As part of an ongoing process, all departments in the City of Alameda shall conduct a review of existing specifications to determine whether they require either the use of products manufactured from virgin materials or preclude the use of recycled products, reusable products, or products designed to be recycled. 2. In the event that said specifications do preclude the use of recycled products or require the use of virgin materials, then they shall be eliminated or modified appropriately to permit and prefer use of recycled products, unless the department or agency can demonstrate that recycled products would not achieve a necessary performance standard or that the procedures by which these products are produced are environmentally harmful. 3. Commodities and materials purchased in fulfillment of contracts with the City of Alameda shall be subject to this policy to the maximum extent feasible and as adopted specifications and standards allow. 4. As part of a continuous process and as information becomes available, the appropriate City of Alameda departments shall update product specifications and incorporate requirements for the use of recycled materials, reusable products, products that contribute to source reduction and products designed to be recycled to the maximum practicable extent, unless it may be demonstrated that the performance of these products will be unsatisfactory, or that the product will negatively impact health, safety or operational efficiency. 5. The existing inventory of products manufactured from virgin materials or materials not recyclable or reusable should continue to be used until said inventories are depleted, at which time they will be replaced with products purchased under the requirements of this policy. 6. When feasible, the City of Alameda shall encourage the use of recycled materials, reusable products, products designed to be recycled and products that due to their durability, quality and/or packaging, support source reduction efforts. Whenever practicable the City of Alameda shall purchase products that at a minimum meet the State of California's definition of 'recycled products', i.e., at least 10% post-consumer recovered material, and at least 50% total recovered secondary waste. For other definitions, refer to Attachment A. 7. To ensure the recycled content of a product, the City of Alameda shall establish a monitoring mechanism. For example, vendors of paper products shall certify to the City of Alameda that the recycled paper products offered contain at least 10% post-consumer recovered material, and at least 50% total recovered secondary waste, unless the product is clearly labeled by the manufacturer as to the recycled content. 8. The City of Alameda shall encourage consultants, contractors and vendors doing business with it to use only recycled paper, printed on two sides when appropriate, for any reports or studies submitted to it, provided that recycled paper is available at a reasonable cost. 9. When recycled products are used, reasonable efforts shall be undertaken to label the products to indicate that they contain recycled materials. 10. The Public Works Department's Waste Management and Recycling Program shall be assigned to assess and coordinate the implementation of this policy. ATTACHMENT A DEFINITIONS Recycled paper product: a paper product with no less than 50 percent of its total weight consisting of secondary and post- consumer waste, with no less than 10 percent of its total weight consisting of post-consumer recovered material. Recycling: the process of collecting, sorting, cleansing, treating and reconstituting materials that would otherwise become solid waste, and returning them to the economic mainstream in the form of raw material for new, reused or reconstituted products which meet the quality standards necessary to be used in the marketplace.

Post-consumer recovered material: a finished material which would have been disposed of as a solid waste, having completed its life cycle as a consumer item; does not include manufacturing wastes. Recycled percentage: a number from 0 to 100 that indicates the portion of a certain material within a product that is derived from secondary waste.
