Currently, the ACT does not permit jurisdictions to <br /> count transformation activities toward meeting waste <br /> diversion goals until after January 1, 1995. Further, <br /> jurisdictions may only count up to 10% of total waste <br /> generated toward meeting the January 1, 2000 goals by <br /> transformation, and then, only after meeting certain <br /> standards as specified in PRC Section 41783 . However, <br /> if legislation or regulations are enacted that allow <br /> jurisdictions to claim additional transformation <br /> activities, then the County will credit toward its <br /> diversion goals all allowable transformation. <br /> 3. Special Wastes: <br /> In addition to the above 83, 376 tons of special <br /> � P <br /> wastes were diverted in 1990. Special waste quantities <br /> were scrap metals - 10, 311 tons, food wastes - 8, 606 <br /> tons, inerts - 64, 127 tons, and abandoned vehicles - 332 <br /> tons. At the time of writing of this report, it appears <br /> that this diversion activity may be counted toward <br /> reaching the County's diversion goals. However, <br /> legislation may be adopted that could restrict counting <br /> these activities. Therefore, these diversionary <br /> activities and quantities are not included in disposal <br /> or generation calculations throughout this report, <br /> except when noted. <br /> Chapter 2 - Waste Generation 11 <br />
