Additional Details for Residents

A new organics and recycling law goes into effect January 2022

A new California State law, SB 1383, aims to keep food and other compostable materials (“organics”) out of landfills to reduce emissions that contribute to climate change. Under the law:

  • Edible food currently thrown away must be recovered and donated for people to eat,
  • The remaining organics must be collected for composting,
  • Recyclables must also be kept out of landfills.

Starting January 2022, SB 1383 regulations will be implemented in Unincorporated Contra Costa County under the Organic Waste Disposal Reduction Ordinance.

  • Multifamily property owners or managers of buildings with 5 or more units
