(RMDZ) program is a partnership of local governments and the
California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB), created to provide incentives to businesses that use secondary materials from the waste stream as feedstock for their manufacturing processes.
The RMDZs are geographic areas designated by the California Integrated Waste Management Board at the request of local governments.
The RMDZ program combines recycling with economic development to fuel new businesses, expand existing ones, and create jobs.
By being part of the RMDZ, businesses can cut costs and increase profits.
Recycling-based manufacturers located in RMDZs are eligible to apply for low-interest loans, financial assistance, product marketing, and permitting assistance provided by local zone administrators and by the Board's Recycling Business Assistance Referral Team (R-Team).
In addition to loans, the RMDZs offer local government incentives including relaxed building codes and zoning laws, streamlined local permit processes, reduced taxes and licensing, and increased and consistent secondary material feedstock supply.
