Summary

NOTICE OF PUBLIC WORKSHOP 

Overview 

 

The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) will be holding a hybrid public workshop to consult with the public, recycling center operators, the regulated community, and other interested persons to solicit feedback on developing regulatory amendments to allow recycling centers to utilize electronic signatures on a consumer transaction receipt or consumer transaction log.  

 

Section 2525(a)(6) of Title 14, California Code of Regulations requires recycling centers to obtain the printed name and signature of the person selling or donating material, or a statement explaining why such could not be obtained. 

 

How to Participate in the Workshop 

 

CalRecycle will hold the hybrid public workshop starting at 1:00 PM on February 2, 2023, to solicit stakeholder feedback on this matter. The public workshop will be accessible in person in the Byron Sher Auditorium located on the 2nd floor of the CalRecycle headquarters at 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California. The Byron Sher Auditorium is wheelchair accessible. The public workshop will also be accessible virtually via Zoom. Instructions for how to access the Zoom meeting are included below.

-   Do you take a photo of consumer’s ID or match signature to ID? 

-   If a customer refused to sign digitally, what do you do? 

-   How long can a digital signature be stored/preserved? 

-   From what vendors did you purchase a system that captures this information?
