Data about the amount of solid waste in San Mateo County by the waste's destination. Destination means the county where the waste was disposed. Alternative Daily Cover (ADC) means CalRecycle-approved materials other than soil used as a temporary overlay on an exposed landfill face.

ADC is measured in tons. CalRecycle-approved materials other than soil used as a temporary overlay on an exposed landfill face. Generally, these materials must be processed so that they do not allow gaps in the face surface, which would provide breeding grounds for insects and vermin. Public Resources Code section 41781.3 stipulates this practice is recycling, not disposal, and authorizes CalRecycle to adopt regulations, such as Title 27 California Code of Regulations, section 20690. Approved materials include processed green materials, sludge, ash and kiln residue, compost, construction and demolition debris, and special foams and fabrics. Also see Local Enforcement Agency (LEA) Advisory #48.

Data is based upon information reported by permitted facility operators and compiled by County/Regional Agency disposal reporting coordinators. Only finalized data are shown in these reports.

Water samples from natural recreational waters in San Mateo County are sampled each week for concentrations of indicator bacteria including E. Coli, Enterococcus, and Coliform bacteria. If concentrations of indicator bacteria exceed State or County standards, the area is posted to warn users that they may become ill if they engage in water contact activities in the posted area.

More information about results and testing can be found on the San Mateo County Health System site: http://smchealth.org/environ/beaches

This dataset contains readings from January, 2012 to the present and is updated weekly.

Data by city showing energy contribution to greenhouse gas emissions in the County. This data is part of the Regionally Integrated Climate Action Planning Suite (RICAPS) program.

Each city in San Mateo County has the opportunity to develop its own Climate Action Plan (CAP) using tools developed by C/CAG in conjunction with DNV KEMA https://www.dnvgl.com/ and Hara. http://www.verisae.com/default.aspx. This project was funded by grants from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). Climate Action Plans developed from these tools will meet BAAQMD's California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines for a Qualified Greenhouse Gas Reduction
Strategy.

Countywide greenhouse gas emission data were inventoried for 2005 and 2010. Methodologies have changed between inventories. Emissions from water use and freight trains are new inclusions in the 2010 protocol. Agriculture emissions were included in Transportation - Off-Road Equipment for 2010.
