I don't know what the code is in CA, but my dishwasher and disposal are not on GFCI. What the electrician did in my house is put in a double pole breaker, and ran 12-3 to the outlet under the sink. So the two sockets are two different 120v circuits, one for the dishwasher and one for the disposal, and if one trips it shuts down both.
There's 6 separate circuits in my kitchen. Got to love codes. Stove, Fridge, Dishwasher, Disposal, and two for other outlets, even though there's only two outlets on the back wall and two on the island.

I will tell you Arc fault breakers hate power tools. Used to use a plug in drill and saw, just about every time I'd use them, especially the saw, it would trip the arc fault.
