What is SABRC (State Agency Buy Recycled Campaign)?
CIWMB implements California Public Contract Code sections 12200-12320 that require State agencies to purchase recycled products. State agencies are mandated to ensure that at least 50 percent of the dollars spent on products within 11 product categories, and 25 percent of the dollars spent on products in a twelfth category, are spent on recycled-content products.
