(B) Plastic bags shall be used to store garbage or mixed rubbish and garbage only if used as a liner in watertight receptacles with tight-fitting covers as required in 105 CMR 430.350(A), or placed in enclosures that are rodent, insect and pest proof. Plastic bags may be put out for collection on the day of collection except in those places where such practice is prohibited by local rule or ordinance or except in those cases where the Board of Health determines such practice constitutes a health problem due to evidence of strewn garbage, torn garbage bags or evidence of rodents.
