TIRE-DERIVED PRODUCTS PREFERENCE

Per Public Resources Code (PRC) section 42890 et seq., a 5 percent (5%) recycle preference is available for recycled tire products (also known as tire-derived products). When evaluating bids, application of the tire recycle preference is only applicable if both virgin products and recycled content products (RCP) are acceptable for a line item. Should only recycled content products be bid, then the preference is not calculated. Should a solicitation include a mix of line items containing both qualified and non-qualified tire-derived RCPs, the preference shall only apply to qualified line items. If line item awards are made, the preference shall be applied, to the extent possible, so as to maximize award to bidders proposing recycled tire products (PRC section 42892).

RECYCLED CONTENT PRODUCTS

State agencies are required to report purchases in many product categories. In order to comply with those requirements, suppliers are required to complete and return the attached Postconsumer Recycled-Content Certification form (CalRecycle 74) with their bid response. Failure to complete and return the form may disqualify your bid from consideration. More information is located at:

Purchasing Agent: PO #:

Phone: E-mail:

The State Agency Buy Recycled Campaign (SABRC) is a state mandated program that requires the reporting of all purchases made within 16 specified product categories. All state agencies are required to verify the recycled-content of all products purchased within each of these categories.

All businesses shall certify the minimum percentage in writing to the contracting officer or his or her representative, if not the exact percentage, of postconsumer recycled-content (PCRC) material in the products, materials, goods, or supplies offered or sold to the State regardless of whether the product meets the minimum content requirements specified in law (see reverse side). The certification shall be furnished under penalty of perjury. The certification shall be provided regardless of content, even if the product contains no recycled material. A State agency may waive the certification requirement if the percentage of postconsumer material in the products, materials, goods, or supplies can be verified in a written advertisement, including, but not limited to, a product label, a catalog, or a manufacturer or vendor Internet website.
