer for the generator to use.

See attachments for samales of enclosure drawinos.
Enclosure Location
. Reduce or eliminate the need for collection trucks to drive onto private property whenever possible.
. If you place the enclosure within 25' of the public thoroughfare, the hauler will roll bins and carts to
the street for seNice at no additional charge.
. The hauler is authorized to add a seNice surcharge if they cannot drive to within 25' of the enclosure.
. If the collection truck must enter your property to seNice bins the truck must be able to circulate the
parking area without backing up. Trucks are approximately 35 - 42 feet long, 8 feet wide and a have
a turning radius of 37.1 feet.
. Do not put speed bumps, stamped concrete, cobblestones or other obstacles in front of enclosures
that would impede the access of the vehicle or bin rollout. Truck and bins must be on a fiat. concrete
surface when being seNiced.
. Whenever possible enclosures for apartments and condominiums should be geographically
distributed in a manner that is convenient for residents.
. Enclosures in commercial settings and public facilities should consider proximity to seNice doors,
traffic fiow, delivery patterns, etc.
Trash and Recycling Chutes
. If a facility plans to provide chutes, the City may require" that you provide tl+Feetwo chutes adjacent to
one another in each disposal and recycling area. One chute identified for r:lixod ?apor recyclables,
ona ch"to identified for bo~tles and oone, and one chute identified for trash. Other options may be
proposed by first consulting the City,'s Cgnsor:ation Coordin3'or.
. The driver must be able to seNice bins without moving other bins in the chute rooms.
. It is strongly recommended that you provide an enclosure(s) on site for corrugated cardboard
collection bin(s) as boxes may clog your trash and recycling chutes. If enough space is provided, the
enclosure can also be used for free bulky collection, Holiday tree collection and other periodic or
seasonal seNices.

Recycling and Solid Waste Planning Manual
I 1 - OVERVIEW I
The State of California has mandated that at least 50% of the solid waste generated be diverted
from landfills. Therefore, each applicant for a development, subdivision, major construction
project or demolition project (including new public facilities) is required to submit a Recycling
and Solid Waste Plan to ensure that appropriate space has been allocated to recycling and solid
waste accumulation, storage, and collection so that occupants will have the ability to participate
in the City's solid waste and recycling programs.
Additionally, a Construction and Demolition Waste Management Report and performance
deposit, for construction and de'molition covered projects is required as a component of the
permit approval process. (CVMC 8.25.095). For more details on the Construction and
Demolition Waste Management Report Form and perfonmance deposit requirements go to
www.chulavistaca.qov/clean/environmentalservices or contact the Environmental Services
Division at (619) 691-5122, environmentalservices@ci.chula-vista.ca.us
The Recycling and Solid Waste Plan must be a part of the Building Plans for the project; either
on the Building Plans themselves or attached to the Building Plans. The Buildings Plans for
your new project will be reviewed by the Environmental Services Division to ensure adequate
space has been allotted to recycling and solid waste activities. Your design sliould include the
steps the applicant/occupant will take to meet the local and State mandates and recycle the
Designated Recyclable materials as defined in Chula Vista Municipal Code Chapter 8.25. The
Recycling and Solid Waste Plan and the Construction and Demolition Waste Management
Report are subject to approval by the City Manager or designee.
Items to be considered in your planninq process:
Identify the recycling and trash space allocated within your project, as this. will dictate how well
your occupants will be able to participate in the various City recycling programs, how much they
will recycle and how much they can save. Make sure your infrastructure planning allows your
occupants the ability to avail themselves of all recycling and solid waste services. Your Building
Plans must show that you will provide adequate space to properly store all the solid waste and
recyclables generated on the site in approved containers between service days. The Building
Plans must also allocate space in a manner that provides occupants with the opportunity to
divert all the Designated Recyclables generated at the site. Designated Recyclables include:
Residential Recyclables - those specific recyclable materials from residential solid
waste (single-family and multi-family) including but not limited to, aluminum, glass bottles
and jars, plastic bottles, tin and bi-metal cans, newspapers, mixed paper (magazines,
junk mail, telephone books, paperback books, and boxboard) cardboard, white goods
and yard waste.
Commercial Recyclables - designated recyclable materials from office and hospitality
industries. Materials include but are not limited to, office paper, cardboard, glass bottles
and jars, plastic bottles, aluminum, tin and bi-metal cans, and white goods.

OTY OF
Your Building Plans need to describe how the recycling and solid waste infrastructure will be
utilized by the occupants and maintained on an on-going basis, such as:
o Include solid waste and recycling requirements and information in your CC&Rs,
employee/owner/tenant orientations, policy manuals, and lease agreements.
Include the draft language for these items in the notes within your Building
Plans.
o Show where residents will store containers during the week and where they will
be placed on service day; where and how bulky items, holiday trees and used
motor oil will be placed for collection.
o If contracting with a landscaper, your Building Plans must demonstrate that you
will require all yard waste to be diverted for reuse, either through on-site
mulching, grasscycling, a permitted compost facility or for reuse at the landfill -
not disposal. Your Buiiding Plans shall establish the requirement to obtain
receipts from the contractor demonstrating that the material was recycled or
composted. Those receipts shall be maintained for eighteen (18) months and
be available to City staff for review upon two days notice during regular
business hours.
o Color code containers and proyide graphic signs that instruct
occupants/customers to separate materials in the containers used to transport
recyclables and trash to the outdoor enclosure.
o Place recycling containers next to all trash containers -("twinning").
o Review your operations at least annually. Contact the city for a free waste audit
to improve business recycling productivity, reduce waste and keep your solid
waste and recycling services cost-effective and up to date.
Small Quantity Generators (SQG - curbside service for residents and small businesses) can
control their monthly costs by reducing their trash volume through weekly trash and recycling
collection, bulky item collection, yard waste collection, used oil and oil filter collection, Holiday
tree collection, and two annual landfill passes and two annual yard waste passes. (See service
brochures for details on these programs at
www.chulavistaca.gov/CLEAN/Environmentalservices.)
Large Quantity Generators (LQG - commercial, multi-family and industrial projects with central
collection service) can control or reduce their costs by taking advantage of recycling savings.
Restaurants and other hospitaiity facilities can obtain free food-beverage container collection
service.

LOQistica! Considerations:
. Weekly trash and food/beverage container recycling collection is the minimum
requirement All multi-family, commercial, industrial and public facility properties may
subscribe to service that is more frequent
. Small Quantity Generators (SQG - curbside collection) place two or more trash and
recycling carts at the curb for weekly collection on their assigned collection day. These
customers also receive yard waste, bulky-item, used oil and oil filter collection services.
Therefore, there must be curbside space for these containers with one and a half (11/2)
feet, approximately eighteen inches, between each cart and any stationary objects (e.g.
parked cars), on service day.
. All properties must have adequate space to accommodate bin and/or cart storage for
waste and recyclable materials separately and out of public view in-between collection
days. The City strongly recommends that commercial properties plan for no more than
three collections per week and that multi-family properties plan for no more than twice
per week service. For details on enclosure design requirements see Enclosure and
Chute Design Requirements - Central Collection.
. Twinning - design so that recycling containers are placed with each trash receptacle.

On a mixed-use site, the Recycling and Solid Waste Management Plan generally follows
the space allocation criteria for each use category (i.e. single-family, multi-family,
commercial, curbside collection, or central collection).
CITY OF
.
Public facilities shall implement the service category that best fits the facility use, always
twinning recycling and trash containers for ease, convenience and to minimize the
contamination of recyclable materials.
Offices typically generate a waste stream with 40% to 60% mixed paper. Mixed paper
includes: office paper, cardboard, junk mail, magazines, telephone books, box board,
etc, Carbon paper or sinqle use items such as tissues and paper towels are not
recvclable and must be com posted or placed in the trash.
If your business will consistently generate a large amount of wooden pallets, food waste,
five-gallon plastic buckets or another potentially recyclable items you may contact the
City's Environmental Services Division or Allied Waste Services for recycling market
assistance,
If your business manufactures a product and would like to include recycled materials in
the feedstock please contact the Environmental Services Division. The City of Chula
Vista is part of the South San Diego County Recycling Market Development Zone. Staff
can help you with sourcing feedstock or markets for large volumes of recyclable waste
materials, and can determine if your operation may qualify for low interest loans from the
California Integrated Waste Management Board. Go to
www.ciwmb.ca.qov/RMDZ/SanDieqo/for more details.
Design in a manner that facilitates the following priorities: reduce, reuse, recycle,
compost and dispose.
Examples:
D Residential kitchens: Ample space for trash and recycling bins under sinks or in
cabinetry for separation of Designated Recyclables.
D Show where residents will store carts during the week on their property and
where they will be placed at the curb on collection day.
D Outdoor dining, lounge areas and public facilities: Plan for trash and Designated
Recyclables collection containers side-by-side (twinning).
D Copy and print rooms: Allow space for both trash and paper recycling containers
side by side to encourage diversion.
D Bars and dining areas: Incorporate space for recycling of all food and beverage
containers, specifically, along with other Designated Recyclables as appropriate.
D Recreation Centers and Community Pools: Plan for trash and Designated
Recyclables collection containers side-by-side (twinning.)
Residential automated collection vehicles collect materials from the right side of the
vehicle only.
Commercial collection vehicles collect materials at the front of the vehicle.

2 - RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE STANDARDS FOR CURBSIDE OR DOOR- To-DoOR SERVICE FOR
SMALL QUANTITY GENERATORS
Small Quantity Generators receive weekly recyclables, yard waste and trash collection, bulky
items pick up, used motor oil and oil filter collection services. Include in your Building Plans
defined location(s) where the trash, recycling and yard waste carts will be stored in-between
service days, out of public view, and where they will be placed at the curb for collection on
service days.
All residential dwellings with
curbside or door-to-door
collection must be designed
to allow for weekly placement
and collection of trash, yard
waste and recycling
containers at the curb.
.,..,r"",.
Yard
Waste
There must be space at the curb for a minimum of three containers (trash, recyclables and
green waste), approximately eighteen inches apart, for each dwellinq unit. The City must pre-
approve alley collection. .
The automated collection vehicle services the containers from the right side (curbside) of the
vehicle.
Condominiums with no private landscaping can provide space for two carts (trash and recycling,
eliminating yard waste) per unit However, condominiums must have an enclosure on the
property, sufficient for yard waste bins, to serve the common areas.
If contracting with a landscaper, your Building Plans must demonstrate that you will require that
all yard waste be diverted for reuse, either through on-site mulching, grasscycling, a permiited
compost facility or for reuse at the landfill - not disposal. Your Building Plans shall establish the
requirement to obtain receipts from the contractor demonstrating that the material was recycled
or composted. Those receipts shall be maintained for eighteen (18) months and be available to

3. RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE STANDARDS FOR MULTI-FAMILY COMPLEXES
CENTRAL COLLECTION - BIN SERVICE
The Residential Waste Stream typically includes the following recyclables: 40% paper, 10%
metal, glass and plastic containers and 30% yard waste (apartments/condos usually generate
only 7% to 15% yard waste from common areas).
Residential services include recyclables, yard waste and trash collection and bulky item pick up.
Review the service brochures for details on each of these services and how to prepare
materials for collection in these programs.
Multi-family Housing with Central Collection
. Trash and recycling bins must be in the same enclosure(s) and must allow access without
having to move other containers out of the way.
. Please see attachments for sample drawings of enclosures All bins should be placed in the
enclosure out of public view. If bins are placed front-to-front, leave at least 3 feet between
bins for access. The design must provide easy access for the residents and allow the hauler
access to service bins and/or carts without moving other bins/carts out of the way.
. Design for approximately, one, 4-cubic yard bin for trash service for every 8-12 units
depending on the number of bedrooms per unit. See estimating formula in Section 1. Then
add the required recycling services for each enclosure. The City strongly recommends that
you do not assume more than twice per week collection service to limit the number of
collection truck trips on your property.
. Include an enclosure of appropriate size for centralized collection of yard waste. If
contracting with a landscaper, make certain to include in your contract the requirement that
all yard waste must be diverted for reuse, either through on-site mulching, grasscycling, a
permitted compost facility or for reuse at the landfill - not disposal. Include the requirement
to receive copies of receipts to verify diversion.
. All projects with six or more units shall provide additional space that is sufficient for the free
monthly bulky collection (mattresses, appliances, furniture), free annual holiday tree
recycling and other periodic or seasonal events. Approximately 400 square feet is required
for a complex of 40 units or more. .
. If the collection truck must enter your property to service bins, the truck must be able to
circulate the parking area without backinq UP. Collection vehicles have a turning radius of
37.1 ft. are approximately 35 feet long (curbside collection bucket adds 7 feet to the length
for a total of 42 feet) and 8 feet wide.
See the Multi-family service brochure for more information on residents' services.
Trash and Recycling Chutes
. If a facility plans to provide chutes, the City requires that you provide two chutes adjacent to
one another in each disposal and recycling area. One chute shall be identified for
recyclables, and one chute shall be identified for trash. Other options may be proposed by
first consulting the City.

. The driver must be able to service bins without moving other bins in the chute rooms.
. It is strongly recommended that you provide an enclosure(s) on site for corrugated
cardboard as boxes may clog your trash and recycling chutes. If enough space is provided,
the enclosure can also be used for free bulky collection, holiday tree collection and other
periodic or seasonal services.

4 - RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE STANDARDS FOR COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL BUSINESSES- CENTRAL
COLLECTION - BIN SERVICE
The Commercial Waste Stream varies by the type of business, but typically includes the
following recyclables: 40-60% paper, 5% metal, glass and plastic container's (10%-15% forfood
service businesses) and 15% yard waste (or pre-consumer food waste that can be recycled with
yard waste).
. Commercial and industrial properties must have enclosure space and numbers of bins or
carts adequate to divert the Designated Recyclables generated on their property.
. Trash and recycling bins or carts must be placed in the same enclosures.
. Yard waste must be separated from the trash. Plan for adequate container volume and
service intervals to divert yard waste (tree, brush or grass trimmings) generated at your
business. If contracting with a landscaper, your Building Plans must demonstrate that
you will require that all yard waste be diverted for reuse, either through on-site mulching,
grasscycling, a permitted compost facility or for reuse at the landfill - not disposal. Your
Building Plans shall establish the requirement to obtain receipts from the contractor
demonstrating that the material was recycled or composted. Those receipts shall be
maintained for eighteen (18) months and be available to City staff for review upon two-
days notice during regular business hours.
. Each business should allocate space, in each enclosure, for at least one recycling bin
along with the needed trash bin disposal service requirements.
. The City may require that the enclosure include additional space and access for other
ancillary services (i.e. restaurants-grease collection, auto repair-scrap metal collection,
etc., where applicable).
COMPACTORS:
. Commercial compactors are not recommended for trash service. Compactors must be
pre-approved by the City's franchise hauler, Allied Waste Services and the City
Environmental Services Division. (See Municipal Code S 8.24.080.B)
. A business that is using a compactor must still divert Designated Recyclables: paper,
cardboard, food and beverage containers, yard waste, clean lumber and metals, etc.
(See Municipal Code Chapter 8.25).
CONTACTS:
. For service day information or other collection clarification, contact Allied Waste Services
at (619) 421-9400. Allied's representative will be available to review Building Plans for

5. RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE ENCLOSURE STANDARDS
The following minimum bin and cart dimensions are to be used when designing your enclosures.
. Trash enclosures should be as far away from storm drain inlets as possible. Enclosures
shall have solid roofs that are constructed out of an impermeable material that excludes
rainwater from the trash enclosures.
. All trash enclosures shall be paved with an impervious surface, designed not to allow water
run-on from adjoining areas, and shall be screened or walled to prevent off-site transport of
trash.
. Wheel stops for bins and carts must be configured such that they provide 8-inch bin
clearance from all three walls, 6 inches high is recommended.
. Doors must be anchored to appropriately sized steel posts (min. 2 inches by 3/16 gauge
steel) set independently from walls.
. Cane bolts, dropped into sleeved holes in the concrete, to hold doors in both the open and
closed position are required.
. Containers and bins within the enclosure must have covers designed to reduce pests, illegal
disposal and exclude rain.
. The flat reinforced concrete pad (approximately 24 feet X 12 feet, no decorative stamping or
brickwork/cobblestones) in front of the enclosure should extend beyond the enclosure to
provide sufficient space to allow:
o The truck to stop in front of the enclosure with the front wheels resting on the
concrete pad:
o The bins to be rolled out of the enclosure and;

.
Each enclosure must be designed and sized appropriately to accommodate bins and/or
carts for the Designated Recyclables and solid waste generated on the property. All
properties are required to allocate space to recycle all Designated Recyclables.
Enclosures must be designed so that trash, paper, rigid containers, and yard waste
containers may be accessed by the generator and serviced by the collection company
without moving other bins or carts. Recommendation: A separate pedestrian access door.
will save gate repairs, prevent illegal disposal and is safer for the generator to use.
The City may require that the enclosure include additional space and access for other
ancillary services i.e. restaurants - grease collection, auto repair - scrap metal collection, etc.
where applicable.
Each enclosure must be located on the Building Plans and the bin and carts placement
inside the enclosure clearly identified - R= recycling; Y= yard waste recycling; T= waste or
trash.
.
.
.
See attachments for sample drawings of enclosures.
Enclosure Location
. Reduce or eliminate the need for collection trucks to drive onto private property whenever
possible.
. If you place the enclosure within 25' of the public thoroughfare, the hauler will roll bins and
carts to the street for service at no additional charge.
. The hauler is authorized to add a service surcharge if they cannot drive to within 25' of the
enclosure.
. If the collection truck must enter your property to service bins the truck must be able to
circulate the parking area without backing up. Trucks are approximately 35 - 42 feet long, 8
feet wide and a have a turning radius of 37.1 feet.
. Do not put speed bumps, stamped concrete, cobblestones or other obstacles in front of
enclosures that would impede the access of the vehicle or bin rollout. Truck and bins must
be on a flat, concrete surface when being serviced.
. Whenever possible enclosures for apartments and condominiums should be geographically
distributed in a manner that is convenient for residents.
. Enclosures in commercial settings and public facilities should consider proximity to service
doors, traffic flow, delivery patterns, etc.
