Step 1:
The Ordinance requirements apply to projects within the unincorporated areas of the County of Los Angeles. To begin the permit process, please obtain a Recycling and Reuse Plan from the Forms and Resources page. If further advisement is needed, please contact the Construction & Demolition Unit at (626) 458-3517.

Step 2:
Submit the Recycling and Reuse Plan. Forms may be submitted via fax at (626) 737-1723, via the U. S. Postal Service or a parcel service, or at the public counter of the Environmental Programs Division. The public counter is open from Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and is located at 900 South Fremont Avenue, Annex Building 3rd Floor, Alhambra. Once the Recycling and Reuse Plan is approved, please file a copy with Building & Safety to obtain clearance on the required permit(s).

Step 3:
If anything changes, submit an Amendment to the Construction & Demolition Unit. An Amendment must be filed to request additional time to complete a project or to request a change of facilities. The Construction & Demolition Unit must first approve the facilities to be used. The use of a facility which has not been approved may lead to a violation.

Step 4:
Submit a Final Compliance Report to the Construction & Demolition Unit within 45 days of project completion. Failure to file a Final compliance Report upon the completion of a project is in itself a violation.
