California's Organic Waste Recycling Mandate

Working Together For Our Future

The Resource Recovery Coalition of California represents more than 34 refuse and recycling companies, operating material recovery facilities, transfer stations, green waste composting facilities, construction and demolition facilities and a growing number of anaerobic digestion (AD) facilities producing “net negative” fuel for solid waste/recycling trucks, renewable natural gas for pipeline use and the production of electricity.

RRCC members are working to achieve California’s goal of diverting 75% of the state’s waste from landfills by the year 2020, resulting in a GHG reduction of over 150 MMTCO2 by that date. We also support the goals of SB 1383 (Lara), ultimately diverting a target of 75% of our organics from landfills by 2025, to help achieve an overall reduction in methane by 40% below 2014 levels by 2030.

We are committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by diverting organics from landfills through the use of low-carbon fuels, improved air quality, the production of renewable energy, and the use of compostable materials to improve the health and resilience of California soils. RRCC is working together for our future.
