About the JPA The purpose of the Marin Hazardous and Solid Waste JPA is to provide household hazardous waste collection, recycling and disposal information, ensure Marin's compliance with State recycling mandates and other education for the citizens and businesses of Marin. The JPA is administrated by the Marin County Department of Public Works/Waste Management. Citizen and industry review is provided by the AB 939 Local Task Force.

History Since 1990, Marin's public agencies and private waste haulers and facility operators have worked together to develop Marin's Integrated Waste Management Plan and to implement the recycling programs necessary to meet the States 25% and 50% mandates. The JPA is comprised of the cities and towns of Belvedere, Corte Madera, Fairfax, Larkspur, Mill Valley, Novato, Ross, San Anselmo, San Rafael, Sausalito, and Tiburon, and the County of Marin. The purpose of the JPA is to ensure Marin's compliance with the California Integrated Waste Management Act and its waste reduction mandates of 25% and 50 %. In 1997 the CIWMB recognized the JPA as a Regional Agency. This Regional Agency status allows the JPA members to report to the State as one political body instead of 12 as was previously required. more on the history of the JPA
