BACKGROUND: At the Council meeting of December 16, 1992, the City Council considered the introduction of an ordinance which would regulate haulers of industrial refuse. However, the Council was desirous of making some changes to the ordinance pertaining to industries wishing to haul their own waste. Pursuant to the direction of Council, Ordinance 1561 has now been amended to allow generators of industrial waste to transport their own waste for disposal. The ordinance would exempt such self -haulers from the payment of a permit fee, but would still require that all waste be channeled through a State -licensed Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). At the suggestion of industry representatives and City staff, the ordinance has also been modified ro require that industrial waste haulers furnish certificates of insurance, proof of vehicle inspections for all trucks utilize! to haul industrial waste, and a bonding requirement for defaults of franchise or permit fees.
