Short Description

Requirement implements Senate Bill 5788, passed by the 2005 legislature. Chapter 70.95 RCW, Solid Waste Management—Reduction & Recycling Act was amended, requiring transporters of recyclable material to register with Ecology, transport recyclable materials only to locations where recycling occurs, keep records of all activities for two years, and requires recycling facilities to notify Ecology of their existence 30 days before operation commences (90 days for existing facilities). In addition, Ecology can require financial assurance for recycling facilities if Ecology determines it is necessary.
