TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE AZUSA UTILITY
BOARD
FROM: GEORGE F. MORROW,DIRECTOR OF UTILITIES
DATE: MAY 27, 2014
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING PARTICIPATION IN THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF RESOURCES RECYCLING AND RECOVERY USED
OIL PAYMENT PROGRAM
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Utility Board adopt Resolution No. UB-4-14 approving the City's
continued participation in the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery
(CalRecycle) Used Oil Payment Program (OPP) and designation of the Utilities Administrative
and Financial Services Manager as the signature authority for the program.
BACKGROUND
In compliance with the California Oil Recycling Enhancement Act since its inception in 1991,
the City of Azusa continues to maintain a year-round used oil recycling program, which is
administered by a consultant, Huls Environmental, and funded by a used oil recycling block
grant from CalRecyle (formerly California Integrated Waste Management Board). The program
being carried out in Azusa consists of the City supplying used oil drain pans to participating used
oil collection centers, which currently includes Dick's Auto Supply, Jiffy Lube, 0' Reilly Auto
Parts,Valero Gas Station,and Y Tires, and advertising to promote drop off of used oil and filters
at these centers.
In October 2009, former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed SB 546 into law which made
significant changes to the program effective January 1, 2010 and it was renamed Oil Payment
Program (OPP). The Utility Board adopted Resolution No. 10-C38 at its June 28, 2010 meeting
to continue its participation in the program.
Due to a change in the job title of signature authority from Assistant to the Director of Utilities to
Utilities Administrative and Financial Services Manager, CalRecycle requires updating the
resolution to reflect the change. The signature authority is authorized and empowered to execute
