PROPOSED

PUBLIC NOTICE

501 Regulations of the Delaware Solid Waste Authority

Pursuant to 7 Delaware Code, Sections 6403, 6404, 6406 and other pertinent provisions of 7 Delaware Code, Chapter 64; the Delaware Solid Waste Authority (“DSWA”) is proposing amendments to the Regulations of the Delaware Solid Waste Authority (the “Regulations”) to modify the Regulations last amended effective September 10, 2013.

***Notice of Hearing: A public hearing will be held immediately following the hearing scheduled at 3:00 p.m. November 2, 2015, addressing contemporaneous amendments to the Statewide Solid Waste Management Plan, in the Corporate Training Center, Education and Technology Meeting Room, Delaware Technical and Community College Terry Campus, 100 Campus Drive, Dover, DE 19904. The hearing is to provide an opportunity for public comment on the proposed amendments.

Written Comments: The DSWA will receive written comments, suggestions briefs or other written material until the close of business, November 17, 2015. Written comments, suggestions, compilations of data or other written material shall be submitted to Michael D. Parkowski, Chief of Business Services and Government Relations, Delaware Solid Waste Authority, 1128 South Bradford Street, Dover, Delaware 19904. Anyone wishing to obtain a copy of the proposed amendments may obtain a copy from the Delaware Solid Waste Authority, 1128 South Bradford Street, Dover, Delaware 19904, (302) 739-5361.

Summary of Proposed Changes: Pursuant to 7 Delaware Code, Chapter 64, the DSWA is authorized to adopt and amend regulations to effectuate the powers, purposes and policies set forth in said Chapter 64. Moreover, the DSWA is expressly authorized, pursuant to 7 Del.C. §6422(b) to adopt regulations that have the effect of requiring all owners and occupiers of land in Delaware to use the services and facilities of the DSWA. Consistent with this authority, the proposed amendments will have the effect of requiring most solid waste generated in the State of Delaware to be delivered to a DSWA facility.

Background and Purpose: The Delaware Solid Waste Authority (“DSWA”) was established by the Delaware General Assembly in 1975 as a statewide solid waste authority, a body politic and corporate constituting a public instrumentality of the State created to perform essential public and governmental functions. The findings, policies and purposes of the enabling legislation recognized among other things the need for the people of the state to have a clean and wholesome environment through the statewide management of solid waste generated in Delaware. Such statewide management includes the establishment of programs for collection and disposal of solid waste and the recovery of and reuse of discarded materials through recycling and beneficial use.

In discharging its responsibility, DSWA undertakes planning, research and development functions utilizing professional technical and management employees, and a support staff. The activities of DSWA are subject to the oversight and control of a seven (7) person Board of Directors, each Director being appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate.

DSWA has been granted the authority to adopt regulations and establish a licensing program for collectors of solid waste. Enforcement powers granted to DSWA include the assessment of civil penalties, license suspension or revocation, and injunctive relief.

In order to fund the comprehensive activities authorized by the General Assembly, DSWA has been empowered to establish user fees for the services it provides and to borrow money through bond financing and otherwise. DSWA receives no State or federal funding, and the full faith and credit of the State is not pledged for any of DSWA’s debt. To assure the proper management of solid waste and provide sufficient financial support for its programs, DSWA is authorized to control the collection, transportation, storage and disposal of solid waste throughout the State.

DSWA has been provided extensive authority to utilize services provided by the private sector and to engage in cooperative arrangements with other State entities, counties and municipalities. DSWA has also been charged with establishing an extensive recycling program and a public education program. Included in the recycling initiative is the removal of materials from the solid waste stream which are harmful to the environment, and which cannot be recycled, so that they are disposed in an authorized manner.

In carrying out its broad statewide responsibilities to comprehensively manage solid waste, DSWA has undertaken the following activities:

1.) The design, construction and operation of a modern landfill at Cherry Island to serve the needs of New Castle County. The landfill includes environmental protective measures such as a leachate collection system and a landfill gas recovery system. The expansion of the landfill is newly completed and has been financed through multiple bond issuances. With the waste diversion measures currently in place the capacity of the landfill is not expected to be reached until 2046.

2. The acquisition, retrofitting and operation of a landfill gas processing plant at Cherry Island. The processing plant produces commercial quality methane gas which is transported by pipeline to power various green energy projects in New Castle County.

3. The design, construction and operation of a solid waste transfer station at Pine Tree Corners in New Castle County. The transfer station serves the Middletown – Odessa – Townsend area and the solid waste delivered to this facility is transferred to the DSWA landfill at Sandtown in order to preserve landfill space at Cherry Island.

4. The design, construction and operation of a modern landfill at Sandtown to serve the needs of Kent County. The landfill includes environmental protective measures such as a leachate collection system and a landfill gas recovery system. The landfill gas is sold to a private company which uses the gas as fuel to operate an electric generating facility. An expansion of the landfill is newly completed and has been financed through multiple bond issuances. The capacity of the landfill with expansions is not expected to be reached until 2059.

5. The design, construction and operation of a solid waste transfer station at Milford. The solid waste delivered to this facility is transferred to the DSWA landfill at Sandtown.

6. The design, construction and operation of a modern landfill at Jones Crossroads to serve the needs of Sussex County. The landfill includes environmental protective measures such as a leachate collection system and a landfill gas recovery system. The landfill gas is sold to a private company which uses the gas as a fuel to operate an electric generating facility. An expansion of the landfill is newly completed and has been financed through multiple bond issuances. The capacity of the landfill with expansions is not expected to be reached until 2032.

7. The design, construction and operation of a solid waste transfer station at Route 5. The transfer station serves the Lewes – Rehoboth – Georgetown area and the solid waste delivered to the facility is transferred to the DSWA landfill at Jones Crossroads.

8. The operation of a drop-off recycling program with 60 drop-off centers statewide. The recyclables collected are deposited in a single stream with the exception of cardboard, household batteries, motor oil, oil filters and textiles which are separated.

9. Contracting for the design and operation of material recovery facilities at the former landfill at Pigeon Point, New Castle County, Delaware. One of these facilities is designed to process, in a single stream, household and commercial recyclables and to produce from this single stream various marketable commodities such as fiber, plastics and metals. The other facility is designed to process construction and demolition waste and convert this waste into saleable commodities or, instead, alternative daily cover for sanitary landfills.

10. The design, construction and operation of yard waste composting systems at the Cherry Island and Jones Crossroads landfills, and the operation of yard waste mulching systems at all DSWA landfills.

11. Issuing and servicing approximately $130 million in bonds issued between 2006 and 2010.

By establishing and maintaining multiple facilities throughout Delaware, DSWA provides an indispensable convenience to the public and, in so doing, prevents the air pollution, noise pollution and road congestion that would otherwise result if haulers and the public were forced to travel long distances to deposit waste. Additionally, many of the DSWA’s activities are essential waste disposal functions that do not result in revenue generation and are not typically performed by private entities in the waste disposal business. These activities include:

1. The establishment and operation of a public education and public outreach program which includes school and community presentations, distribution of books and educational materials, participation in public events, use of slogans and themes, use of a mascot, and public advertising.

2. Coordination and participation in solid waste and recycling activities with State, county, municipal, local and civic organizations throughout the State.

3. The collection and proper disposal of household hazardous wastes (HHW), electronic goods (EGR), and document shredding at eighteen scheduled Saturday events conducted throughout the State as well 52 HHW and EGR events held once a week in each county.

4. The operation of a recycling program at DSWA transfer stations and landfills which involves the separation and recycling of tires, drywall, textiles, used oil, oil filters, and white goods including refrigerators that must be drained of chlorofluorocarbons.

The proposed amendments to the Regulations, and the contemporaneous proposed amendments to the Statewide Solid Waste Management Plan, will allow DSWA to better control and manage the collection of solid waste in Delaware, assure the usage of the facilities provided by DSWA, and provide the means of financially supporting the referenced activities conducted under the authority and dictates of DSWA’s enabling legislation. The proposed amendments will enhance DSWA’s ability to monitor, evaluate and police the system of solid waste management in Delaware, including such issues as proper waste disposal, waste volume reduction, use of recycling programs and the full capture of those recyclables in the future.

The proposed amendments also restore a restriction regarding the types of vehicles that newly licensed haulers will be permitted to use, in order to address concerns over roadside litter and leakage from vehicles and containers not designed to store and transport municipal solid waste. This restriction will be applicable only to new licensees and will not apply to haulers already licensed at the time of the effective date of these regulations.

In order for waste to qualify under this subsection 4.3.10, the Licensee transporting such waste must provide a written notification from the industrial facility to the DSWA stating: (i) the name and location of the industrial facility in Delaware; (ii) the industrial facility’s companywide policy; (iii) the date and manner by which such companywide policy was adopted; and (iv) the name and location of the waste to energy plant to which the waste materials are being transported. The Licensee seeking to take advantage of this Subsection 4.3.10 must deliver the notice to the DSWA before transporting waste materials to a waste to energy plant.

5.1 Except as provided in Section 5.2, any person, other than a municipality and any person under an agreement with a municipality with respect to solid waste that must be delivered to a DSWA facility pursuant to Section 4.1, may dispose of the following at a DSWA facility (unless the CEO or his designee determines such waste would have an adverse effect in the DSWA facility) or other facility authorized to receive such waste: solid waste, including, but not limited to yard waste, dry waste, and recyclable materials.

5.2 Every person shall deliver solid waste to a DSWA facility to the extent so required by any agreement between such person, or its assignee, and DSWA.

5.3 No person shall deliver to a DSWA facility any waste listed in Section 4.2 of these regulations.

6.1 Any person causing or allowing special solid waste to be delivered to any DSWA facility shall obtain the approval of DSWA prior to commencement of such delivery; provided however, that where more than one person is involved in the generation and delivery of a particular special solid waste, approval of DSWA obtained by one person shall be sufficient. DSWA has adopted a policy on special solid wastes which provides detailed information regarding the approval process.

6.2 In the event that there are any risks or additional costs involved in accepting any special solid wastes, the CEO may impose a special solid waste disposal surcharge to compensate DSWA for such risks and additional costs, including administrative expenses and overhead. The following factors shall be considered in determining the amount of such special solid waste surcharge:

6.2.1 Quantity of waste to be disposed of;

6.2.2 Degree of risk associated with such disposal;

6.2.3 Additional handling, processing and disposal costs;

6.2.4 Additional administrative expenses and overhead;

6.2.5 Additional environmental protection controls including monitoring.

6.3 The special solid waste surcharge shall be set by the CEO, without notice and public hearing thereon, and may be done on a case by case basis.

6.4 Any person causing or allowing special solid waste to be delivered to a DSWA facility operated by or on behalf of DSWA shall be deemed to have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless DSWA from any liability arising from disposal of such special solid waste and to have agreed to reimburse DSWA for any costs reasonably incurred to protect against or reduce any risk resulting therefrom; provided, however, such person, if such person has not caused or allowed the delivery of a hazardous substance within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation Liability Act (CERCLA), as amended, 42 USC Section 9601, et.seq., shall not be liable under this subsection to DSWA for harm or damage caused by the negligence of DSWA.

6.5 It shall be the responsibility of each generator of special solid waste, in addition to the person collecting, transporting and delivering it, to obtain the approval of DSWA for disposal of special solid waste at the DSWA facility and to assure that such waste is delivered to the DSWA facility for disposal. Such solid waste shall not be disposed in a DSWA facility if:

6.5.1 DSWA refuses to approve the disposal of such waste at a DSWA facility; or

6.5.2 the generator of such waste determines or agrees to have such waste disposed of at another properly licensed or permitted facility;

6.5.3 the solid waste is described in § 4.2.

6.6 Any person aggrieved by a determination of the CEO or his designee, under this Article or Sections 4.2 and 4.3, may seek review thereof by the Directors of DSWA in accordance with the Act, and these Regulations.

7.1 All vehicles entering a DSWA facility to deliver solid waste, dry waste, construction and demolition waste or recyclable materials, shall proceed to the appropriate scale. Each vehicle shall come to a full stop before driving onto the scale, for weighing in or for weighing out. Quick stopping or starting on the scales will not be permitted. All personnel must remain in the vehicle unless directed by the Weighmaster to come to the scale house window. After weighing, the vehicle must not leave the scales until authorized to do so by the Weighmaster and must proceed to the designated area at the DSWA facility. In the event that an invoice generated from the charging of fees or user charges at a DSWA facility is not paid in accordance with DSWA credit policies the License may be revoked or suspended. Before the License revocation and/or denial of use, the user may have a hearing before the Directors of DSWA, and the user shall be given at least fifteen (15) days notice of the hearing. The procedure for obtaining and holding the hearing shall be as set forth in these Regulations.

7.2 After weighing and at the direction of the Weighmaster or other DSWA representative, each vehicle shall proceed to the area designated. Spotters at the landfill face or on the tipping floor shall direct the vehicles to a special loading/unloading location. Vehicle drivers shall maintain safe distances from other vehicles at all times while at a DSWA facility. At small load facilities, waste shall be disposed only in the containers that have been provided. The contents of each vehicle shall be discharged as quickly as possible and the vehicle shall leave as directed by the operating contractor. Clean-up is allowed only at designated locations. No roll-off boxes will be dropped anywhere in a DSWA facility without the express approval from a DSWA representative.

7.3 Each vehicle operator shall exercise caution, due care, and safe procedures in all operations at all DSWA facilities. Vehicle drivers who disregard the posted speed limits on a DSWA facility may be denied access to any DSWA facility. Vehicle operators shall follow directions from the DSWA or its representative.

7.4 No hand sorting, picking over, or salvaging of solid waste, dry waste or recyclable materials will be permitted at any time, without specific DSWA approval.

7.5 All vehicle operators and other personnel proceed onto the delivery area or location at their own risk. DSWA shall not be liable for acts or omissions of its contractors, persons using a DSWA facility, or other third persons in or about a DSWA facility.

7.6 No loitering will be permitted in any DSWA facility.

7.7 DSWA reserves the right to redirect vehicles to alternate locations within the DSWA facility, if for any reason in the opinion of DSWA's representative, the original location cannot handle the load or type of material.

7.8 There shall be no smoking at any DSWA facility.

7.9 The DSWA from time to time may adopt and post other rules for DSWA facilities. It is the responsibility of Licensees and other persons using DSWA facilities to familiarize themselves with and to obey such rules.

7.10 Any vehicle that is immobile and obstructing facility operations may be moved to a nonconflicting area by DSWA representatives after notifying the Licensee's driver. The Licensee's driver will be given reasonable time to contact his office either through radio or telephone. If the problem vehicle poses a safety or fire hazard, it will be removed immediately after giving notice to the driver. Licensee shall also give written instructions to drivers on proper procedures for towing.

7.11 To prevent material from falling off vehicles and to minimize litter, all vehicles, including but not limited to pick-up trucks, entering a DSWA facility shall be sufficiently secured through the use of tarpaulins or ropes or netting or enclosures sufficient to prevent the material from falling off the vehicles. Vehicles shall remain secured until reaching the designated untarping area at the DSWA facility.

7.12 DSWA shall have the right to require unloading of the contents of any vehicle at a DSWA facility for the purpose of inspection.

7.13 If any prohibited wastes, hazardous wastes, explosives, toxic substance, pathological and infectious wastes, radioactive wastes are found, then the person delivering such waste to a DSWA facility shall be subject to the sanctions that may be imposed under Section 10.0 and other applicable laws and regulations and that person shall be notified and given an opportunity to properly remove all of the waste emptied from the solid waste collection vehicle at his expense. If that is not accomplished within four (4) hours (or the end of the facility business hours, whichever is greater) of such notice, which shall be either in person or by telephone, or, if the person cannot be reached immediately, either in person or by telephone, DSWA may proceed to arrange for removal and proper disposal of the entire load and the person who delivered such material to the DSWA facility shall be liable to DSWA for all costs incurred by DSWA in arranging for proper disposal, including, without limitation, DSWA's out-of-pocket expenses, contractor's fees, disposal costs, overhead supervisory costs, legal fees, testing costs, and transportation costs.

8.1 Any person who owns or operates a program or facility within the State of Delaware for the purpose of recycling or resources recovery of materials in excess of 5 tons annually shall file with DSWA an annual registration statement in the form which appears as Attachment C to these regulations. Such statement shall be filed no later than February 1 of each year.

The annual report shall contain a certification from the Licensee that to the best of the Licensee's knowledge, the materials recovered from Recyclables delivered to such facility were sold or delivered into the market for recovered materials and were not landfilled.

8.4 Waste residue resulting from recycling, resources recovery or beneficial use of Delaware solid waste and dry waste (including construction and demolition waste) which is generated from such activities conducted within the State of Delaware shall not be considered recyclable materials for purposes of this Regulation and the Delaware Code.
