California state law requires that each county adopt a County Integrated Waste Management Plan (CoIWMP) that serves as a roadmap to approaching countywide solid waste and recycling issues, including landfill needs. The Alameda County Waste Management Authority is in the process of updating the Countywide Element of the CoIWMP, a key component of the Plan that includes goals, objectives, and policies to guide decision making and desired outcomes for the Agency’s work.
