DUMP
The following regulations shall be observed by any person, firm, or corporation to whom a permit is issued for the operation of a dump in the county. These regulations shall govern the operation of all approved dumps, and any failure to observe these regulations shall be sufficient grounds for the suspension or revocation of the permit by the licensing agency.
Regulation A. Dumps may accept for deposit only non-combustible waste containing no putrescible material.
Regulation B. The dump site shall be continually policed to prevent fire and shall be kept neat and sanitary at all times.
Regulation C. When the dump site has been brought up to two feet below the desired finished grade, it shall be covered with at least 24 inches of compacted cover material such as defined in Regulation D. of the Regulations for Sanitary Landfills, graded and seeded in such a manner as to prevent erosion.
Regulation D. All garbage and refuse material, other than that permitted by §§ 50.20 through 50.27 to be disposed of at a dump site, existing on the site at the time the permit is issued, shall be collected, compacted, and covered with cover material at least one foot in depth if below the desired finished grade or with inert material at least two feet in depth at the finished grade. This cover operation shall be completed within 15 working days after the issuance of a special permit for the dump.
Regulation E. Any material salvaged from the dump must be handled and stored in such a manner as to prevent rat harborage, and permit proper operation of the dump. All salvage material must be completely removed from the dump site every 24 hours unless provision is made for temporary storage in an entirely rat-proof structure approved by the Health Officer.
Regulation F. Burning of any materials deposited in a dump or landfill is expressly prohibited.
Regulation G. No fill shall be placed in stream beds or other areas where stream channels or floodplains would be obstructed.
Regulation H. The permit holder shall provide an access road, approved by the Health Officer, that is passable in all types of weather conditions.
Regulation I. The permit holder shall institute adequate dust control measures at all times deemed necessary by the Health Officer. Adequate dust control measures shall include the addition of a dust palliative.
