Trashing food scraps? This city will fine you - Environment- msnbc.com
San Francisco's Board of Supervisors voted 9-2 to pass the nation's toughest recycling law for the city of San Francisco. Those who do not properly separate their garbage, including composting food scraps, will be fined $100.
...
Waste collectors will not pick through anyone's garbage, said Robert Reed, a spokesman for Sunset Scavenger Co., which handles the city's recyclables. If the wrong kind of materials are noticed while a bin is being emptied, workers will leave what Reed called "a love note," to let customers know they are not with the program.
