2012 Davis Integrated Waste Management Plan Some successful examples are out there, such as Urban Ore, a 3 acre privately run resource recovery park located at a transfer station in Berkeley, the Monterey Recovery Park in Marina, California, operated by the Monterey Regional Waste Management District (MRWMD) and the 53-acre San Leandro RR Park at the Davis Street Transfer Station in San Leandro. The 2010 Davis Climate Action Adaptation Plan 2015 Objective 2 (Recover 75% of all waste generated) listed “Create a City salvage yard for the City to promote reuse of goods and reduce consumption, expanding on existing program with extended hours of operation and increased seasonal availability based on the UC Davis schedule” as a priority II item. At the City of Davis Climate Action Team Community Forum on June 26, 2008, all attendees were asked to provide feedback and comment on several lists of action items to reduce carbon emissions. Attendees were asked to choose five consumption and waste reduction actions from a list of 24 that they would be most willing to support. Attendees were also asked to indicate which five actions that they would not support. Action item W: Create a city salvage yard to promote reuse of goods received, received 40 votes of support and no votes of opposition. RRP’s usually are developed at landfills or transfer stations that offer waste disposal, composting, reuse and recycling. There isn’t an active landfill, transfer station or compost facility within the City of Davis. Per the current contract with the City, DWR does operate a recycling center on 2 nd Street that is open 24/7, and there are multiple reuse stores throughout the city. Within Yolo County, there is one compost facility, Northern Recycling Compost in Zamora. The YCCL is the only active landfill in the County and is in the early stages of developing a compost facility. A city-operated reuse and recovery park would put the city in direct competition with stores in Davis that sell used items (including several non-profits), the YCCL, DWR and the Zamora compost facility. City staff time to set up and run a RRP would be considerable. There isn’t a current location in town that would be large enough and that would make sense for such a facility. The chart below compares current facilities/properties that offer different services or currently have certain processes in operation. TABLE 11-2 OPTIONS FOR A RESOURCE RECOVERY PARK DRAFT Potential Location Reuse Recycling Compost Manufacturing Retail Haz Waste YCCL Yes Yes Maybe No Maybe Yes DWR Recycling Center No Yes No No No No City Property No No No No No No Local Thrift Store Yes Yes/No No No Yes No The YCCL has a reuse area for certain hazardous wastes (such as paint, fertilizers, etc.) that are recovered from the HHW facility. These materials are available to County residents and businesses at no cost during HHW drop off days. The YCCL has extensive recycling options for many different items (see section 11.1 for details). The landfill is a transfer site for C&D materials and other wastes and has a permanent hazardous waste collection facility. As mentioned in section 4.3.1 and 11.1, the YCCL is exploring the possibility of opening composting and reuse facilities. The landfill does not offer manufacturing services. Page | 11-98
2012 Davis Integrated Waste Management Plan The DWR recycling Center does offer recycling, but no other amenities of a RRP. There isn’t a City property that currently offers any of the amenities of a RRP. Local thrift stores do offer reuse and retail services. A few offer recycling of e-waste and other items as well, but none are transfer centers or have any other RRP amenities. The best option would be to support Yolo County in developing a RRP at the YCCL. 12 Implementation Schedule This plan identifies a number of alternatives to the solid waste program to meet the stated goals of this plan. The Natural Resources Commission and City Council will need to weigh in on these alternatives, prioritize them, and City Council must give direction to staff before these can be implemented. All the suggested alternatives in this plan are summarized in Table 12-1 below. Each alternative is listed in Table 12-1 below, along with whether or not it meets any of the five goals of this plan. Sections are also included to compare the alternatives impacts on recycling program staff and budget. The staff time required is an estimate based on the overall time it would take to implement and monitor the alternative. The cost of each alternative does not include the cost of staff time, but of supplies, materials and outreach required to develop, implement, and continue each alternative. The staff suggested priority given to each alternative is assigned based on the alternatives ability to meet the plans goals, the staff time required and the cost. DRAFT Page | 12-99
