The RMDZs are geographic areas designated by the California Integrated Waste Management Board at the request of local governments. There are 40 zones in California, covering much of the state from the Oregon border to San Diego. The RMDZ program combines recycling with economic development to fuel new businesses and create jobs. In addition to loans, the Board offers financial assistance, product marketing, and permitting assistance. Local government incentives include relaxed building codes and zoning laws, streamlined local permit processes, reduced taxes and licensing, and increased and consistent secondary material feedstock supply.
Local incentives vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
