Republic recognizes that commercial bins often exceed their useful life of a minimum 10 years and that older bins with a prior paint scheme (white) may still exist at customer sites. Republic Services has been aggressive at identifying containers in service that are brand and SB 1383 non-compliant (white) to Republic Services’ brand color (blue). Republic is committed to ensuring that a full-scale commercial route review will be completed post-franchise agreement commencement date to identify any non-compliant containers and remove and exchange from service by12/31/2025
It is important to note all new commercial customers and bin exchanges receive brand and SB 1383 compliant bins.
Any commercial customers who do not already have recycling, organics, and/or a waiver will receive a default 35-gallon organics cart. At commencement of the new agreement, these customers will receive their default containers as they will be paying for the service under the new rate structure. Any customer requiring service above the default cart size and frequency will be right-sized accordingly.
Republic Services will implement and distribute the following education and outreach materials currently in practice today as well as required by the Draft Agreement:
School education and outreach (annually, on or before September 30th) Recyclability of materials brochure (one-time, to all ratepayers) Acceptable/unacceptable organics brochure (one-time, to all ratepayers) Compliance notices (as needed and ongoing)

Exhibit 6 3743
Customer Service Plan 3744
Exhibit 6
Customer Service Plan
1. Overview
When fielding a customer request, CSRs immediately access the customer’s account information in Republic’s customer management system, InfoPro. Republic owns the InfoPro application and continues to invest in it. When a new technology must be integrated, Republic’s IT team makes the necessary modifications. CSRs can access all pertinent customer information through InfoPro, including service address, pick-up day, rate, service level, and a complete history of service requests and resolutions. ▪ After determining the customer need, the CSR inputs all required information into the customer’s permanent file history and, if necessary, generate an on-line automated work order.
▪ If the inquiry is simply for information or clarification about Republic programs, the CSR will answer the question and close the file.
▪ If the request requires action on the part of Republic, a work order will be generated for the appropriate department to address, end the telephone call, and produce an online work order in InfoPro, that must be closed out within two (2) days.
When customers contact Republic through the My Resource web portal or mobile application, the process is automated, and information is immediately and directly sent to the proper department for prompt handling.
Each time a customer contacts Republic, inquiries and concerns are entered into InfoPro, including date, time, customer name, address, and the nature, date and manner of the resolution is also logged and sent to Drivers and Supervisors. Dispatch monitors a ll work orders requiring driver action. Upon receipt of a work order requiring same-day completion, a special alert is generated, and the appropriate driver is instructed as to what is needed to complete the order. In addition, each driver verbally contacts dispatch prior to completion of their assigned route to ensure all outstanding requests are fulfilled prior to returning to the operations facility.
Republic Route Supervisors spend the majority of their time working in their assigned area(s), which enables them to meet drivers at the customer location to ensure quick, permanent resolution. Drivers document completion of all same-day service orders in the system.
Common customer requests and concerns are tracked and reported by Republic business unit company-wide, which has resulted in an exceedingly high level of customer service.
2. Service Recipient Billing
• Residential customers are billed quarterly, while Commercial and Industrial customers are billed monthly.
• The initial step for the CSR is to confirm the customer's name, service address, and reason for inquiry. After listening to and stating the reason(s) for the customer call, the CSR can assist in addressing and resolving their needs.
Common billing inquiries may include but are not limited to, requests for cart/container size increase or decrease, service day increase or decrease changes, customer new starts, or stopping service.
• When and if billing disputes arise, CSRs are trained to actively listen and understand the customer concern, review the invoice, and investigate and gather supporting relevant information to successfully resolve the customer's concern.
• In the spirit of a one-call resolution, the customer's concern is typically resolved at that time. If a situation requires escalation to the Customer Service Manager, they will immediately and professionally attempt to resolve the issue to the customer's satisfaction.
3. Technology Network
Our phone systems are modern and sufficient to handle all calls from the City of Richmond customers. As the incumbent, our existing website will be updated to include all changes selected by the city.
4. Staffing Levels
There are approximately 5,636 service accounts in the City of San Pablo service area —563 accounts per each of our ten (10) CSRs. Our highly trained, engaged, and dedicated CSR team ensures an excellent customer experience with limited average wait time of only .19 second speed of telephone call answer (ASA) --below the national industry standar d and exemplifying our commitment to exceed customer expectations.
5. Payment Programs
Modern day customer service is about customer options and simple solutions. Newer generations expect web-based and mobile app-based abilities to self-serve simple needs at any time of the day or night. Certainly, more complex topics may still require perso n-to-person interaction, but a vast majority of customer service contacts in this industry are topics that can be self -served. For this reason, Republic Services has invested to create state -of-the-website and mobile app.Our customers now can reach us 24/7 via our website, www.republicservices.com/municipality/wccc - ca.com, or via our Republic Services mobile app. Our self-service options are designed to improve overall response time, enabling resolutions to simple customer inquiries and needs anytime, anywhere with the least amount of customer inconvenience as possible. Through our website and mobile app customers can:
▪ Pay their bill
▪ Schedule an extra pick up
▪ Discover new services
▪ Receive weather and holiday service updates
▪ Sign up for autopay and paperless billing
▪ Submit inquiries or complaints
▪ “Track My Truck” where customers can see where a truck is currently located on route. ▪ Service alerts to notify residents or businesses of changes or delays. Alerts such as blocked containers will provide a notification with a photo uploaded to the app.

b) Reduction of Air Emissions and Wear & Tear on City Streets All collection vehicles are in compliance with CARB’s low carbon alternative fuel regulations Consistently well-maintained collection vehicles greatly cut emissions (and noise), and optimized routes reduce vehicle miles traveled and street wear and tear. Republic has partnered with its equipment manufacturers to design vehicles that have increased carrying capacity, which minimizes trips to the transfer station, reducing vehicle miles traveled.
c) Vehicle Technology: With Republic’s RISE application, Republic driver and truck locations are reported at regular time and distance intervals, providing the operations team with the whereabouts and situational awareness of the fleet and all routes during the day. Additi onally, Republic utilizes geo-fencing capabilities, to set geographic boundaries for routes, which trigger alerts when vehicles cross a defined geo-fence border. This assists operation team members in determining whether drivers are on pace for on-time route completion, or whether additional support must be dispatched due to unforeseen circumstances.
d) Vehicle Maintenance Program: Republic’s fleet of vehicles undergoes the most extensive preventive maintenance procedures in the industry, which leads to a safer, more efficient,
and environmentally sound collection process. Company vehicles undergo rigorous preventive maintenance procedures and comprehensive pre- and post-trip inspections which exceed industry standards to ensure the highest level of performance and safety while o n route and minimal downtime.
e) Vehicle Maintenance Schedule: Republic’s reporting system for tracking vehicle maintenance, vehicle performance, and adherence to company policies relative to such is called Dossier, which enables Republic to produce weekly reports that are used by the Fleet Maintenance Manager to monitor performance and take appropriate action steps when necessary to enforce compliance with Company policy and procedure. Some of the maintenance-related reports the Dossier system produces, and which are also covered in weekly maintenance and operations meetings are:
▪ Maintenance Cost per Vehicle Report (with high-cost trucks noted) ▪ Road Call Report
▪ Towing Report
▪ Drive Compliance and Error Report
▪ Mechanic Productivity Report
▪ Fuel and Meter Report
▪ System Code Spreadsheet Report
▪ Preventive Maintenance (PM) Report (with overdue PM sub-report)
2. Containers
a. Sufficiency of Capacity: We have a durable process in place to ensure the availability of collection containers that are SB 1383 compliant for our customers.
Container Dimensions
Container Height Width Depth
20 Gallon Cart 36.2” 19.8” 26.0”
32 Gallon Cart 36.5” 19.8” 26.3”
64 Gallon Cart 41.5” 24.5” 27.5”
96 Gallon Cart 43.2” 28.0” 32.1”

6 Cubic Yard Bin 57.0” 72.0” 80.0”
7 Cubic Yard Bin 57.0” 72.0” 81.0”
b. Bin Enclosures and Limited Space: During the assessment, we will identify bin locations and access paths that allow for safe, convenient service. Right-sizing service levels can increase waste diversion, improve collection productivity, and lead to reduced costs for customers. d. Container Appearance: Republic takes pride in the appearance of its equipment. The condition of all containers is audited annually, on a rolling basis, and scheduled for replacement as needed. Containers that require repairs or maintenance will be delivered to Republic’s local container repair facility in Richmond. e. Container Durability: The containers listed above are suitable for all customers.
In the event of a customer’s space limitations, we can provide and have demonstrated the ability to offer optional services to meet the customer’s needs.
1) Automated Carts: A weekly Bundled SFD Solid Waste Collection Service system with one (1) 20,32,65,95-Gallon Black Garbage Cart, one (1) 65-Gallon Blue Recyclable
Materials Cart, and one (1) 65-Gallon Green Organic Waste Cart as part of the base SFD Solid Waste Collection Service. Customers shall receive additional Recyclable Materials Carts and additional Organic Waste Carts to be included at no additional cost if requested. Carts with a capacity of 20-Gallon, 64-Gallon or 96-Gallon may be requested by Customers that can demonstrate that they (a) have cart storage space constraints and (b) do not generate sufficient quantities of a waste stream type to justify the larger size of cart.
2) Commercial Bins: Republic Services will assist commercial and multi-family customers in achieving compliance with existing and new regulations through personalized outreach and recycling technical assistance to optimize recycling and organic service levels. This includes the continued implementation of a properly signed and colored three-container system. Please refer to the Education and Outreach section for information pertaining to education and outreach efforts, both during transition, and ongoing.
As the incumbent, Republic Services will continue to offer solid waste, recycling, and organic collection services with a variety of collection container sizes and service frequencies to meet single-family, multi-family and commercial community needs, up to six days per week. Collections will be conducted in the following container sizes: 32-, 64 and 96-gallon carts; 1- to 7- yard front load bins; 1–2-yard rear load bins: for recyclable materials, MSW, and green/food waste organics.
Being the incumbent in San Pablo we have already implemented SB 1383 compliant programs which make our evaluation process immensely easier to accommodate each property with the proper size containers and ensure that each customer maximizes the City’s participation goals.
3. Route Operations: Successful collection operations begin with a skillful operations supervisor who knows the business as well as your community. Your Republic Services local operations manager is responsible for the day-to-day collection operations, including development and evaluation of routing (in conjunction with the general manager), training and oversight of drivers, and implementation and enforcement of safety procedures.
a) Advantages to Collection Vehicles Chosen: All collection vehicles are in compliance with CARB’s low carbon alternative fuel regulations (see appendix). Consistently well-maintained collection vehicles greatly cut emissions (and noise), and optimized routes reduce vehicle miles traveled and street wear and tear. Republic has partnered with its equipment manufacturers to design vehicles that have increased carrying capacity, which minimizes trips to the transfer station, reducing vehicle miles traveled. b) Driver Responsibilities: To ensure extreme reliability and a consistently high level of customer service, Republic Services has a quality control program called Driver Service Management (DSM). DSM includes an extensive driver-lead reporting process, accompanied by regular auditing, that is focused on safeguarding against procedural failures. DSM standards guarantee that all driver issues will be addressed and completely resolved by supervisors or management within seven days of discovery.
c) Anticipated Driver Productivity: During collection activities, drivers are instructed to make notes on their RISE tablets throughout the day. The objective of the post-route briefing is to collect all valuable route information from each driver to ensure operations will receive issues such as poorly sequenced routes; sales will receive items such as commercial overage issues; safety will receive information pertaining low hanging wires or dangerous dumpster locations; and maintenance will be forwarded issues such as repair and replacement needs.

d) Operational Communications: Successful collection operations begin with a skillful operations supervisor who knows the business as well as your community. Your Republic Services local operations manager is responsible for the day-to-day collection operations, including development and evaluation of routing (in conjunction with the general manager), training and oversight of drivers, and implementation and enforcement of safety procedures. We ensure our operations supervisors are not overloaded, nor tied to a desk. On average, we maintain a 15:1 ratio of routes to supervisors, which means that items needing attention are dealt with immediately and that the supervisor knows your community intimately. In addition, our supervisors are out on the routes regularly. At least twice per week, they conduct a ride-along with drivers on their routes. This creates great opportunities for driver mentoring, ensures quality control on the route, and keeps the supervisor directly aware and familiar with the nuances of the route and the community. Few, if any other companies in the industry, dedicate their operations staff to succeed in this manner.
e) Driver Contamination Monitoring:
For recycling and organic waste setouts, Republic drivers perform a periodic visual contamination check of the cart contents.
▪ If contamination is visible, the cart will be tagged with a “Corrective Action Notice,” informing the customer why they received the notice and how to properly sort materials in the future. Subsequent infractions or ongoing
unacceptable levels of contamination will also be noticed, and a fee may be assessed. A picture is taken with the RISE tablet and uploaded to the customer’s account. ▪ As with all Corrective Action Notices and other route events and incidents, this information will be logged into Republic’s customer database and routinely shared with the city.
f.) Annual Service Level and Billing Audit Approach
Audit Plan: To additionally mitigate any impacts to our ability to provide reliable service, Republic’s customer management software application, InfoPro, automatically generates a number of reports that are routinely reviewed by Republic managers, most on a daily bas is.
These include:
Production Reports
This module includes:
▪ Route Analysis
▪ Route Downtime Analysis
▪ Customer Service History
▪ Daily Operating Summary
▪ Daily Fuel Report
▪ Daily Disposal Report
▪ Disposal Exception Report
▪ Daily Truck / Employee Replacement Report
▪ Customer Service Report
▪ Blocked / No Service Report
These reports are used in the daily activities of the division in order to monitor productivity and effectiveness.
1) Route Maps: The RISE platform was built for Republic Service employees by Republic Service employees. The RISE platform consists of three components:
2) ▪ RISE Portal
3) ▪ RISE Map
4) RISE Tablet
The heart of the platform is the RISE Portal and the RISE Map, the portal and map feature an intuitive structure that allows users to easily assign routes, view maps, and quickly identify assets and facilities.
The RISE Map: quickly allows new or substitute drivers to visually understand the assigned work through the visual representation of the proximity between customers and disposal sites. This benefit helps eliminate unproductive time and total miles traveled, limiting impacts on the city roads and emissions.
RISE tablet: Republic Services rolled out RISE tablets to our industrial drivers starting in 2020 and to our commercial drivers in 2021/2022. The RISE tablets provide our drivers with an electronic route sheet with turn-by-turn directions to ensure the most efficient route. The navigation software uses real-time traffic conditions to avoid delays and incorporate safety mechanisms that record the truck's height, weight, and length to ensure overpasses and bridges can support our vehicles
1) At least once annually, beginning in 2025, Contractor or its approved designee shall conduct a Route Review for each Hauler Route. The number of Containers to review per Hauler Route shall be calculated on the basis of the number of Garbage accounts provided service by a specific Hauler Route for one week. For example, “Route A” collects Garbage from 250 accounts, 4 days per week, for a total of 1,000 accounts per week; include a minimum of 25 accounts for Route Review of “Route A”. For each Route Review of a Hauler Route, Contractor shall inspect at least the following minimum number of Containers but may inspect more if Contractor deems necessary; and shall inspect all Containers placed for Collection (including Recyclable Materials Containers, Organic Waste Containers, and Garbage Containers). Each inspection shall involve lifting the Container lid and observing the contents but shall not require Contractor to disturb the contents or open any bags. Contractor may select the Containers to be inspected at random, or (if mutually agreed with City) by any other method not prohibited under the SB 1383 Regulations. For the avoidance of doubt, Contractor shall not be required to annually inspect every Container on a Hauler Route. Contractor shall include the resul ts of each Route Review in its next regularly scheduled report to City. 2) Route Audit Team Training: As the incumbent we already perform annual route audits on all collection routes where we sample an appropriate number of collection containers.
These annual route audits are supplemented by our sustainability advisors performing more exhaustive audits of our commercial and industrial containers.
4. Safety
a. Staffing Safety Requirements: Republic Services has an industry leading safety record that has been 38% better than the industry average for the past ten years, based on OSHA data.
In addition, we have been recipients of 72% of the industry’s Driver and Operator of the Year awards since 2009.
b. Republic Services maintains strict compliance with all applicable DOT (includes physical, drug, and alcohol testing), OSHA, federal, state and local safety requirements while performing all work-related functions.
c. We recognize that a safe workforce is not simply a discussion with a new hire, but a dedicated plan to review, educate and verify employee practices constantly. . d. Two of Republic Services’ ambitious sustainability goals are tied to specific safety metrics.
These include reducing our Occupational Safety and Health Administration Total Recordable Incident Rate to 2.0 or less and
1) Training: Republic Services has the lowest occurrence of incidents and crashes in the industry due to our company-wide emphasis on safety, extensive employee training and ongoing educational development programs. Republic Services requires all operations personnel to participate in extensive classroom training and testing, as well as on -road auditing and policy reinforcement.
2) Personal Protective Equipment: Republic Services is committed to providing the safest collection and disposal processes possible. We recognize that effective management of worker safety and health protection is a decisive factor in reducing the extent, severity, and cost of work-related injuries and illnesses. Eye, face, head, hand, and high visibility PPE is required to be worn when applicable.
5. Reporting
a. Detailed monitoring and reporting:
Republic Services as the responsible agent to fulfill several of its responsibilities under AB 341, AB 939, AB 1594, and SB 1383. However, San Pablo cannot delegate its authority to Republic Services for the imposing of civil penalties to non-compliant generators. b. Method Used to Track Tonnage: It is required that all collection vehicles are weighed daily after collection at each of the designated post-collection facilities. All truck weights are captured, reported, and maintained through our PC Scales software. c. Process for Reporting Complaints: We track all service recipient complaints through our InfoPro system and record notes within the customer’s account. Should there be any disputes we will provide the full-service log to the Cities as required by the RFP. Please refer to our Customer Service Plan for a detailed process on the protocols for all customer service interactions.

Sustainability and Compliance Plan
1. The Approach to Programs and Facility Requirements
a) Proposed Operating Procedures
Sustainability and Compliance Plan
Transition to Zero Emission Vehicles
Republic Services is able to transition to residential zero emission vehicles (ZEVs) by the commencement of the contract on July 1, 2025,
should the city select that alternative option provided in Section 6. Our technical proposal provided in Section 4 gives our analysis on the benefits and tradeoffs associated with implementing electric vehicles.
Tracking GHG Emission Reduction
Greenhouse Gas (GhG) emissions in our industry originate from two main sources. The largest source is the GhG emissions from the decomposition of material at a modern landfill, with the landfill gas typically captured and processed to create energy or Renewable Natural Gas (RNG). The second source is the emissions of the collection fleet vehicles, based on fuel type for the vehicles. As new programs are added to a contract to divert material from the landfill, the associated GhG emissions for those materials are factored as a reduction of emissions. An example of this is the diversion of food and organics from the landfill to beneficial reuse such as compost or energy. In addition, the migration of fleet vehicles from emission producing fuels to zero emission electricity also contributes to GhG reductions overall.
Republic Services recognizes the significance of our GhG reduction efforts on the Climate Action Plans and Goals of our partner municipalities. To assist in measuring and tracking these emission reduction contributions, we are developing a Municipal Carbon Calculator. Our tool allows the baseline and future tracking of the collection and post-collection operation, and the changes in material composition across the customer base, as well as the evolution of fleet fuels. The tool also uses the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Emission Factors for Greenhouse Gas Inventories, the EPA’s Volume-to-Weight Conversion Factors, and the EPA’s Waste Reduction Model (WARM) v15.
Although the tool is in development, our initial estimate of the GHG emissions generated and avoided for the City of San Pablo is provided in the table on the next page. Moving forward, Republic Services plans to refine this tool to manage, track, and provide updated information on GHG emissions and reduction.
b. Use of Local Vendors
We support local vendors in the following ways.
Use of local dealerships for service and repairs
We order vehicle parts from local warehouses
Improves fleet reliability
Reduces GHG emissions
Lowers downtime
We use local temp agencies exclusively
For employee engagement and sponsored events we use local restaurants and business.
2. Meeting Diversion Requirements
Diversion Programs
SFD
Republic Services shall continue to offer the following collection programs to Single Family Dwellings, Multi-Family Dwellings, commercial, and industrial customers. Green Container for Commingled Organic Waste
– Only food waste, yard waste, green waste, and food-soiled paper allowed in each container.
Blue Container for Recyclables
– Traditional recyclables, such as bottles, cans, plastics, and organic waste such as paper and cardboard
Black Container for Non-Organic Waste
– Items destined for a landfill that cannot be recycled or composted (including animal waste)
MFD & Commercial Diversion Programs
To meet the expectations of the City’s RFP:
Preference for a 3-container source-separated collection system for achieving compliance with SB 1383; and
high diversion goals.
Republic Services has proposed a wide range of recycling program container sizes, frequencies, and opportunities for reduced MSW collections from customers’ current service levels:
Website availability of diversion requirements
– Tips to becoming a better recycler
– Recycling insights and information
– (PBS) Where does your recycling go?
– Recycling Simplified
Sustainability program leader initiative
MFD service guides
MFD brochures
MFD toolkit
Indoor containers – Republic Services shall provide a variety of indoor containers to support proper recycling and organics collection. Sustainability Advisors will assist in set up to ensure maximum diversion.
Posters, guides, stickers, bin labeling – Sustainability Advisors shall provide this material during initial site visit and as needed in the future.
Waste presentations and trainings – Sustainability Advisors will provide waste trainings to staff, managers, janitors, etc. to encourage proper sorting and program participation. Republic intends to be a fully active and committed partner to the cities in educating the customer base, enrolling them in required recycling programs, and shifting away from the voluntary mindset to comply with the law. To achieve this, the City’s mandatory participation ordinance with enforceable actions will be essential to obtaining our joint success. As will the default bundled rate program where every customer is provided with a minimum of 96-gallon once per week recycling service.
Bulky Waste Diversion Program
Republic Services has proposed a wide range of bulky waste diversion programs and information such as:
On-call curbside household bulky items & electronic waste pickup Mattresses
TVs
White goods (refrigerators, washers, dryers, household appliances) We utilize two of our facilities: the Household Hazardous Waste Facility to divert mattresses, box springs, and futons and the Golden Bear Transfer Station to divert materials such as metals, white goods, mattresses, tires, electronics, and carpet.
C&D Waste Diversion Program
For construction and demolition projects, services will be performed in a manner that complies with CalGreen requirements, which currently includes a 65% minimum diversion rate stipulation at all covered projects.
4. Diversion Facilities
-West County Resource Recovery – Recycling Center
Address: 101 Pittsburg Ave. Richmond, CA 94801
Owner/ Operator: Republic Services
Permit Status: Current**
Permitted Capacity: 1,200 tons per day
Republic Services has equipped the West County Resource Recovery Center with cutting-edge sorting technology, capable of processing over 200 tons of residential, commercial, and industrial recycling daily. This innovation helps meet the growing demand for recycling and empowers our customers to achieve their sustainability goals.
WCRR also provides CRV recycling buyback, mattress recycling for member agency cities of the West County JPA, and Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) drop-off for all residents of West Contra Costa County. Compost giveaway is offered.
3. Contamination Minimization
Republic Services are required to monitor containers to minimize prohibited cart contaminants. Monitoring requires annually auditing containers along every collection route to ensure all containers are correctly sorted.
A high contamination level requires more processing and negatively affects the quality of the finished product. To achieve a sustainable recyclable and organic diversion program and meet the law’s monitoring requirement, and Republic Services must work together to minimize contamination in every container. Republic Services are required to monitor containers to minimize prohibited cart contaminants.
Our proposed contamination minimization program will include:
Route Reviews: Carts randomly selected and physically inspected along each route, throughout each year.
Waste Evaluations: once per year, as directed by the city, for each customer and commodity type. Notify Customers: Cart/bin “Oops,” tags will inform customers of proper material separation and reason for non-collection.
Contamination Fees: Contamination fees will be charged to all customers with contaminated carts/bins after the two initial observations and subsequent “warnings,” per year to address the added costs to further process and dispose of the contaminated materials.
Upon Republic’s observation of contaminated materials, a customer service representative or dispatcher will contact customer that same day. If returned service is requested by the customer within two business days, Republic will return and provide service the next business day. (see alternative) a. Compliance Review

g. Route Review Efficiency
4. Air Emission Reduction
All collection vehicles are in compliance with CARB’s low carbon alternative fuel regulations.
Consistently well-maintained collection vehicles greatly cut emissions (and noise).
5. Reducing Wear and Tear on City Streets
Optimized routes reduce vehicle miles traveled and street wear and tear. Republic has partnered with its equipment manufacturers to design vehicles that have increased carrying capacity, which minimizes trips to the transfer station, reducing vehicle miles traveled.
7. Environmental Stewardship
We use renewable fuel vehicles for all collection activities.
Recycled Products – Operations
Vehicle fluids recycling
We recycle all capturable vehicle fluids through a local vendor allowing for circularity of any necessary hydrocarbon fluids.
Maintenance core returns
Most parts used within our trucks use “cores” which can be refurbished and reused within a future remanufactured part.
Use of local parts vendors to reduce GHG emissions
In order to maintain our fleet in the most efficient manner and support the local vendor network we primarily source our parts from local vendors which has a beneficial effect of reducing GHG emissions from shipping parts over long distances.
Metal recycling
We take every opportunity to recycle metals within our maintenance processes to avoid wasteful introduction of primary metals and recover some of our cost of purchase, thereby reducing rates t service recipients.
Tire recycling, All tires that are worn to the point of being removed from service or irreparably damaged are diverted from landfills via partnering with our tire partner. a. Water and Power Conservation /Waste Reduction and Reuse b. 3 stream system set up in breakrooms to capture all food waste, recycling, and trash c. ▪ Each desk area has recycling baskets
d. ▪ Recycling baskets are readily available at all printer stations around the office. e. ▪ Nearly all employees have their own reusable water bottle. f. ▪ Kitchen is stocked with re-usable cups, plates, and utensils to minimize single use waste g. ▪ E-waste (laptops, cell phones, keyboards, printer ink) is returned to IT for recycling or internal reuse
h. ▪ Batteries and other HHW are collected and dropped off to the HHW facility in Richmond i. ▪ Electricity is reduced after hours and weekends
j. ▪ Upgraded water system – integrated filtration system that eliminates the need for single use plastic water bottles and water jugs
k. Our office fosters a culture of sustainability through a comprehensive waste reduction and recycling program. Breakrooms boast a 3-stream system for food scraps, recyclables, and general trash, while personal recycling baskets sit at every desk. Printer stations are equipped with readily available recycling bins, and nearly all employees carry their own reusable water bottles, minimizing single-use plastic. The kitchen is stocked with reusable plates and utensils, further minimizing single-use waste. Even electronics get a second life through responsible e-waste recycling by the IT team. Responsible energy use extends to after-hours and weekends with reduced electricity consumption, and a state-of-the-art water filtration system eliminates the need for plastic water bottles. Additionally, the commitment to sustainability extends beyond waste, with electricity being conserved after hours and weekends, demonstrating our dedication to both environmental and economic responsibility l.

c. Polymer Center Plastic Circularity – Polymer Center
d. With increasing desire to address the plastic recycling challenges, Republic Services offers a unique and leading ability to enable greater plastic circularity for our municipalities. e. There is a growing gap in the North American supply chain for recovered plastics to serve Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) manufacturers’ increasing goals as well as state legislation mandating circularity. This is driven by the inability for traditional recycling centers to generate the CPG level quality that manufacturers need, as well as the barrier that exist for a third party to aggregate enough volume to make such business economically viable.
Republic Services has a solution for this challenge.
f. Understanding the Market
g. Plastic packaging in North America faces a challenge to achieve circularity in recycling. For example, the likelihood of a water bottle in America becoming another water bottle is slim.
This is attributed to three key factors: 1) public education, 2) lack of proper recycling opportunities, and 3) the ability of the plastic material to be properly separated and aggregated into a quality that manufacturers can accept into their production lines. h. Public education and proper recycling opportunities are tightly coupled. Typical PET water bottles for instance, are designed for convenience, and are likely disposed of away from home in waste containers destined for a landfill. Municipalities that work on public education, as well as comprehensive placement of recycling containers throughout the municipality, create a much higher probability that plastics will make their way to a modern recycling center, rather than a landfill.
i. However, once plastics arrive at a modern recycling center, the technology design at these facilities yields a bale that contains a mix of cross-contamination, which means the bale j. contains plastic grades that are not optimized for the increasing CPG goals and quality requirements. Currently, a majority of PET that is recovered in a modern recycling center is “downcycled” into carpet and textiles.
k. j. Of roughly 14 million tons of North American consumer packaging plastics that are generated
every year, 10M tons are landfilled, and 2M tons are incinerated. Of the 2M tons that are recovered through modern recycling programs and centers, l. Landfill Gas Recovery for Power Generation

m. Covered Aerated Static Pile (CASP) System
n. In 2017, WCCSL transitioned from a windrow compost system to a Covered Aerated Static Pile (CASP) system. The new CASP system utilizes components directly from landfill gas collection system equipment including HDPE headers and aerators, blower systems, and state-of-the-art SCADA system temperature and moisture controls. Advantages of the CASP are up to 95% reduction in emissions when compared to the windrow system, 50% reduction in composting time, and 25% reduction in water use
o. The facility receives approximately 85,000 tons per year (or about 325 tons per day) of organics.
p. All facilities are local.
q. Compost is donated back to community via compost giveaways.

For over 100 years, Republic Services and its predecessor subsidiary, Richmond Sanitary Service, has been a trusted partner with the City of San Pablo. In every sense we are truly a fabric of the community, and our partnership is generational, having employed second and third generation employees who proudly live and work in the city of San Pablo. This, in combination with our philosophy to provide competitive pay, health and welfare benefits including retirement, makes Richmond Sanitary Services/Republic Services an employer of choice in the community. Our recycling, composting and solid waste services combined with the administrative support, generates 40 of jobs in the City of San Pablo. As a Company and community partner, we recognize that technical training schools and the costs associated with acquiring the required skill sets and certifications for certain positions at our company can be a hardship. This recognition has led Republic Services to invest in and establish an internal Renewable Fuels Technician Training School and Commercial Driver's License program creating a pathway for potential employees to learn the necessary skills leading to a rewarding skill and trade.
Consistent on-the-job training and education is available to employees through partnerships with vendors and financial contributions to the Trade Unions Apprenticeship Program. It is our commitment to continuous training and development that creates lasting careers for our employees and the community.
Our investment in employee development and advancement leads to low employee turnover and overall, a positive employee experience.
