(A) Food waste self-haulers shall report pursuant to section 18815.4(b) of this article.

(B) Recycling and composting facilities and operations, brokers, and transporters shall report by material type pursuant to paragraph (2) for all material sent to each destination, including residuals and separated materials sent to a disposal facility.

(C) Disposal facilities reporting inflows of materials that are used for beneficial reuse shall report material type pursuant to paragraph (3). Reporting entities reporting potential beneficial reuse shall report material type pursuant to paragraph (2). No reporting entity shall include tons of clean or contaminated soil in the tons of potential beneficial reuse.

(D) Contract haulers, transfer/processors, and disposal facilities shall report material type as follows:

(A) A reporting entity shall report a homogeneous material or individual grade of material as that individual material type (e.g., HDPE bottles, aluminum cans, flint glass bottles, concrete, or mulch).

(B) A reporting entity shall report combinations of various materials within a single material category based on applicable industry standards (e.g., ferrous metals, crushed mixed glass, mixed paper, or rigid plastics).

(C) A reporting entity shall report mixed materials from several categories as mixed materials or commingled recyclables based on applicable industry standards.

(D) Commencing with reporting period 1 of 2025, if a reporting entity reports material that is not homogenous or not an individual grade of material type, then the reporting entity shall identify the specific materials within that mixture unless the reporting entity certifies that they cannot do so because they do not have information on specific materials. False certification shall be subject to penalties pursuant to this article.

(E) Notwithstanding subparagraphs (A) through (D), entities reporting green material for potential beneficial reuse shall report material type as green material.

(A) Report all ADC and AIC by the following material types:

(B) Report all materials used for construction, landscaping, and erosion control on site by material type, pursuant to subsection (a)(2).

(C) Not include tons of clean or contaminated soil used as cover material or for other uses at a landfill.

(A) Actual tons collected from each jurisdiction.

(B) Total volume of bins emptied from each jurisdiction.

(C) Billing records for customers in each jurisdiction.

(D) Company dispatcher records of hauling routes and generator locations.

(A) A transfer/processor or disposal facility without a gatehouse attendant present during all business hours shall collect jurisdiction of origin information on each load for all hours in which an attendant is present. At minimum, a gatehouse attendant must be present during all business hours of one week per quarter. If this requirement is not met, then a facility shall additionally conduct an origin survey no less frequently than once per reporting period and for at least one week in duration. During the survey week(s), the facility shall survey every load of material received to determine the jurisdiction of origin. A facility shall apply the jurisdiction percentages obtained during the survey week(s) to tonnages that have not been assigned to a jurisdiction of origin in the reporting period.

(B) A transfer/processor or disposal facility without a gatehouse attendant present during any business hours that only accepts material from specified jurisdictions may assign the solid waste to those jurisdictions based on facility usage agreements and restrictions, property records, or other records that are representative of the jurisdictional breakdown of the material received.

(C) A transfer/processor or disposal facility without a gatehouse attendant present during any business hours that has no representative basis for determining jurisdiction of origin may assign the solid waste to the jurisdiction in which the facility is located.

(A) If the facility reasonably can track jurisdictions of origin for the generated materials based on the jurisdictions of origin of the accepted materials, then the facility shall determine jurisdictions of origin for the generated materials according to such tracking.

(B) If the facility reasonably cannot track jurisdictions of origin for the generated materials but obtains jurisdiction of origin information for accepted materials, then jurisdictions of origin shall be assigned proportionally among the generated materials according to the jurisdictions of origin of the accepted materials.

(C) If the facility does not determine jurisdictions of origin pursuant to subparagraph (A) or (B), then the facility shall determine the jurisdiction of origin as the jurisdiction within which the facility is located.

(A) If the recipient reporting entity is a broker or transporter, then determine the jurisdiction of origin as the jurisdiction within which the material is located when the receiving broker or transporter received the material.

(B) If the recipient reporting entity is not a broker or transporter, and if the sending reporting entity is a transfer/processor, recycler/composter, or disposal facility, then determine the jurisdiction of origin as the jurisdiction within which the sending reporting entity is located.

(C) If the recipient reporting entity is not a broker or transporter, and if the sending reporting entity is a hauler, broker, or transporter, then determine the jurisdiction of origin as the jurisdiction within which the receiving reporting entity is located.

(D) Report to the Department any sending reporting entity who failed to provide required jurisdiction of origin information pursuant to section 18815.13 of this article.

(A) If the facility reasonably can track jurisdictions of origin for tons sent to each destination based on the jurisdictions of origin of the accepted materials, then the facility shall determine jurisdictions of origin for the tons sent according to such tracking.

(B) If the facility reasonably cannot track jurisdictions of origin for tons sent but obtains jurisdiction of origin information for accepted materials, then jurisdictions of origin shall be assigned proportionally among the tons sent to a destination facility according to the jurisdictions of origin of the accepted materials.

(C) If the facility does not determine jurisdictions of origin pursuant to subparagraph (A) or (B), then the facility shall determine the jurisdiction of origin by assigning the tons either to the jurisdiction in which the recycling, composting, or disposal facility is located or to the jurisdiction within which the material is located when the broker or transporter received the material.

(A) Small vehicles, such as automobiles, pickups and small trailers, and flat beds as “self-hauled.”

(B) Side loaders as “contract-hauled single-family residential.”

(C) Front loaders, rear loaders, and roll-off trucks as “contract-hauled commercial/multi-family.”

(A) Cash accounts as “self-hauled.”

(B) Accounts with jurisdictions or their haulers for residential routes as “contract-hauled single-family residential.”

(C) Accounts with jurisdictions or their haulers for commercial routes as “contract-hauled commercial/multi-family.”

(A) Side loaders as “contract-hauled single-family residential.”

(B) Front loaders and rear loaders as “contract-hauled commercial/multi-family.”

(A) Accounts with jurisdictions for residential routes as “contract-hauled single-family residential.”

(B) Accounts with jurisdictions for commercial routes as “contract-hauled commercial/multi-family.”

(C) Accounts with businesses and apartments as “contract-hauled commercial/multi-family.”

(A) If a transfer/processor or disposal facility records self-haul loads by volume, then they may estimate disposal tonnages using volume-to-weight conversion factors. If a transfer/processor or a disposal facility records self-haul loads by vehicle size and/or type, then they may estimate the disposal tonnages using weight estimates for each vehicle size and/or type.

(B) If a transfer/processor weighs total inbound contract-hauled tons and the total tons sent to disposal, then they may use the difference in weight to estimate self-haul sector.

(C) If a transfer/processor accepts an annual average of less than 100 tons of material per operating day, or less than 200 tons per operating day if located in a rural city or county, as set forth in sections 40183 and 40184 of the Public Resources Code, then they may use volume-to-weight conversion factors or report tonnages weighed at the receiving facility.

(D) If a reporting entity sells or transfers materials, other than solid waste, based on volume, then they may use material-specific volume-to-weight conversion factors to estimate tons.

(E) When required by subsection (h), a reporting entity who sends material to another reporting entity with a different RDRS number located at the same site using a conveyance system without scales, shall estimate and report tonnages transferred by using volume-to weight-conversion factors, flow rates, or belt scales.

(A) The disposal facility does not have access to scales and does not receive more than 4,000 tons of solid waste per year from contract haulers, not including disaster debris.

(B) The disposal facility is located in an area prone to inclement weather for three or more months of the year, which does not allow for the adequate operation and maintenance of scales.

(C) The disposal facility is so remote that the availability of an electric utility to power the scales is prohibitive.

(A) For material sent to a transfer/processor or disposal facility, report pursuant to subsection (j)(1).

(B) For material sent to a recycler or composter, report pursuant to subsection (j)(6).

(A) Solid waste, which requires jurisdiction of origin, source sector, and RDRS number and contact information of the sending facility or operation, if applicable.

(B) Disaster debris, which requires RDRS number and contact information of the sending facility or operation, if applicable.

(C) Designated waste, which requires RDRS number and contact information of the sending facility or operation, if applicable.

(D) Green material for potential beneficial reuse, which requires jurisdiction of origin and RDRS number and contact information of the sending facility or operation, if applicable.

(E) Non-green material for potential beneficial reuse, which requires material type and RDRS number and contact information of the sending facility or operation, if applicable.

(A) If residual solid waste is generated from tons accepted as solid waste, or if residual green material for potential beneficial reuse is generated from tons accepted as green material for beneficial reuse, then the residual tons shall be reported as part of the original accepted tonnage.

(B) If the materials are sent as one material stream, then categorize the accepted materials into the stream of the tons sent. For example, if residential curbside green waste is accepted for the explicit purpose of conversion into “processed green material” for potential beneficial reuse, as defined in paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of section 20690 of Title 27 of the California Code of Regulations, and no residuals are generated, then categorize this inflow stream as green material for potential beneficial reuse.

(C) If the processing or sorting generates two or more streams, then, except as described in subparagraph (D), categorize the accepted materials into the most representative stream type, excluding recycling and composting from the tonnage. For example, if a reporting entity accepts a mixed material stream, which is segregated into 75 percent non-green material for potential beneficial reuse and 25 percent recycling by weight, then the reporting entity shall report accepting non-green material for potential beneficial reuse, ignoring the tons contributed by the recycling.

(D) If the processing or sorting generates solid waste or green material for potential beneficial reuse, then:

(A) Contract agreements,

(B) Billing records for customers,

(C) Company dispatcher records of hauling routes,

(D) An alternative method approved by the Department pursuant to subdivision (m).

(A) If the facility received the materials from a contract hauler, then the facility shall use the collection method as provided by the contract hauler in 18815.9(l)(1).

(B) If the facility received the materials from a reporting entity other than a contract hauler, then the facility shall assign the collection method as the type of reporting entity from which the tons were received.

(C) If the facility received the materials from a generator, then the facility shall determine the collection method as follows:

(D) If the facility generated the materials through a recycling or composting facility or operation that is reporting under the same RDRS registration number as the reporting facility, then determine collection method pursuant to subparagraph (A), (B), or (C), based on how the recycler or composter obtained the materials.

(E) If the facility generated the materials through on-site activities, excluding recycling or composting facilities reporting under the same RDRS registration number as the reporting facility, then assign collection method as the type of generating facility.

(A) The entire load shall be assigned to the most aggregated collection method that applies to the load. For example, if a load is a mixture of residential 1-bin and 2-bin recycling, then the load would be assigned to residential 1-bin recycling. If a load is a mixture of solid waste and other materials, then the load shall be assigned to a solid waste material stream collection method.

(B) The portion of the load from each source sector shall be estimated using the methods described in subdivision (c). If the source sector portions cannot be estimated, then the entire load shall be assigned to the self-haul sector, unless the reporting entity determines that the load is 50 percent or more of a single sector, in which case that sector shall apply.
