Construction & demolition debris recycling - 65% diversion required

All demolition projects, projects covered by CALGreen and building permits require and C&D Permit which mandates that 65% of all debris generated during the course of a project be recycled. 

Green Halo Now Required for City’s C&D program

Starting January 15, 2026 the City will use Green Halo to review and approve all Waste Management Plans and Waste Logs. Green Halo is an online system that allows contractors and project managers to identify local recycling facilities and waste haulers for their construction and demolition (C&D) project, track their project’s waste diversion rate, and store all recycling receipts to assist permittees in meeting California’s Green Building Standards. Please note: Failure to meet the mandated 65% diversion rate required by local and state law may result in a fine. 

Construction and Demolition permit and Wrecking permit applicants that submitted their application AFTER January 15, 2026* must submit a Waste Management Plan and Waste Log online through Green Halo.

  • DO NOT submit a WMP to Green Halo for a construction demolition permit until you've received an email from Green Halo with a link to your Plan.
  • Wrecking permits submitted after January 15, 2026 must follow the instructions below to submit a WMP in Green Halo. Wrecking Permits will NOT receive an email from Green Halo with a link.

Applications submitted BEFORE January 15, 2026 must submit the Waste Management Plan and Waste Log using the PDF forms and send to C&D@cityofsacramento.org.

* All Production Permit Applicants must continue to submit their Waste Management Plan and Waste Log using the Waste Management Plan and Waste Log PDF forms. Green Halo will be used to submit WMPs for Production Permits at a later date.
