Your business may be eligible to receive a Solid Waste Exemption. Certain waste materials may be salvaged for continued use, or recovered and reused for another purpose that extends the value of that materials. Some waste recovery, reuse or repurposing activities may not require a permit, as long as the activity does not cause a hazard to human health, a hazard to the environment or a public nuisance. Although the activities may be exempt from solid waste permitting requirements, there may be criteria you must meet to be granted this exemption. Examples of common activities and wastes include beneficial use, clean fill, composting, construction and demolition waste, NORM and TENORM.
