Note: The resources on this site were designed to help every business, small and large alike. The tools are simple enough for any business to take a DIY (Do It Yourself) approach. But we also recognize that some corporations may need support to make sure employees are trained and facilities are configured to meet compliance. You can learn more about those services on this page. We look forward to helping you mitigate the fines associated with California SLCP (SB-1383). ~Chuck Peavey
California SB-1383 (SLCP)... Mandatory Audits and Fines began January 1, 2022:
- In 2016, California passed SB-1383 (Short Lived Climate Polutants) regulations...
- On January 1, 2022, Mandatory audits and fines began...
- Many jurisdictions are already fining based on SB-1383 compliance...
- SB-1383 (SLCP) currently says:
- Should an auditor show up on your doorstep and you do not let them in, that is aledged to be a mandatory $2500 per day fine until you let them in...
- You will be fined $50 to $500 for misplaced trash, from a soda can in the compost bin to a banana peel in the recycle bin or trash can...
- You are expected to be fined for not having a compost bin (or recycle bin) next to every trash can....
- You are expected to be fined for every employee who has not had mandatory trash training within the last 365 days...
- You are expected to be fined if your documentation of this trash training is not 100% complete and correct (that is a $2500 fine)...
- If you have food service, you are expected to be fined if you are not sending left overs to a state approved charitable organization (some organizations are exempt until 2024)...
- You are expectedd to be fined if you do not properly document these food donations...
- And more!
SB-1383 removed all "good faith effort" clauses and replaced them with "Mandatory fines."
