As a public notification, we want to remind the Seaside community that the SB1383 law took effect on January 1, 2022.
SB 1383 establishes statewide targets to reduce the amount of organic waste disposed of in landfills, and mandates businesses and residents to separate organic material, including food waste, into the Organic Materials Container.
As part of this law, Blue Strike Environmental, will be conducting random "LID FLIPS”, in which they will check the contents of waste containers and identify how customers can be supported in their waste disposal and sorting efforts. These random checks will be conducted on collection days.
As a handy reference guide, we would like to remind the community that:
- Inside the Blue container goes regular recycling: Plastic, Metal, Cardboard, etc.
- Inside the Green container goes organic materials: Yard Trimmings, Food Scraps, etc.
- Inside the Gray container goes regular/solid waste: Styrofoam, soiled paper, snack bags, etc.
