Organic waste as defined in the law includes the following material: food waste, green waste, landscape and pruning waste, nonhazardous waste, and food-soiled paper waste that is mixed in with food waste. These categories represent the largest subsets of organic waste that is currently disposed in California. How to Comply? To comply with AB1826 the law requires qualifying businesses and multi-family complexes to have a collection service. Emadco will provide assistance for on-site assessments, cost estimates, indoor containers and appropriate plastic bags for collecting organic material, staff training and promotional and educational materials. What happens to Organic Waste? The collected material is brought to a compost facility, where it is processed into nutrient rich compost for agricultural end-users. Why is Food Waste Recycling Important? On average, a restaurant disposes of more than 50 tons of organic waste per year. 76% of this waste is organic and can be recycled. However, if not hauled an processed by a permitted food waste recycling company like Emadco Disposal, 100% would be sent to a landfill.

Background and Overview In October of 2014 Governor Brown signed AB 1826 Chesbro (Chapter 727, Statutes of 2014) , requiring businesses to recycle their organic waste on and after April 1, 2016, depending on the amount of waste they generate per week. This law also requires that on and after January 1, 2016, local jurisdictions across the state implement an organic waste recycling program to divert organic waste generated by businesses, including multifamily residential dwellings that consist of five or more units (please note, however, that, multifamily dwellings are not required to have a food waste diversion program). Organic waste (also referred to as organics throughout this resource) means food waste, green waste, landscape and pruning waste, nonhazardous wood waste, and food-soiled paper waste that is mixed in with food waste. This law phases in the mandatory recycling of commercial organics over time, while also offering an exemption process for rural counties. In particular, the minimum threshold of organic waste generation by businesses decreases over time, which means that an increasingly greater proportion of the commercial sector will be required to comply. Organic Waste Examples Green Waste Grass Clippings Leaves and Branches Flower and Hedge Trimmings Weeds Food Scraps Fruits and Vegetables Cheese and Dairy Meat, Bones, Poultry and Seafood Food-Soiled Paper Food-Stained Paper Napkins and Paper Kitchen Towels

Sharps Drop Off Emadco has a 24-hour sharps drop off location conveniently located at: 40287 Oak Park Way Oakhurst, CA 93644 Protect yourself, your neighbors and our workers by properly disposing of medical waste. Improper sharps disposal can affect janitors, maids, pest control workers, groundskeepers, waste management workers, and children or household pets among others. Roughly 25% to 45% of all facilities processing household trash (besides recycling) in California have workers hand-sorting recyclable material out of that trash. A single worker’s on-the-job needlestick can mean weeks of taking drugs to prevent the spread of infection, with side effects including nausea, depression, and extreme fatigue as well as months waiting for expensive periodic tests to reveal whether they contracted life-threatening HIV/AIDs or hepatitis B or C. A 2008 study suggested that "nationwide each year 25%... or roughly 150,000 to 200,000 needlesticks occurred outside the health services industry for a cost of $38 million." The Law State law (H&SC §118286) makes it illegal to dispose of home-generated sharps waste (hypodermic needles, pen needles, intravenous needles, lancets, and other devices that are used to penetrate the skin for the delivery of medications) in the trash or recycling containers, and requires that all sharps waste be transported to a collection center in a sharps container approved by the local enforcement agency.
