SB 1383 Compliant Compost and Mulch

We produce a variety of compost and mulch products that meet California’s SB 1383 Procurement Requirements. SB 1383 went into effect to set methane emission reduction targets for short-lived climate pollutants (SLCP) and reduce the amount of organic waste going to landfills. All California jurisdictions must implement strategies and programs designed to reduce landfilled organics by 75% by 2025.

It also mandates that food recovery practices are increased 20% by 2025. A helpful resource is StopWaste’s Overview of the Annual Procurement Requirements for Recovered Organic Waste Products in SB 1383.

To comply with SB 1383, California counties and cities must purchase, use or donate an amount of recovered organic residual products equal to or exceeding 0.08 tons (160 pounds) per California resident in their jurisdiction per year.
