California's Senate Bill 1383 is the new policy that's in the process of changing all we know and understand about municipal solid waste. SB 1383 paves the way for California to move towards material management practices, and away from solid waste management.

Some questions arise with SB 1383:
-Are we really ready to make the leap? Is your community ready?
-Do you have adequate staff?
-Do your collection agreements include programs that meet the requirements of SB 1383?
-Do you have sufficient organics disposal and food recovery infrastructure?
-How will you educate your businesses and residents about the new policies?
-What are your risks of fines?

Judi Gregory and Megan Knize will discuss how SB 1383 will influence the direction of waste management throughout the state of California.
