Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 6, March 18, 2024
(a) Each solid waste facility permittee shall maintain a daily record of wastes received. The record shall include:
(b) The daily record shall be maintained at the operating facility on forms provided by the Department or duplication of the same, or on systems acceptable to the Department, shall be kept for five years, and shall be available for inspection by representatives of the Department, county lead agency certified by the Department pursuant to N.J.S.A. 26:3A2-1 et seq. for any county from which solid waste is received, or the local health department at any time during normal working hours.
(c) The information required to be recorded in the daily record, as set forth in (a) above, shall be supplied by the transporter to the facility operator and by the facility weighmaster or operator on a waste origin/disposal (O and D) form (or the duplication of same). Where processing takes place at a transfer station or materials recovery facility prior to delivery to a designated district facility pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:26-6, the waste remaining after processing shall be designated within the O and D form and daily record as the same waste type as originally received at the transfer station or materials recovery facility. At no time may processing be used to change the original waste type designation of outgoing solid waste from a transfer station or materials recovery facility.
(d) The following solid waste collection and disposal operations are exempt from complying with the provisions of (c) above:
(e) Monthly summaries of wastes received shall be submitted by the owner/operator of each facility to the Division of Sustainable Waste Management, Bureau of Solid Waste Planning and Licensing, Mail Code 401-02C, PO Box 420, 401 East State Street, Trenton, New Jersey, 08625-0420, and the Solid Waste Coordinator for the district where the facility is located, on forms provided by the Department (or duplication of same), no later than 20 days after the last day of each month.
(f) Any certified county or local health agency certified by the Department pursuant to N.J.S.A. 26:3A2-1 et seq. or a local health department authorized to perform solid waste enforcement which seeks to obtain customer lists for enforcement purposes, shall comply with the procedures at 7:26H-5.9(c)5.
(g) Waste identification and definition of solids includes the following:
(h) Waste identification and definition of liquids include the following:
(i) For all waste disposed of within or leaving the district for further transfer, materials recovery or disposal (either in-State or out-of-State), each waste district shall record at a minimum the following information: district of waste origin; the identity of the transfer facility (if applicable); the identity of the final destination facility; the tonnage or cubic yards of waste; the waste type; and the tonnage or cubic yards of any material recycled. This information shall be compiled into monthly summaries which shall be retained for a period of one year or longer in the event of an unresolved enforcement action. If a district chooses to impose an in-district weighing requirement consistent with N.J.A.C. 7:26-6.10(b)2, to institute a mechanism to ensure the payment of outstanding debt and other financial obligations, the district may gather this information through in-district weighing, but only for the period set forth in 7:26-6.10(b)2. Districts which do not conduct in-district weighing shall develop an alternate recordkeeping method to ensure that accurate information is collected on a monthly basis as set forth above.
(j) The operator of a designated district weighing facility shall ensure that all weighing is conducted in a manner that facilitates proper operation and minimizes systems interruptions.
