*Assistance filling out Construction Waste Management Plan (CWMP) applications is available over the phone by calling (909) 386-8701 or in-person at the Solid Waste Management Division office at 222 W.

Per the 2019 CALGreen code, 65% of construction and demolition (C&D) materials must be diverted away from the landfill by either recycling or reusing materials.

The Construction Waste Management Plan is submitted prior to the start of your project. The purpose of this plan is to provide an estimation of how much construction debris will be generated from your project and describe how it will be managed. At the conclusion of the project, you will be required to submit waste hauler invoices, receipts from recycling facilities, landfills, or a reuse certification, as applicable.

*  Web browser must be up to date: Internet Explorer 11 and above, Google Chrome 42 and above, Firefox 3.7 and above.

At the bottom of each page applicants will have an opportunity to “Save and resume later” or “Continue Application.” If you need to pause working on the application, make sure to select "Save and resume later" so you do not lose the information already filled in.

Once payment (credit card or bank routing information) has been received after completing the application, please allow 3-4 business days for SWMD staff review of the application. If staff has any questions or proposed revisions regarding your application, you will receive a call and/or email. You will receive a confirmation email once your waste management plan has been approved and SWMD staff will mark the condition as met in your EZOP building permit record.
