Background and Findings
Statutory Authority
Public Resources Code (PRC) sections 48600 et seq. describes the California Oil Recycling Enhancement Act, which authorizes CalRecycle to develop and administer an oil collection and recycling program for local jurisdictions. Senate Bill 546 (Lowenthal, Chapter 353, Statutes of 2009) established the Used Oil Payment Program to replace the Used Oil Block Grant Program beginning with FY 2010-11.
PRC section 48653(a)(3) describes the payment calculation methodology and process for determining the total amount of funding to be made available. If sufficient funds are not available to initially issue full funding, one-half of the amount that remains in the fund after the expenditures are made pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) and subdivision (b) will be made available for the implementation of local used oil collection programs. Payment amounts are determined by multiplying the total annual funding amount by the fraction equal to the population of cities and counties that are eligible for payments pursuant to section 48690, divided by the population of the state using the most recent population estimates provided by the Department of Finance.
Program Background
The Program provides, among other things, funding to assist local governments in developing and maintaining an on-going used oil and used oil filter collection/recycling program for their communities. CalRecycle developed Guidelines, which further describe eligibility, payment process, and other aspects of program administration.
Criteria and Process
The Notice of Funds Available was placed on the CalRecycle website on May 27, 2025, with an appropriate notice sent to interested parties.
Applications were due June 30, 2025, with a secondary due date of July 28, 2025, for authorizing documentation submission. CalRecycle received 185 applications and staff is recommending 184 applications for funding. One application was withdrawn after CalRecycle staff notified the applicant it did not comply with eligibility requirements. A total of 483 jurisdictions, including individual applicants and participants in regions applications, will receive funding.
Tables 2 and 3 identify the recommended applicants for OPP16 Cycle payments. Payments are calculated per capita using the Department of Finance's population statistics. Each city is eligible to receive a minimum of $5,000 or an amount calculated by CalRecycle, on a per capita basis, whichever is greater. Each county is eligible to receive a minimum of $10,000 or an amount calculated by CalRecycle, on a per capita basis, whichever is greater.
The FY 2025-26 allocated funds will be distributed by the State Controller's Office to recipients in winter 2025 or spring 2026. Applicants who requested early payment must meet the established criteria to be eligible. All funds shall be available for expenditure until June 30, 2027, and are subject to the annual reporting requirement starting in August 2026.
