Local Government Waste Tire Amnesty Grant for Fiscal Year 2026 through and including first half of Fiscal Year 2028

The City of San Diego is seeking to secure grant funding from CalRecycle to operate a waste tire amnesty program from Fiscal Year 2026 through the first half of Fiscal Year 2028, enabling residents to drop off used tires at a collection facility adjacent to the Miramar Landfill at 5180 Convoy Street, San Diego, CA 92111. The initiative is authorized under the Mayor’s authority or his designated representative to submit the grant application, with the Environmental Services Department responsible for managing program operations and fund expenditures. The project is categorized as exempt under California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Sections 15301 and 15308, affirming that it involves routine maintenance and environmental protection activities without physical expansion or new construction. No contract value, pricing details, or financial estimates are disclosed in the available materials, as this document represents a pre-application forecast aligned with environmental compliance filings rather than a finalized financial agreement. Key contacts include Edgar Ramirez Manriquez of the City Planning Department as the primary point of contact and Franklin Coopersmith of the Environmental Services Department in a support role, though no formal Contracting Officer’s Representative, Technical Representative, or Procurement Contracting Officer roles are officially designated. The submission process requires a certified Notice of Exemption and, if applicable, proof of prior fee payment, but no standardized federal contract clauses, solicitation numbers, invoicing systems, accounting codes, or procurement evaluation criteria are specified, reflecting its nature as a state-funded environmental grant rather than a federal procurement contract. All activities are conducted locally, with acceptance of materials occurring at the Miramar Landfill facility and administrative oversight handled through the City’s Environmental Services Department.
