              The Food Service Waste Reduction ordinance, effective June 1, 2007, prohibits any establishment that serves food prepared in San Francisco from using polystyrene foam (Styrofoam) to-go containers. The Ordinance further requires that any containers used be either recyclable or compostable in the City's programs.
