Landscapers and Property Managers;
h0�'1 When grass clipping, leaves, and bush/tree trimmings are placed in our local landfills,
'No they not only take up space, they also produce greenhouse gases as they decompose. To � ;..'
combat these problems, the State of California passed Assembly Bill 1826. This legislation
states that those who produce large amounts of organic waste must dispose of the material
dt in a green waste bin or at a green waste facility. The Bill also states that all businesses that ' "'n
.r contract for gardening or landscaping services must require that the contractor recycle the �a`tyk'�
resulting gardening or landscaping waste.'
To conform to the requirements of the Bill, landscapers should either: '
Contact Burrtec to arrange for a green waste bin.
'T Those that produce large amounts of green waste on a regular basis may find it beneficial' ;
`.� to arrange for green waste service. Service can be scheduled by calling Burrtec Customer
Service at 760-340-2113.
Or
Haul organic material to a green waste facility.
There are currently three local facilities that will compost green waste or turn it into
beneficial mulch. Local facilities include:

waste service or haul green waste to a local green waste facility.
