California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle)

Partnership 2000

Partnership Work Group

The Partnership 2000 Work Group was formed in August of 2003 to complete a commitment started at the 6th Annual LEA/CIWMB Conference (now the annual technical training series). The workgroup members met on August 27, 2003 regarding permitting, enforcement, and regulation topics.

The workgroup was divided into two subgroups:

These subgroups attended additional meetings early in 2004 as well as two at the 7th Annual LEA/CIWMB Conference.

The work group included members representing the (now CalRecycle), local enforcement agencies (LEA), and the California Conference of Directors of Environmental Health (CCDEH).

Subgroups

CEQA

For its tasks, in 2006, the CEQA subgroup developed a paper (Word, 70 KB | PDF, 63 KB) to depict how the Board, Board staff, and the LEA applied the CEQA process relative to solid waste facilities permits. The goal of the paper was to show the perspectives on the CEQA process, as they were at the time the paper was completed. In addition to development of the issue paper, the subgroup also spurred the development of the CEQA Toolbox.

Gaining Compliance

The gaining compliance subgroup completed its responsibilities by developing an issue paper (Word, 139 KB | PDF, 75 KB) to chronicle the current state of how compliance is achieved at solid waste facilities, identify problems or barriers to achieving compliance or taking enforcement, and present ideas for solutions that would solve these problems. This issue paper was used during a presentation to the Permitting and Enforcement Committee in February 2006 on the discussion of statutory issues related to permitting and enforcement processes.
