IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0OUR WASTE DIVERSION PROGRAMS HAVE EXPANDED BEYOND SCHOOLS, WHERE WE CONTINUE TO OFFER RECYCLING AND WASTE SORTING PRESENTATIONS TO SCHOOL CHILDREN, AND WORK WITH SCHOOLS TO REDUCE FOOD WASTE. OUR NEW FOOD CYCLE PROGRAM, AVAILABLE TO ENCINITAS RESIDENTS AND SMALL BUSINESSES, ALLOWS PARTICIPANTS TO DIVERT FOOD SCRAPS FROM THE LANDFILL BY BRINGING THEM TO SOLANA CENTER FOR COMPOSTING. AT THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS, WE HAVE THE ECO LEARNING LAB, A REPURPOSED SHIPPING CONTAINER WITH A HANDS-ON DISPLAY CENTER TO EDUCATE VISITORS ON SUSTAINABLE LIVING PRACTICES, INCLUDING COMPOSTING, RECYCLING, RAINWATER HARVESTING, GREY WATER SYSTEMS, WATERSHED PROTECTION, SOLAR ENERGY AND MORE. ALSO AT THE FAIRGROUNDS IS THE NEW MID-SCALE COMPOSTING DEMO CENTER, WHICH HAS WORKING DISPLAYS OF DIFFERENT METHODS THAT RESTAURANTS, GROCERY STORES, SCHOOLS AND OFFICE CAFETERIAS CAN USE TO KEEP THEIR ORGANIC WASTE OUT OF LANDFILLS, AS REQUIRED BY CALIFORNIA LAW.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0SOLANA CENTER WATER PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION PROGRAMS, WHICH FOCUSED ON KEEPING MOTOR OIL, ANIMAL MANURE AND OTHER POLLUTANTS OUT OF OUR WATERSHEDS, REACHED THE COMMUNITY THROUGH SCHOOL PRESENTATIONS, WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS. ONE TYPE OF EVENT ENCOURAGED RESIDENTS TO RECYCLE THEIR MOTOR OIL BY BRINGING IN USED OIL FILTERS AND RECEIVING A FREE REPLACEMENT IN EXCHANGE. ANOTHER PROGRAM WAS SELLING 375 DISCOUNTED RAIN BARRELS TO COUNTY RESIDENTS. THE RAIN BARRELS ARE USED TO COLLECT RAINWATER, WHICH REDUCES BOTH STORM WATER RUNOFF AND THE NEED TO USE EXPENSIVE AND RESOURCE-INTENSIVE TREATED WATER FOR LANDSCAPE USES.
