42640.  (a) On or before July 1, 2002, after researching and
determining the best waste reduction practices for school districts
and schoolsites, the board shall develop models and school waste

local agencies to implement waste reduction programs. The models and
tools may include, but not be limited to, all of the following:
   (1) Waste prevention, recycling, composting, procurement, and
green building elements that, when properly implemented, create
hands-on learning experiences for pupils and result in a greater
reduction in schoolsite and school district solid waste generation
than currently exists.
   (2) Model waste reduction programs that may be implemented by the
local agencies, schoolsites, and school districts.
   (3) Environmental, economic, and educational benefits of
implementing waste reduction programs.

downloadable to local agencies, schools, and school districts from
