2012 Davis Integrated Waste Management Plan 6. Did you receive enough educational information about collecting food scraps? Yes—8 No—2 7. What do you think are the most compelling reasons that businesses would have for not participating in this pilot program? No time to train staff to sort food scraps—2 Concern about potential odors and mess—6 Concern for contamination in the food scrap cart—1 Cost—7 No space for carts—3 Not wanting to add to their existing work load—1 Additional Comments Received: On item 7 these are the reasons given to me when I try to recruit new business to the pilot (cost, no space for carts). It has gone wonderfully for our restaurant. So far we have had no noticeable obnoxious odors from our food cart. It’s too bad a residential food scrap collection probably is not logistically possible. I feel guilty not separating food scraps at home. The program is more expensive than regular garbage! We were going to cancel until we worked something out. Also, train employees that not all compostable bags are small and green! Overall a very promising program! This is a program that makes sense and once businesses are involved they will probably wonder why they didn’t participate sooner. The most compelling reasons for schools/business to participate in this program are the environmental and financial benefits. The monthly fee could be the same as another regular trash pick-up, but you know that you are reducing the amount of trash sent to the landfills. This is an important message that you can advertise to your customers, and customers in Davis care about these kinds of things. It might take some personnel training at the beginning, but in our experience the benefits surpassed the challenges! We reduced from 2 to 1 trash cans a day, and we have two shifts of 250 people here. We all feel very proud that we are contributing to reduce the amount of trash sent to the landfills; that the food scraps are being composted and that means reuse the resources. Cost was the main reason that we could no longer continue with the program. DRAFT Page | R-224
