Purpose:

These grants are awarded only to LEAs and regional LEAs that are certified by CalRecycle pursuant to Title 4, California Code of regulations (CCR), Chapter 5, Article 2.1 and LEA Certificate Requirements.

Description:

The program offers non-competitive grants to assist LEAs in implementing their solid waste facilities permit and inspection programs. Annual funding for this Program cannot exceed $1,500,000. Of this amount, $96,000 is allocated for CalRecycle’s LEA training and outreach activities; and the remaining $1,404,000 is distributed among grant applicants according to the Criteria and Process.
