Title: Mojave Desert and Mountain Integrated Waste Joint Powers Authority Board and Solid Waste Advisory Task-Force (SWAT) Two Year Appointments Background: Mojave Desert and Mountain Recycling Authority (the JPA) is a joint powers authority organized under California Government Code Section 6500. The JPA shares the common powers of its nine members to plan for and implement elements of an Integrated Waste Management Plan within all or any part of its respective boundaries, including solid waste disposal, composting and recycling facilities, and waste diversion programs deemed necessary to meet state law. JPA facilities and programs may include: solid waste transfer facilities, household hazardous waste management, composting facilities, materials collection, marketing and market development, public education, conversion technologies, and material recovery facilities.
As required by the California Integrated Waste Management Act, the Solid Waste Advisory Task Force (SWAT) of San Bernardino County will carry out the responsibilities mandated by the State of California through AB 939. SWAT may also consider and make recommendations to the County on such other solid waste related matters as they may deem appropriate. In addition to the SWAT itself, it currently has three committees; Technical, Strategic Planning and Membership. The SWAT and the Technical Committee meets twice annually on the third Wednesday in April and October at 1 :30 p.m. in Highland (there is no stipend). In person attendance is required. The Strategic Planning and Membership Committees meet on an asneeded basis. The Mojave Desert & Mountain Recycling Authority meets the second Thursday at 10:00 a.m. in Victorville in February, May, August and November. The city's representative will receive $75 stipend per meeting attended plus mileage. Attendance may be in person or remote providing compliance with the Brown Act.
