SB 875: Public resources.
- Session Year: 2017-2018
- House: Senate
- Latest Version Date: 2018-09-17
(1)Existing law provides a process for the establishment of recreation and park districts, which includes certain provisions of the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000, and provides that a recreation and park district may organize, promote, conduct, and advertise programs of community recreation, establish systems of recreation and recreation facilities, and acquire, construct, improve, maintain, and operate recreation facilities. Existing law enumerates the powers and duties of recreation and park districts.
Existing law authorizes the establishment of the Lower Los Angeles River Recreation and Park District, by petition or resolution submitted to the Los Angeles County Local Agency Formation Commission before January 1, 2019, subject to the existing laws governing recreation and park districts, including their formation, except as provided.
This bill would instead require a petition or resolution to be submitted to establish the Lower Los Angeles River Recreation and Park District prior to January 1, 2021.
(2)The California Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction Act, which is administered by the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery, is established to promote beverage container recycling and provides for the payment, collection, and distribution of certain payments and fees based on minimum refund values established for beverage containers.
The act requires the department to pay a market development payment to a reclaimer, as defined, for empty plastic beverage containers that have been collected for recycling in the state, and that the reclaimer washes and processes into flake, pellet, sheet, or any other form that is then usable as input for the manufacture of new plastic products, as defined, by product manufacturers in the state. The act also requires the department to pay a market development payment to a product manufacturer, as defined, for plastic flake, pellet, sheet, or any other form of plastic purchased from a reclaimer and used by that product manufacturer to manufacture a plastic product in the state.
The act authorizes up to $5,000,000 to be expended for market development payments to reclaimers or product manufacturers for the activities described above that occurred during the period from January 1, 2018, to June 30, 2018, inclusive.
This bill would require the department to pay market development payments to a reclaimer that uses the services of a third party to process the empty plastic beverage containers into a form usable for the manufacture of new plastic products and to a product manufacturer that uses the services of a third party to process the plastic purchased from a reclaimer in manufacturing the plastic product. The bill would clarify that the moneys described above are not available for market development payments to these additional product manufacturers. By changing the purposes for which continuously appropriated moneys may be expended, this bill would make an appropriation.
(3)Existing law, effective January 1, 2019, requires each urban retail water supplier to calculate its urban water use objective no later than November 1, 2023, and by November 1 every year thereafter, as provided. Existing law authorizes an urban retail water supplier that delivers water from a groundwater basin, reservoir, or other source that is augmented by potable reuse water to adjust its urban water use objective by a bonus incentive calculated based on the volume of its potable reuse delivered to residential water users and certain landscape areas, on an acre-foot basis. Existing law prohibits the bonus incentive from exceeding 15% of the urban retail water suppliers urban water use objective for any potable reuse water produced at an existing facility, or 10% of the urban retail water suppliers urban water use objective for any potable reuse water produced at any other facility. Existing law defines existing facility for these purposes.
This bill would provide that existing facility also includes the North City Project, phase one of the Pure Water San Diego Program, for those purposes.
(4)Existing law establishes a delta levee maintenance program pursuant to which a local agency may request reimbursement for costs incurred in connection with the maintenance or improvement of defined project or nonproject levees in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Existing law authorizes the Central Valley Flood Protection Board to provide funds to an eligible local agency under this program in the form of an advance in an amount that does not exceed 75% of the estimated state share. Under existing law, an agreement between a local agency and the board to perform maintenance and approval work is required to provide that no advance is to be made until the applicant has incurred costs averaging $1,000 per mile of levee. Existing law requires the Department of Water Resources, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to reimburse an eligible local agency for not more than 75% of any costs that are incurred per mile of project or nonproject levee if the entire cost incurred per mile is either more than $2,500 for a levee in an urban area, as defined, or more than $1,000 for a levee in a rural area.
This bill would instead require the agreement to provide that no advance is to be made until the applicant has incurred costs consistent with the departments above-described reimbursement criteria.
(5)This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the Lower Los Angeles River Recreation and Park District.
(6)This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the North City Project, phase one of the Pure Water San Diego Program.
(7)This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as a bill providing for appropriations related to the Budget Bill.
