On Monday, June 2, the Cal-Waste team will be conducting a visual inspection of residential waste carts throughout the City of Galt. This survey is part of the City’s efforts to meet State requirements under Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383), which aims to reduce organic waste and combat climate change.
As part of the inspection, Cal-Waste staff will briefly flip open cart lids and check for proper sorting of materials in the trash, recycling, and organics containers. Based on the contents of each cart, one of the following tags will be left behind:
These tags are educational only and are not citations or fines. The purpose is to help residents improve their waste sorting habits and support the City’s progress in reducing landfill waste.
Why It Matters:
Under SB 1383, all California cities must conduct annual contamination monitoring to ensure waste is being properly sorted. Recycling your organic material helps reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions and contributes to a healthier environment.
Thank you for doing your part to make Galt a cleaner, greener community.
For more information about SB 1383 and waste sorting guidelines, visit cityofgalt.org or contact the City’s Public Works Department at publicworks@cityofgalt.org.
This week, we honor the dedicated public works professionals who serve Galt every day. The theme “People, Purpose, Presence” highlights their commitment to our community’s well-being and the vital, often unseen role they play in our daily lives.
We want to hear from you! Tell us why you love Public Works for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to a local business plus a City of Galt swag bag filled with exclusive branded gear.
One winner will be selected. Enter by Thursday, May 29th, for your chance to win!

It’s important to drain your pool or spa properly to protect the environment and avoid costly issues.
Never drain pool or spa water into the street or storm drains. These systems flow directly to local creeks and rivers, and pool water often contains chemicals—like chlorine, algaecides, and other treatments—that can harm fish and wildlife. In fact, discharging chemically treated water into the storm drain is illegal.
Instead, use the sanitary sewer system, which routes water to a treatment plant designed to safely remove pool-related chemicals.
Want to know the proper steps for draining your pool or spa? Visit www.sacramentostormwater.org for detailed guidance and best practices. By doing your part, you’re helping protect Galt’s waterways and staying in compliance with environmental laws.
