INTRODUCTION
This summary report of the Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Program for fiscal year (FY)
2019/20 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.
BACKGROUND
In 1995, it was recognized and resolved by all central Contra Costa County cities', the Central
Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority, Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (Central San),
and co-sponsor Mt. View Sanitary District (MVSD) that mobile HHW collection events were
not efficient or convenient, and that a permanent HHW collection facility was needed. In 1997,
Central San opened the first permanent HHW facility in Contra Costa County with its service
agreement partners MVSD, and cities of Clayton, Concord, and San Ramon.
POLLUTION PREVENTION
Central San's core function is to operate a municipal wastewater collection system and a
53.8-million-gallons-per-day-rated treatment plant (plant). The wastewater collection system
covers 145 square miles and includes approximately 1,500 miles of sewer pipes. In
FY 2019/20, the plant treated nearly 12 billion gallons of wastewater.
MVSD's plant serves an estimated population of 21,900 with approximately 270 businesses
in its 4.7 square mile service area, which is served by 73 miles of sewer collection system.
MVSD reclaims approximately 450 million gallons of water for 21 acres of wetland habitat
every year. Both Central San's and MVSD's plants are designed to treat and prevent
biological wastes from entering our waterways, however chemicals must be removed prior to
entering the plants in order to keep the biological treatment train healthy. This is how HHW
collection benefits Central San and MVSD. Pollution prevention at the source ensures that
our plants are operating at peak efficiency and eliminates chemical wastes from flowing
through treatment processes that are designed specifically for human waste.

RESIDENTIAL PARTICIPATION
The HHW Collection Program is completing its 23rd year of operation. The HHW Program
serves all of central Contra Costa County, which is comprised of 194,670 households, with a
population of approximately 535,000. Program participation has increased steadily from the
7.8 percent of households served during the opening year in 1997/98, up to as much as 18.4
percent in FY 2018/19. In FY 2019/20, that figure fell to 14.0 percent due to the three-month
closure from March 16th to June 15th, 2020, during shelter-in-place orders resulting from the
COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to closing in March, the program was on track to exceed the
previous year's participation by more than 9 percent.
Figure RP-1 shows HHW program participation on a monthly basis. Participation ranged
between 1,616 cars in December and 3,911 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. This does not
account for the lower numbers during the closure from March to June.

QUANTITIES OF WASTES COLLECTED
The HHW Collection Program disposed or recycled 1,826,862 pounds of waste during FY
2018/19. This is about 388,000 pounds less than last year. With the addition of the 253,102
pounds of HHW collected, separated, and given to the public for reuse, 1,691,566 pounds of
hazardous waste was collected and processed through the HHW Collection Facility (see
Table WC-1). An average of about 61 pounds of HHW per car was dropped off by 27,818
customers (27,493 residents, 247 small business appointments, and 78 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 5 through 12.
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 the same as last year at 61
pounds, as shown in 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 disposal by
accepting all types of mercury, including: 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, more than 7,150
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. A little over 50 pounds of
elemental mercury contained in these types of wastes was collected through the HHW
program in FY 2019/20.

Pharmaceutical Collection Program
Another way the HHW Program contributes to Central San's P2 program is by collecting
unwanted or 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.
Through November 2019, Central San operated 13 collection sites in all 11 cities and towns
in our service area. In December 2019, the collection site in San Ramon ended service with
our program and began collection through the Contra Costa Safe Drug Disposal Ordinance

(CCSDDO), a manufacturer-paid collection program, that began in 2018. 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.
Since the pharmaceutical program began in 2009, over 144,000 pounds of unwanted or
expired medications have been collected and properly disposed by incineration. In FY
2019/20, 9,118 pounds were collected at a cost of $17,775. The decrease in the amount of
medications collected can be attributed to 1) the closure of the majority of the collection sites
during the COVID-19 shelter-in-place orders from March to June 2020, and 2) the increased
number of collection locations in the HHW service area that are associated with the CCSDDO
mentioned above. As of the printing of this report, there are 30 CCSDDO sites in the HHW
service area, adding the 12 Central San collection sites, there are a total of 42 sites available.

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 AB 939, 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 2019/20 is outlined below.
Reused
The amount of reusable products given away accounted for roughly 15 percent of the total
amount of waste collected by the HHW program. Over 12,000 Reuse Program participants
were given over 253,000 pounds of free reusable products during FY 2019/20. The estimated
cost savings from the Reuse Program is $76,902, which includes roughly $15,900 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 2019/20, a total of 302,458 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
shows the waste streams and quantities of wastes diverted from landfill.

SMALL BUSINESS PROGRAM
An important component of the HHW 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 S13-1 and S13-2.
Revenue collected from small businesses is for hazardous waste disposal or recycling only
and includes 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 Environmental Compliance 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 social media and newsletters to provide public education and promotion of the
HHW program and its associated Pharmaceutical Disposal Program. With this promotional
strategy, about 6.6 percent of the total residential participants during FY 2019/20 were first-
time customers, and the remaining 93.4 percent were repeat customers.

REVENUE AND EXPENSES
The HHW program expenses for FY 2019/20 totaled $2,780,910, which is a decrease of about
1 percent compared to last year. The decrease is attributed to COVID-19 closure of the facility
for three months between March and June 2020. Since the closure of the facility reduced
participation by more than 23 percent and operating costs were mostly flat, the operating cost
per car increased from $78 in FY 2019/20 to $99 in FY 2019/20. Operating costs remained
at somewhat normal levels, as staff worked mostly from home during the facility closure,
completing training, creating standard operation procedures, and developing reopening
plans. Daily inspections of the facility, hazardous waste in storage, and surrounding
roadways, kept illegal dumping to a minimum.
Figure RE-1 below, describes the operating cost per car (participant) since the inception of
the program.
Figure RE-2 on the following page, breaks down that cost by the five major expense
categories: labor, waste, materials, capital, and other.

Revenue and No Cost Waste Management
Revenue for the HHW Collection Facility included payments from other jurisdictions under
service agreements (MVSD, 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.

(PaintCare)
Total 1,081,936 $26,365 $368,000
Based on this list, Central San saved more than $368,000 in disposal and materials costs
and received over $26,000 in compensation for certain reclaimable wastes. In total, nearly
1,100,000 pounds or about 64% of the amount of waste collected 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 2019/20. Table RE-2 shows the amortization schedule of all capital
expenditures since the HHW Facility construction was completed in 1997.
