Telephone surveys revealed that less than one percent <br /> of the entire waste stream is diverted through current <br /> source reduction programs. Source reduction information <br /> for 1990 is presented in the following table: <br /> TABLE 3-1 <br /> 1990 SOURCE REDUCTION ACTIVITIES <br /> UNINCORPORATED COUNTY <br /> WASTE PRODUCT TONS % <br /> Grocery Bags 2 0.001 <br /> Diapers 60 0.042 <br /> Wood Pallets 400 0.280 <br /> Fruit/Produce Wastes 40 0. 028 <br /> Totals 502 0. 351 <br /> C. Source Reduction e:Strategies that will be Decreased in Scope: <br /> A <br /> The AB 939a uidelines require description of <br /> g q P <br /> alternatives that will be decreased in scope, effects of <br /> this decrease on existing solid waste management, and <br /> effects on attainment of mandated diversionary goals. <br /> It is anticipated that no source reduction activities <br /> will be decreased in scope due to development and <br /> implementation of the source reduction strategies outlined <br /> in this component. Since existing strategies will not be <br /> decreased, it is anticipated that there will be no impact <br /> on existing solid waste management or on the attainment of <br /> the AB 939 goals. <br /> V.
