What is the basis for the DRS?
The creation of a Disposal Reporting System (DRS) and the obligation of facilities and haulers to report solid waste origin and tonnage information is mandated by California Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 41821.5.Title 14, Chapter 9, Article 9.2 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) govern the rules and structure of DRS. All records in the DRS database use data from solid waste haulers, transfer stations, or permitted disposal facilities (including transformation facilities). The data are compiled and triple-checked by CIWMB staff before being displayed on the web.
