Projects that are still active after June 1, 2008 must comply with the newly adopted ordinance. This Ordinance requires contractors to divert debris materials from landfilling in the form of salvaging, re-using, and recycling . The Solid Waste Division will be available to guide you in this endeavour.
Ordinance # 07-25
Construction and Demolition Recycling
download a copy of the Ordinance
The Board of County Commissioners on September 11, 2007, adopted Ordinance No. 07-25 relating to Mandatory Recycling of Commercial and Multi-Family Residential Solid Waste, and Construction and Demolition Debris.
What You Need To Know:
 Who is responsible?
The Ordinance applies to covered projects which are defined as any project for which a building, demolition, or other similar permit is required by County Ordinance. Projects are required to divert 50% of the debris generated by the project. Projects requiring only mechanical electrical or plumbing are excluded. Other minimum criteria include:
Residential and Commercial –
Construction greater than $90,000 in value
Alterations greater than $10,000 in value
Roofing projects requiring old roofing removal
How to meet the requirements of the Ordinance?
1. Complete a Construction and Demolition Materials Management Plan
The County has prepared a sample plan for contractors to guide them through the compliance steps which include: estimating the amount of debris, estimating the amount that can be diverted, designating vendors for diversion/disposal of debris, and documentation of diversion/disposal.
2. Divert materials during the Project
Materials must be sent to a County approved recycling facility. Other diversion methods must be approved by the SWD. Waivers can be requested if the 50% diversion cannot be met. Keep all weigh tickets and receipts from recycling and disposal vendors
3. Submit paperwork to waive Diversion Fees
Required paperwork includes a completed C&DMMP, a County Approved Certification Statement signed and sealed by a company official, and appropriate back-up documentation.
*Please note, submission of falsified or inaccurate information with the certification statement is subject to perjury and will be subject to a fine in the amount of three times the Diversion Fee for the project plus any other legal proceedings up to and including criminal prosecution.
4. What if I can't divert enough debris?
Unless you were granted a waiver reducing the diversion percentage, a Diversion Fee will be assessed based on the type and size of the project.
