Prior to acting upon an application for a solid waste management facility permit, the Director shall refer the application, along with all other pertinent information, to the County Department of Building and Development, the Health Director and other appropriate referral agencies for their reports and recommendations.
Upon a determination of the Director that the proposed solid waste management facility meets the requirements of applicable County ordinances and regulations, the Director will issue a permit for the construction of the facility. The Director may attach conditions to a permit when necessary to protect the public health or the environment. Permits shall be nontransferable without prior approval of the Director. The Director shall deny the permit if it is determined that the facility as designed cannot meet applicable County requirements. The Director shall notify the applicant, in writing, of the decision to deny the permit and shall specify therein the reasons for denial. Decisions of the Director under this section shall be based upon:
(a) The application and supporting documentation;
(b) Additional information furnished by the applicant at the request of the Director; and
(c) Information furnished by County staff, by consultants employed by the County or by any local, State or Federal agency at the request of the Director.
