Such structure shall be enclosed with at least three sides and a roof; be equipped with a dust control system of such a design as to minimize the amount of fugitive dust that can escape the waste processing area and be equipped with a system to control odors emanating from the waste handling process.
(B) Handling of construction, demolition waste or yard waste. Operations involving the loading, unloading, processing or storage of construction and demolition waste or yard waste shall take place on a hard surface pad and be located within the fenced, screened area of the facility.
(C) Waste accumulation. Transfer facilities shall not leave waste on the tipping floor overnight. No waste shall be accumulated at the facility beyond the daily operational design capacity specified in the Kentucky Division of Waste Management Registered Permit-by-Rule.

(E) Hazardous materials. Transfer facilities handling municipal solid waste shall not knowingly accept hazardous materials. Facilities shall have a procedure for visually checking loads for hazardous material. Municipal solid waste may contain incidental amounts of hazardous waste generated from household sources.
(F) Drainage provisions. All drainage from the waste storage, loading/unloading and yard areas shall be discharged to a municipal sewer or to an on-site wastewater treatment system (other than subsurface disposal) or collection system capable of preventing discharge of contaminants to any stream or waterway.
(G) Screening. Transfer facilities shall have a fenced and screened perimeter. The screening shall be sufficient to prevent any debris such as leaves, plastic, paper and miscellaneous materials from passing through the screening.
