INTRODUCTION
This summary report of the Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Program for fiscal year (FY)
2016/17 presents the program participation levels, an analysis of the hazardous waste
delivered to the facility, and the costs associated with the program. The program's high level
of participation and the amount of hazardous waste collected and properly managed each
year, demonstrates the benefits to both public health and the environment.
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's (Central San) core function is to operate a municipal
wastewater collection system and a 53.8 -million -gallons -per -day -rated treatment plant.
Central San collects, treats, recycles, and disposes of wastewater from approximately
481,000 residents of central Contra Costa County, including all the partners and participants
in the HHW Collection Facility (with the exception of those who discharge to Mt. View Sanitary
District (MVSD) (see below) and about 14,000 residents in southern San Ramon, whose
wastewater flows to Dublin -San Ramon Services District). The wastewater collection area
covers 145 square miles and includes approximately 1,500 miles of sewer pipes. In
FY 2016/17, the treatment plant treated nearly 12 billion gallons of wastewater. Of that,
600 million gallons of treated effluent were recycled and distributed for landscape irrigation
and in -plant uses. The remaining treated effluent is discharged via a deep -water outfall to
Suisun Bay.
MVSD serves an estimated population of 21,900 with approximately 270 businesses in its 4.7
square mile service area. MVSD owns and operates a 79 -mile sewer collection system with
four pump stations and an advanced secondary treatment plant. MVSD reclaims
approximately 440 million gallons of water for 21 acres of wetland habitat every year.

RESIDENTIAL PARTICIPATION
The Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Program is completing its 20th year of
operation. The HHW Program serves all of the central Contra Costa County, which is
comprised of 194,300 households, with a population of approximately 516,000. The number
of HHW program service area households grew by over 14 percent over the past 20 years.
Program participation has also increased steadily from the 7.8 percent of households served
during the opening year in 1997/98 to nearly 17 percent in FY 2016/17.
Figure RP -1 shows HHW program participation on a monthly basis. Participation ranged
between 1,541 cars in December and 3,257 cars in July. The lower participation during the
winter months is attributed to fewer operating days due to the holidays, and seasonal
fluctuations in participation presumably due to more inclement weather.

3 Hazardous waste from outside of the service area was accepted and processed for one of two reasons: 1) employees from
Central San and MVSD who live outside of the service area are also eligible for HHW program participation, or 2) household
hazardous waste generated outside the service area that is deemed unsafe for further transport is accepted and processed
as a safe and responsible business practice.
4 The number of cars outside of the service area was not included in the participation percentage.

SAN RAMON DOOR-TO-DOOR COLLECTION PROGRAM
Since 2011, when the City of San Ramon elected to sponsor their own Door -to -Door (DTD)
HHW collection program, we have tracked their usage with the HHW facility's in order to show
overall participation and proper waste management within the Central San. Table SR -1 below
describes the participation, waste volumes, and cost that San Ramon reported, compared to
HHW facility's usage figures for San Ramon.
San Ramon reported that their DTD program served 1,085 participants and collected a total
of 97,385 pounds of waste (45,351 pounds were electronic waste) at a cost of $183,600 in
FY 2016/17. Since e -waste is not accepted by Central San's program, it was subtracted in
the table, however all the participants will be assumed to have had both e -waste and HHW
picked up. The costs will also remain, as those are fixed costs for each resident.

QUANTITIES OF WASTES COLLECTED
The HHW Collection Program disposed or recycled 1,730,274 pounds of waste during FY
2016/17. This is about 2,500 pounds more than last year. With the addition of the 404,681
pounds of HHW collected, separated, and given to the public for reuse, 2,134,955 pounds of
hazardous waste was collected and processed through the HHW Collection Facility (see
Table WC -1). An average of about 65 pounds of HHW per car was dropped off by 33,037
customers (32,634 residents, 303 small business appointments, and 100 retail partnership
drop offs). The wastes were transported from the HHW Collection Facility for reuse, recycling,
fuel blending, incineration, treatment, or landfill. Data specific to the Reuse Room or other
waste management activities is presented on pages 13 and 9 respectively.
The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) requires a
Form 303 report each fiscal year (July through June) summarizing the amount, the types of
hazardous waste processed and a breakdown of the waste management method for each
type of hazardous waste collected. It is included in Appendix I.
The average weight of hazardous waste collected per car was nearly unchanged from last
year at 64.6 pounds. See Figure WC -1.

POLLUTION PREVENTION EFFORTS
Central San's Pollution Prevention (P2) Program has evolved over the years to become an
important component of our mission, which specifically includes P2 and reflects the growing
importance of P2 for regulatory compliance. Central San is required to monitor and prevent
certain pollutants from entering the influent wastewater. The HHW Program helps prevent
wastes from reaching the sewer, and tracks the amount of waste that was diverted.
Mercury Collection Program
The HHW program facilitates Central San's promotion of proper mercury (Hg) disposal by
accepting elemental mercury, mercury -containing devices (e.g., fluorescent bulbs, batteries,
mercury switches, and mercury thermometers), and mercury -containing compounds (paints
and pesticides containing mercury).
Since the beginning of the mercury thermometer exchange program in 1999, nearly 6,200
mercury thermometers have been collected and exchanged for non -mercury types.
Table PP -1 describes the types of mercury -containing wastes that are tracked by HHW staff.
This system closely estimates the quantities of mercury contained in fluorescent lamps,
thermometers, thermostats, switches and button -cell batteries. Over 58 pounds (Lbs.) of
mercury contained in these types of wastes was collected through the HHW program in FY
2016/17.

Pharmaceutical Collection Program
Another way the HHW Program contributes to Central San's P2 program is by collecting
unused, unwanted, and expired pharmaceuticals from residents. Pharmaceuticals can be a
threat to our bay, rivers, and creeks as some of the compounds they contain cannot be
entirely treated or removed by wastewater treatment plants. Pharmaceuticals can enter the
sewer system by either excretion from the body or by customers dumping them down the
drain. Since we cannot prevent unmetabolized medications from entering the treatment plant,
we established a collection and disposal program for unwanted pharmaceuticals.
Central San operates 13 collection sites in all 11 cities and towns in our service area. Table
PP -3 describes the amount of pharmaceuticals collected by each site and the cost of
collection and disposal.

*The variation in the average cost per pound is caused by the amount of packaging (jars, paper, cardboard,
etc.) included in the collection bins. Bags for consolidating pills are offered at most collection sites, but are
not often used. The fullness of the container when it is picked up, also affects the cost/Ib.
** Slightly higher by 1 pound due to rounding.
Since the pharmaceutical program began in 2009, over 102,500 pounds of unwanted or
expired medications have been collected and properly disposed by incineration. In FY
2016/17, more than 16,700 pounds of unwanted prescribed, non -prescribed, and over-the-
counter medications were collected at a cost of $31,492.

WASTES DIVERTED FROM SEWER AND LANDFILL DISPOSAL
The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939) requires diversion of
HHW from the municipal solid waste stream. AB 939 established a waste management
hierarchy to minimize the amount of HHW sent to landfills through reduction, reuse, recycling,
treatment, or incineration (fuel blending or destructive incineration), and diverts a minimum of
50 percent of solid waste from being landfilled. The emphasis is on reduction, reuse, and
recycling whenever possible.
As a water quality agency, diverting hazardous waste from the sewers and storm drains is
equally important. Although Central San's HHW Program is not required to comply with the
requirements of AB939, Central San's waste management strategy mirrors AB 939,
prioritizing reduction, reuse, recycling, and fuel blending, in that order, to the greatest extent
feasible. All of which divert these wastes from being landfilled. The HHW program's progress
toward sewer and landfill diversion for FY 2016/17 is outlined below.
Reused
The amount of reusable products given away accounted for roughly 19 percent of the total
amount of waste collected by the HHW Program. Over 20,000 Reuse Program participants
were given over 404,000 pounds of free reusable products during FY 2016/17. The estimated
cost savings from the Reuse Program is $137,600, which includes roughly $30,000 of
compensation from PaintCare for each gallon of reusable PaintCare product given away.
Recycled
The types of waste recycled at off-site facilities include latex paint, used motor oil/filters,
antifreeze, car batteries, propane cylinders, fluorescent lamps, lead (scrap metal), mercury,
household batteries, printer cartridges, and even home -generated cooking oil. Many of these
recyclable waste streams are rebated or free for recycling.
Fuel Blended (Waste Derived Fuel)
In FY 2016/17, a total of 342,351 pounds of oil-based paint and other flammable liquids
(gasoline, paint thinners, etc.) was blended with other flammable hazardous wastes and used
as a fuel source to make Portland cement. While fuel blending is lower in the waste
management hierarchy than recycling, it is still a beneficial use that avoids using fossil fuels
and prevents destructive incineration, treatment, or Class I landfill disposal. Table WD -1 on
the next page shows the waste streams and quantities of wastes diverted from landfill.

SMALL BUSINESS PROGRAM
An important component of the HHW Collection Program is the collection of hazardous
wastes from small businesses that qualify as "Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity
Generators" (CESQG) under Federal and State hazardous waste management laws. This
program is intended to offer small businesses a cost-effective and convenient hazardous
waste disposal option. Program statistics are included below in tables SB -1 and SB -2.
Revenue collected from small businesses is for hazardous waste disposal or recycling only
and an administration fee of $20 per appointment. Small business participation has been
known to fluctuate from year to year as does the revenue collected. See Appendix III for the
current CESQG disposal charges.
CESQG outreach pieces are on-going advertising in local chamber of commerce publications,
Central San's Pipeline newsletter, MVSD's Mt. View Monitor newsletter, business trade fairs,
and word of mouth by Central San's Source Control Inspectors, as well as Contra Costa
County Hazmat Program inspectors, as they complete their field work auditing the operations
of eligible businesses.

PUBLIC EDUCATION AND OUTREACH
HHW program participation has steadily grown since the first year of operation. It is publicized
in each issue of the Central San Pipeline newsletter, which is mailed twice a year to more
than 156,000 Central San residential and business customers. Additionally, MVSD, the
Central Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority, and cities and organizations in the service area,
have used their newsletters to provide public education and promotion of the HHW program
and its associated Pharmaceutical Disposal Program. With this promotional strategy, about
7 percent of the total residential participants during FY 2016/17 were first-time customers,
and the remaining 93 percent were repeat customers.

FY 2016/17 REVENUE AND EXPENSES
The HHW Program expenses for FY 2016/17 totaled $2,651,168, which is an increase of
about 9.7 percent over last year. With the increase in overall cost the cost per car also
increased from $72 in FY 2015/16 to $80 in FY 2016/17. This increase in expenses can be
attributed to the following:
Central San Staff
• An HHW Technician I was hired in July 2016, filling the position of an HHW Technician
II that was promoted to Senior HHW Technician. The Senior HHW Technician position
became vacant when he transferred to the Environmental Compliance Section
permanently after completing a two-year provisional assignment for that Section. Staffing
losses temporarily reduced the department's overall expenses in the last two years for
salaries, benefits, and overhead. When the position was filled, those expenses began to
return.
• A Technician II level staffer has been on extended leave since January 2015. Temporary
staff have been used to offset some of the loss in productivity, but their salaries are less
and do not include benefits or overhead. If the HHW program was fully staffed in FY
2016/17, the cost would have been approximately $100,000 more than reported.
Billing
• Due to an inadvertent billing issue, a waste service invoice for $62,505 for June 2016
was not accrued in time for FY 2015/16. The invoice was paid in FY 2016/17, which
artificially increased the FY 2016/17 expenses by $62,505.
Table RE -1 presents a full summary of revenue and expenses for the HHW Collection Facility
for FY 2016/17.
Figure RE -1 below, describes the operating cost per car (participant), and Figure RE -2 breaks
down that cost by the five major expense categories: labor, waste, materials, capital, and
other.
Also below is Figure RE -3, which describes the operating cost per pound of waste collected.

Revenue and No Cost Waste Management
Revenue for the HHW Collection Facility included payments from other jurisdictions under
service agreements (Mt. View Sanitary District, City of Concord, City of Clayton, and City of
San Ramon) and charges to small businesses under the CESQG program. Also, staff is
diligent in seeking low cost/no cost management or revenue generating alternatives while
keeping safe and proper disposal in mind. Many of the wastes that are collected by the HHW
facility have market value or require manufacturers to manage and pay the cost of their
recycling, also known as Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).
The list below describes the revenue generating or no cost waste streams, how much was
collected, if Central San was paid for recycling, and the cost if Central San had to dispose of
the waste without compensation or EPR assistance.

Based on this list, Central San saved more than $436,000 in disposal costs. Of that total, over
$42,000 came as compensation for certain reclaimable wastes. In total, over 1,365,000
pounds or 79% of the amount of waste disposed of by the HHW program was managed at
no cost to Central San.
Amortization of Capital Expenditures
Amortization of Capital Expenditures is derived from the capital costs to build the collection
facility and all capital improvements amortized over 30 years. No capital expenditures were
added to the facility in FY 2016/17. Table RE -2 shows the amortization schedule of all capital
expenditures since the HHW Facility construction was completed in 1997.

Waste Volumes
The amount of waste collected by the HHW Program during the first year in operation topped
900,000 pounds. Twenty years later more than 2.1 million pounds of hazardous waste was collected
from residents and small businesses. Over the last ten years, the average amount of waste
collected has been just over 2 million pounds, so there has been sort of a maintenance level in the
amount of waste collected each year.
