It shall be unlawful for any person to dump, throw, drop, discard, deposit or otherwise dispose of litter or other solid waste on any public or private property within Greenville County except in containers or in a lawful manner. This prohibition shall not be construed to limit the transportation of or the temporary placement of construction materials on a site under construction so long as they are properly placed so as to prevent uncontrolled dispersion onto lands of another, nor shall it be construed to require the containerization of rocks, tree stumps, large limbs or other large and heavy refuse so long as its weight and size will prevent it from being carried away or deposited by the elements upon the lands of another, and so long as any materials that may inadvertently be dispersed onto land of surrounding property owners is immediately retrieved by the person responsible therefor.
This article shall in no way prohibit the permissive depositing of suitable fill material on private property so long as said disposing is in accordance with state law, this and other appropriate county ordinances and so long as the depositor of the fill material has the express permission of the private property owner and said depositing is solely upon that property and is properly secured so as to prevent dispersion to property of another.
