§ 729-94. Disposal of Used Tires; Reporting.

(a)

Registration. No person, firm, or corporation shall accept for disposal more than five automobile, truck, motorcycle, or bicycle tires in any one calendar month unless and until the person, firm, or corporation has registered with the director of public services as a source of waste tires. The director of public services shall furnish a registration form for the purposes of the registration, and, upon the registrant's payment of a fee of $100.00, shall issue a certificate of registration, which may apply to all locations at which the registrant does business. Registrations shall be renewed annually. The form for registration shall contain the name and address of the registrant, and if a partnership, the names and addresses of all partners, and if a corporation, the name of the corporation and the names and addresses of the officers and the statutory agent, and shall contain additional information as deemed necessary by the director of public services.

(b)

Reporting. Except as provided in this section, all persons, firms, or corporations registered under division (a) of this section shall report tire disposal activity by submitting a monthly tire disposal report to the director of public services on a form promulgated by the director for that purpose. The monthly tire disposal report form shall contain the date and time that tires were hauled off the registrant's premises during the previous month. The form shall also require disclosure of the identity of each waste hauler transporting tires off the registrant's premises, and the license tag number of each truck used to transport tires off the registrant's premises. The monthly tire disposal report form shall cover a calendar month and be submitted to the director of public services no later than ten days after the last date of the calendar month in question.

(c)

If a person, firm or corporation disposes of its tires exclusively by contract with a tire disposal entity registered under division (a) above, and a copy of the contract is filed with the director of public services with the registration required under division (a) above, then the person, firm, or corporation is not required to report as required in division (b) above.

(d)

Except as provided in this section, no person, firm, or corporation who disposes of tires shall fail to register as a source of waste tires as provided in division (a) of this section, or fail to submit monthly tire disposal report forms to the director of public services as provided in division (b) of this section, or fail to provide complete information required by the forms.

(e)

No person, firm, or corporation shall engage another for the purpose of hauling waste tires unless the waste hauler is registered under this section.

(f)

Whoever violates any provision of this section is guilty of a misdemeanor of the first degree.
