- On January 17, 2012, CalRecycle conditionally approved this plan. The Request for Approval explains the conditions for approval. As part of the conditional approval, CARE was required to submit an updated Plan to CalRecycle by December 31, 2012. CARE requested an extension in December 2012. CalRecycle granted the extension to May 31, 2013, which was announced at the January 2013 CalRecycle Public Meeting. Additionally, CalRecycle sent a letter to CARE describing items to be covered in the updated Plan.
- Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, CalRecycle adopted a negative declaration on January 17, 2012 after finding the California Carpet Stewardship Plan would not cause any significant adverse environmental impacts.
- CARE provided new language on January 19, 2012 to address one of the conditions concerning audits. CalRecycle has asked CARE to include this language in the revised Plan.
- Process and key documents:
An addendum to a Plan is used after formal plan approval to address changing conditions and implementation challenges when it is not timely for a stewardship organization to wait for the next Annual Report review. On December 28, 2014, CARE submitted an Addendum to its approved Plan to respond to CalRecycle’s decision of noncompliance and has requested accelerated review and approval of the Addendum. The Addendum describes changes CARE is making to improve the Program and address non-compliance. The Director of CalRecycle reviewed the Addendum and made a decision to accept changes in the Addendum as explained in a letter to CARE (PDF 245). Acceptance of the Addendum does not mean that CalRecycle considers the Program in compliance. CalRecycle evaluates compliance at the time of Annual Report reviews.
