BACKGROUND
Each year, the City of Santa Clarita (City) applies for grant funding through the California
Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery City/County Payment Program (CalRecycle
Payment Program) for the collection of recyclable beverage containers, used motor oil, and used
oil filters. On average, the City has received approximately $48,000 for beverage recycling and
is approved for approximately $58,000 towards used motor oil recycling.
To date, the CalRecycle Payment Program funds have assisted the City in purchasing 53
BigBelly solar trash compactors that facilitated the collection of more than 3,000 pounds of used
bottles and cans. Previously, funds have been used to implement the City's Used Oil Collection
Program that has successfully recycled 28,005 gallons of used motor oil and 169 used oil filters
through the City's 31 certified collection sites.
This program aids the City in fulfilling the goals of the Santa Clarita 2020, the City's five-year
strategic plan, including achieving the state goal of increasing solid waste diversion to 75 percent

and implementing the Stormwater Enhanced Watershed Management Plan. The proper collection
of used motor oil helps protect water quality and maintain compliance with the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit.

body to pass a resolution authorizing submittal of grant applications. The adoption of this
resolution by the City Council provides the City Manager or designee the authorization to

payment for grants, including the Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program
and the Used Oil Payment Program.
