San Francisco Mandatory Recycling and Composting Ordinance (No. 100-09)

Urban Farm DB summary

This Wikipedia article covers San Francisco's Mandatory Recycling and Composting Ordinance (No. 100-09), passed by the Board of Supervisors in 2009 and described as the first US municipal ordinance to universally require source separation of all organic material. By August 2010 the city reached a 77% waste diversion rate, and composting increased 45% after the ordinance took effect. An earlier 1999 pilot, the 'Fantastic Three' programme, achieved over 90% diversion among participants within seven months. The ordinance polled at 85% support before passing; maximum fines are $100 for single-family homes and $1,000 for large businesses.
