California State Law AB 2176 requires recycling to be available and convenient to the public attending large venues and events attracting 2,000 or more attendees per day or charging an entrance fee, while promoting planning for recycling at those locations during design and operation.
If your event meets the above requirements you must complete required recycling documentation in order to obtain a community event permit from all City Hall permit departments within the CCCSWA service area: Walnut Creek, Orinda, Moraga, Lafayette, Danville, and unincorporated areas including Alamo and Blackhawk.
