On April 22, 2015, Earth Day, Mayor Bill de Blasio released One New York, a strategic roadmap for a strong, just city grounded in sustainability, resiliency, and equity. Integral to One New York is a commitment to achieve Zero Waste to Landfills by 2030. The NYC Organics Collection pilot program, currently being implemented by the Department of Sanitation (DSNY) pursuant to Local Law 77 of 2013, positions the city to develop an informed, pragmatic and aggressive plan to divert organice waste in pursuit of this ambitious goal. Pursuant to this requirement, DSNY submits Local Law 77 Diversion Report III, covering the seven month period from Oct 2014 through April 2015.
Curbside and Containerized collection routes serve individual districts; trucks on these routes pass over scales each day which transmit tonnage data into DSNY's centralized computer system. For this reason, monthly statistics, by Community Districts, can be tracked and reported.
This fourth biennial Compliance Report dated April 2015, is submitted to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) in accordance with the provisions of NYCRR Title 6 Part 360-15.12.
