Based upon the information provided in your report, your City's program information has been updated(see attached program printout). In addition, your preliminary diversion rate has been determined to be 52 percent. Please note that your diversion rate is not approved until the Board conducts the 1999/2000 Biennial Review. The focus of the 1999/2000 Biennial Review will be to determine whether a jurisdiction has adequately implemented diversion programs to meet the 2000 waste diversion requirement of 50 percent based on information provided in both the 1999 and 2000 Annual Reports. The 1999/2000 Biennial Review will commence this fall. I look forward to working with your City in preparation for the 1999/2000 Biennial Review. If you have any questions about the 1999 Annual Report review process,please contact me at (916) 341-6243.
