AI Summary

  • Prohibits household hazardous waste collection facilities authorized to accept waste from conditionally exempt small quantity generators (CESQGs) from accepting more than 1,000 kilograms of recyclable latex paint per CESQG in a calendar month.

  • Clarifies the definition of CESQG to specify that only RCRA hazardous waste counts toward the threshold for determining CESQG status.

  • Changes grammatical language from "which" to "that" in sections 25218.1 and 25218.3 of the Health and Safety Code.

  • Designates this bill as imposing a state-mandated local program because violations of the latex paint prohibition would be crimes under existing hazardous waste control laws.

  • Provides that no state reimbursement is required because costs incurred by local agencies result from creating a new crime or changing penalties for crimes.
