Throughout the North County, we provide comprehensive solid waste and recycling services for residential and commercial customers. The services we offer include processing solid waste, recycling and composting of solid, C&D, comingled recycling, green and food waste streams designed to comply with the new SB1383. Our North County Recycling facility has recently invested in solar energy to expand our environmental stewardship and reduce our carbon footprint, we have also invested in a facility expansion to help better serve the recycling requirements in our community which we hope to have completed by years end. These investments allow us to expand our ability to assist the North County locally, in complying with the new requirements of SB1383, without adding to larger carbon footprint issues with additional transportation to far away solutions, impacting our natural resources, air quality and traffic congestion. Our facility recycles 100% of all incoming organic and green waste and 85+% of construction and demolition material we process, with that we can help achieve the required diversion and mandatory procurement goals that are now required in SB1383, impacting all commercial and residential generators. Additionally, we complete the recycling loop with selling our compost, mulch and wood retail products we produce back to the communities we serve, creating the much needed circular economy in SLO County that SB1383 strives to create. Our fully permitted facility located in Paso Robles for 20+ years, with locally designed and developed assets to provide all services required to satisfy SB1383 requirements for years to come. Thank you for your time this evening, I look forward to hearing from you with any questions or thoughts as we continue to grow green. Stay safe and be Well Ron Krall CEO Mid State Solid Waste North County Recycling 3360 La Cruz Way, Paso Robles, CA. 93446 805-434-0043 Helping to Build a Circular World
