HASC recently provided testimony at a stakeholder meeting hosted by the City of Los Angeles, Department of Public Works, Sanitation Bureau.  The Bureau is currently considering a plan that would potentially change the current waste collection environment for commercial properties, including hospitals, within Los Angeles.  The Bureau believes 200 million tons of recycled materials are still entering our landfills and hopes to use the new plan to divert 70 percent of this waste by 2013.

This year, working with local EMS Administrators (LEMSA), the ReddiNet team enhanced its capacity to handle more system users and more transactions. With the LEMSA’s guidance, ReddiNet set a new standard as the first supplier to design a custom all-hazards load testing tool, and the first to establish a capacity standard specifically for California hospitals responding to an earthquake.
