Solid Waste Tipping Fees, Maximum Franchised Collection Rates, and New Cuyama Parcel Fees for FY 2026/27 - All Supervisorial DistrictsThe Santa Barbara County Public Works Department, Resource Recovery and Waste Management Division, is establishing fee schedules for solid waste handling and disposal at its operated facilities—landfill, transfer stations, and the Community Hazardous Waste Center—for Fiscal Year 2026/27, effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. This action includes an increase in tipping fees to $203.45 per ton at the Taijquas Landfill, an average 4.09% increase across most waste handling fees, a 3.67% average increase in maximum franchised collection rates for unincorporated areas divided into five zones, and a 3.03% increase for hazardous waste services at UCSB, all designed to cover operational costs, debt service, regulatory compliance, and closure/post-closure obligations without expanding system capacity. New Cuyama parcel fees remain unchanged for the fiscal year but are under review for future adjustment. The fee adjustments are administratively adopted under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) exemption specified in Section 15273(a)(1), (2), and (4), which permits routine rate changes for cost recovery without requiring a full environmental impact report, relying on prior environmental reviews for infrastructure projects. The process is not a procurement contract but a regulatory resolution initiated by the County, with adoption formalized through filing of a Notice of Exemption and supporting documentation at the County Clerk of the Board of Supervisors. Payment for environmental processing fees is collected at the time of filing via cash, check, or credit, though no formal invoicing system, payment office, or accounting codes such as TAS or ACRN are established for this action. No contractors are engaged; the County itself administers services and enforces fee compliance through its public facility operations. There are no contract clauses, delivery terms, inspection criteria, or award evaluation factors typical of federal procurement, and no solicitations, unique entity identifiers, or socioeconomic certifications apply because this is a public agency’s internal fee-setting action under state environmental law. The primary point of contact for inquiries is John Viggianelli, Engineering Environmental Planner, with additional support from Jeanette Gonzales-Knight, Deputy Director.

FY 2026-2027 Tax Roll of Delinquent Solid Waste Service ChargesThe City of Banning is preparing to include delinquent residential solid waste service charges on the Riverside County property tax roll for fiscal year 2026-2027, in accordance with its Solid Waste Franchise Agreement, Banning Municipal Code Chapter 8.28, and California Health and Safety Code Section 5470 et seq. This administrative action enables the city to recover unpaid fees by attaching them to property tax bills, ensuring more consistent and enforceable collection without requiring physical changes or environmental impact. The process is designed to support the sustainability of the city’s waste management services by securing revenue from residential customers who have outstanding balances. The initiative is managed through the City of Banning’s Office of Public Works and Planning, with primary contact points being Senior Planner Mary L. Yaryan and Director of Public Works Arturo Vela. The action is not a procurement or competitive solicitation, and no formal bidding or set-aside applies. It is a non-physical, administrative measure intended solely to improve financial accountability and service funding. The placement on the tax roll will occur within Riverside County, with all property located in the 92220 ZIP code area subject to the charge. The notice was posted on July 10, 2026, and the action reflects the city’s ongoing efforts to align its solid waste fee collection with state-approved mechanisms for municipal financing.

NOE Adoption of Resolution No. 26-1271 Levying Replenishment AssessmentThe Water Replenishment District of Southern California is preparing to levy a replenishment assessment on groundwater production within its jurisdiction for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027, as authorized under Section 60317 of the California Water Code. This action is part of an ongoing water resource management initiative and has been determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Guidelines 15261(a) because it constitutes a continuation of existing activities rather than a new or expanded project. The assessment is intended to support the District’s groundwater replenishment efforts and ensure sustainable aquifer management. The notice of adoption of Resolution No. 26-1271 serves as a formal announcement of this upcoming fiscal action and is published as a forecast to inform stakeholders. There is no solicitation number, contract value, or formal procurement documentation currently available, as this is a regulatory action rather than a competitive acquisition. The District’s point of contact for inquiries includes Arthella Vallarta, Associate Water Resources Planner, and Stephan Tucker, General Manager, both reachable via phone and email. The action will be administered locally within California, with no federal acquisition clauses or contract terms applicable, as this is a state-level water governance matter governed entirely by California statutory authority.

Amendment of MDAQMD Regulation III – FeesThe Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District proposes amendments to Rules 301, 302, and 303 to align fee structures with the escalating costs of regulatory operations, including the issuance of licenses and permits, enforcement investigations, inspections, audits, and administrative adjudication. A uniform 2 percent fee increase is intended to ensure financial sustainability by directly offsetting the rising expenses associated with personnel and operational demands across these programs.

AB 2851 Metal Shredding Fees Emergency RulemakingThe California Department of Toxic Substances Control is implementing emergency regulations to establish an annual fee for metal shredding facilities to fund the enforcement and oversight of new requirements under Assembly Bill 2851. These regulations amend existing code sections and introduce a new provision to ensure that fees collected are sufficient to cover the costs incurred by DTSC and the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment in mitigating offsite releases of hazardous waste and airborne contaminants from metal shredding operations. The fee is designed to support fence-line monitoring of hazardous constituents such as lead, copper, zinc, and cadmium, collection and analysis of light fibrous materials, development of community notification procedures, and consultation with local air districts to enforce complementary air quality standards. The regulatory framework applies to operations that generate metal shredder aggregate and residue, both of which contain hazardous materials exceeding state toxicity thresholds and pose significant environmental and public health risks when released beyond facility boundaries through stormwater runoff, airborne emissions, or fires. The fee structure is calibrated based on projected annual costs derived from DTSC’s workload analysis across 10 known metal shredding sites from July 2024 through September 2025, accounting for inspection, enforcement, and monitoring activities. For fiscal year 2026-27, the fee rate will be set via emergency regulation to meet statutory deadlines for implementing fence-line monitoring by January 1, 2027, with payment due by March 1 to ensure timely funding. Beginning in fiscal year 2027-28, the base rate will be reassessed annually through emergency rulemaking by December 1, with fee notices mailed by December 15 and payments due by March 1 to provide over 75 days for compliance. The definition of “metal shredding site” is narrowly tailored to include only those operations directly responsible for offsite environmental impacts, ensuring equitable cost allocation among fee payers. Timely adoption of this regulation is critical, as without dedicated funding, DTSC and OEHHA cannot fulfill their statutory obligations to protect vulnerable communities from toxic exposure, enforce monitoring requirements, or support local air districts in implementing AB 2851’s health and environmental protections.
