CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

A. Middlesex County Background

Middlesex County is located in the geographic center of New Jersey, just 25 miles from New York City and 45 miles from Philadelphia. The 2000 census population figure was 750,162, the third largest County in the State. The labor force during 2000 reached 411,155 according to the New Jersey Department of Labor. Some projections indicate that growth in New Jersey will concentrate in the mid-state area and census estimates show Middlesex as the second largest County in population.

Industrial development in Middlesex County is flourishing; more than 40 well-designed industrial parks, situated on or near major roadways, serve as home to research centers and to large drug, pharmaceutical and chemical companies, manufacturers of electric appliances, cosmetics, perfumes and toys. Businesses ranging from Johnson and Johnson to small family-operated businesses continue to proliferate in Middlesex County.

There are several fine hospitals in Middlesex, including St. Peter’s University Medical Center, JFK Medical Center, Raritan Bay Medical Center, and Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital. In addition to an extensive system of public and parochial schools, there are five excellent County vocational-technical high schools, as well as Rutgers University, Middlesex County College and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. In addition to these services, recreational and cultural facilities abound in Middlesex County.

The Middlesex County Board of Chosen Freeholders and the Planning Department recognized at an early point in time that management of solid waste disposal in the County was an urgent priority. The first solid waste management plan was prepared in 1973. Programs of public education and explorations of the possibilities of using high technology incineration began in the 1970’s. Middlesex County established its Department of Solid Waste Management in April of 1975.

In 1992 the Department was combined with the environmental section of the Health Department to form the Department of Environmental Health. In 1994, Solid Waste Management again became its own Department. In 1995, the Department was placed in the Planning Department and now exists as the Division of Solid Waste Management. In 2012, the Division was moved to the Department of Public Safety and Health. The County Solid Waste Advisory Council is composed of interested and articulate citizens and officials guiding solid waste planning and advising the Freeholders on solid waste matters. The County SWAC has met continuously on a monthly basis since the late 1970’s.

Middlesex County’s current waste disposal facilities include the Middlesex County Landfill and a number of transfer stations. Prior to 1988, a significant portion of the waste from several counties was disposed in commercial landfills in Middlesex County, consuming disposal capacities that would have served Middlesex County’s needs for many years.

The tons of waste disposed of by Middlesex County for the last 28 years are as follows:

Middlesex County Yearly Disposal Totals

3.00 2.63 2.44 2.50 2.22 2.00 2.00

Solid Waste Planning in Middlesex County is conducted in cooperation with the MCEHD’s Solid Waste Enforcement Group, the MCUA and the MCIA. As a result of legislation, solid waste management includes cooperation with the MCEHD in planning and implementing County regulations of waste disposal operations under Chapter 443, the Environmental Health Act. As a result of a Freeholder decision in 1987, the operation of the Middlesex County Landfill has been assigned to the MCUA. Another Freeholder Board decision in 1994 assigned the implementation of the County-wide recycling program to the MCIA.

The challenges of solid waste management in Middlesex County are numerous. The County generates about 2300 tons of refuse for disposal per day. Recycling education must reach a diverse suburban, urban, and rural population as well as approximately 12,000 commercial operations. The strategies outlined in this edition of the Solid Waste Management Plan address these diverse problems.

B. The Plan Update and Provisions for Changes

The Update of the Solid Waste Management Plan is not a new Solid Waste Plan. It is a codification of previously approved provisions which have been adopted by the County and certified by the NJ DEP Commissioners since the 2001 Plan was approved. The Solid Waste Advisory Council was so advised. No resolution of approval was asked for and no Freeholder approval or NJ DEP Commissioner Certification is anticipated for this volume. This update does, however, include current information on population, amounts of waste disposed, ten year projections of waste disposal and County recycling program activities that do not require formal Plan inclusion for implementation.

Procedures for adopting Major Plan Amendments and Administrative Actions

The rules entitled “Modifications of district solid waste management plans; plan amendments” (N.J.A.C. 7:26 - 6.10) and “Administrative actions concerning a district solid waste management plan” (N.J.A.C. 7:26 - 6.11) will update and replace those previously included in the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan.

Major plan amendments are defined in N.J.A.C. 7:26-6.10 and include items such as inclusion of new solid waste facilities. Administrative actions are defined in N.J.A.C 7:26-6.11 and include minor actions such as adding additional materials to an approved recycling facility.

Outlined below are the approval procedures for Major Amendments and Administrative Actions to the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan.

Major Amendments are subject to the following procedures:

1. Review by DSWM staff to ensure SWAC criteria and staff concerns are met. 2. Presentation at two or more SWAC meetings. 3. SWAC Subcommittee site inspection, if applicable. 4. SWAC vote on the proposed amendment. 5. Public hearing as per N.J.A.C. 7:26 - 6.10 (c). 6. Board of Chosen Freeholders resolution adopting or rejecting the amendment. 7. Submission of the amendment and all required back-up to the NJ Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Solid and Hazardous Waste. 8. Certification of the amendment by the NJ Department of Environmental Protection.

Administrative Actions (formerly minor amendments) are subject to the following procedures:

1. Review by DSWM staff to ensure SWAC criteria and staff concerns are met. 2. Presentation at one or more SWAC meetings. 3. SWAC Subcommittee site inspection, if applicable. 4. SWAC vote on the proposed Administrative Action. 5. If approved by the County DSWM, a District Plan Amendment checklist with a copy of the Administrative Action and back-up is forwarded by the DSWM to the NJ Department of Environmental Protection. 6. Approval of the administrative action by the NJ Department of Environmental Protection.

Plan Amendments will be approved or rejected by the Board of Chosen Freeholders within 270 days after successful completion of step 1 above. In the event of unanticipated issues and with the mutual agreement of both the applicant and the County, the time frame shall be extended up to an additional 90 days.

Administrative Actions will be approved or rejected by the County within 180 days after successful completion of step 1 above. In the event of unanticipated issues and with the mutual agreement of both the applicant and the County, the time frame shall be extended up to an additional 60 days.

CHAPTER 2: REPORTS AND MAPS

The Solid Waste Management Act requires a report on current waste quantities being generated, the sources of that waste, and the composition of that waste.

A. Solid Waste Generation Quantities, Sources, and Composition

1. Current Waste Quantities and Sources (2010)

The most recent full year for which final data is available is 2010. During that year 472,151 tons of waste were disposed at the Middlesex County Landfill. According to other NJ Solid Waste Facility reports, 287,316 tons of County waste were disposed at out of County facilities. The overall total tons disposed was 759,467.

The amounts in tons disposed in 2010 were reported, by waste types, as follows:

Landfill Middlesex County Landfill Out of County Total Disposed Type 10 436,453 116,781 553,234 Type 13 22,881 154,815 177,696 Type 23 32 47 79 Type 25 585 7 592 Type 27 12,200 15,666 27,866 TOTAL 472,151 287,316 759,467

By municipality, the amount of each type of waste disposed in 2010 is shown in the following chart.

In addition to waste disposed, a complete report on the amount of waste generated must include recycling of materials such as newspaper, bottles, cans, plastic, corrugated cardboard, paper, tree stumps, scrap wood, concrete rubble, white goods and leaves. The total amount of material recycled in 2010 was 1,490,991 tons or 66.25% of total waste generated.

Appendix VII shows by municipality for 2010 the amount of each type of recyclable collected, the total amount of waste disposed and the calculation of the percentage of recycled material versus total waste.

B. Solid Waste Projections

Ten Year Projection of Waste Generation

The Solid Waste Management Act requires that the District Plan include a ten year projection of waste generation. Waste projections are intended as a loose guideline to plan for future disposal capacity. Waste generation can be significantly affected by business cycles, changing patterns of residential and business development, changes in packaging, illegal flows of waste due to differences in disposal costs in various counties and many other factors which can be difficult to predict accurately.

Below are some general comments on the difficulty in projecting waste generation for the next ten years.

 This is not a household waste statistic but results from dividing total waste disposed by total population. Therefore, using population projections to estimate future waste generation may not be very accurate.

 A county with major manufacturing and warehousing activity such as Middlesex will show higher waste generation per capita than a primarily residential county. It is difficult to project waste generation amounts for industries, because the varying amounts of waste generated by each type of industry and projecting the future growth for each type of industry must be taken into consideration.

 A county with substantially lower disposal charges - such as Middlesex - than surrounding counties will tend to show an apparent higher waste generation rate than counties with higher disposal rates. This is still true even though the Middlesex County Landfill does not accept out of County waste.

 It is difficult to project waste disposal amounts because of poor recordkeeping for waste that is disposed of outside Middlesex County.

Updated Ten Year Projection of Generated Waste Amounts

In 2003, the generation rate of all waste (Types 10, 13, 23, 25, 27, disposed and recycled) in Middlesex County was approximately 15 pounds/person/day. Using that figure and the population projections as provided by the Middlesex County Department of Planning, the projected waste generation is as follows:

Year Population Total Waste Generation 2013 804800 2,132,329 tons 2023 848400 2,216,923 tons

Note: Population projections from NJ Dept. of Labor and Workforce Development

Of the waste generated by Middlesex County each year, a significant percentage is recycled. Below is a table and chart which shows total tons recycled and disposed of per year, the population of

the County, and the split between pounds per person per day disposed and recycled from 1987 through 2010.

C. Facilities: Solid Waste and Recycling

This section of the Plan deals with existing and proposed solid waste and recycling facilities. On successive pages are lists and maps showing:

1. Recycling Facilities (including Compost Facilities) 2. Transfer Stations 3. Medical Waste Facilities 4. Landfill Facilities

The facilities on the charts are coded with a mapping index number in the first column. Inclusion in these lists or on maps does not represent State approval. Check the Status of Approval column for this information.

In addition to the types of facilities listed above and described in the following pages, the DSWM maintains a list of closed disposal facilities in Middlesex County as reported by the municipalities. It also maintains a list of commercial and industrial incinerators other than medical waste incinerators.

Guide to the Charts: The number in the lower right of the first column on the charts is the mapping index number which is used to identify the facility on the subsequent maps. On the charts with a “County Plan Included” column, the numbers indicate whether the facility was included or amended via  plan amendment (indicated by a full year - amendment number i.e. 1997-3)  administrative action (indicated by a three digit amendment number - last two digits for the year i.e. 007-98)  blanket inclusion (indicated by a BI-amendment number-last two digits for the year i.e. BI-1- 94)  or grandfathered (indicated by a “GF”).

Any entry marked “NA” means that the facility was not required to secure the type of approval referred to by the column title.

Guide to the various classes of recycling facilities: Class A - includes facilities accepting materials such as aluminum, glass, paper, cardboard, plastic, and bimetal cans. Class B - includes facilities accepting materials such as cinder, concrete, brick, block, asphalt, stumps, pallets, and tires. Class C - includes facilities accepting compostable materials such as leaves, grass, and brush. Class D - includes facilities accepting motor oil and universal waste materials.

D. Solid Waste - Waste Flow Control

As a result of the United States Supreme Court not hearing the State’s appeal of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals decision concerning New Jersey’s waste flow rules, (Atlantic Coast Demolition and Recycling Inc. et. al. vs. Board of Chosen Freeholders of Atlantic County et. al.) it was necessary to ensure that economic and environmentally sound solid waste and recycling programs continue in accordance with NJ DEP revised promulgated regulations. In response to this need, Middlesex County has adopted the following solid waste management and disposal procedures.

1. All solid waste generators within Middlesex County (public and private) must dispose of their waste at any properly licensed solid waste facility which complies with applicable law. The waste flow rules formerly contained in this section of the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan are no longer applicable. The County opts for a market participant system and solid waste facilities shall rely on voluntary contracts to secure a Middlesex County generated waste stream.

2. The MCUA will continue to operate the Middlesex County Landfill for Middlesex County generated waste only.

3. All solid waste generators in Middlesex County will be charged Solid Waste Management Service Fees, payable through haulers to the MCUA, for county-wide programs undertaken by (1) the MCEHD related to enforcement; (2) the County Division of Solid Waste related to planning, public outreach/education and community projects; (3) the MCIA related to recycling and associated activities; and (4) the MCUA related to solid waste tracking/reporting, program activities and recordkeeping. The applicable fees will become effective on solid waste collected and hauled within Middlesex County after January 1, 1998 and will be payable to the MCUA after the date of the NJ DEP Certification of this Amendment (which was January 21, 1998), for all waste generated in Middlesex County. Fees will be assessed on a per ton basis. Waste collected commingled with recyclables will be assessed on a per ton basis for the total weight of the material, before the recyclables are separated out. The solid waste management fees for the year 1998 are set forth below.

4. All solid waste haulers collecting and transporting Middlesex County waste will be required to continue reporting the origin and tonnage of waste being disposed by each municipality. Disposal of waste at the Middlesex County Landfill will be reported at that facility through the origin and destination forms. Disposal at any other solid waste facility will be reported monthly by each hauler. The monthly report must consist of hauler and/or facility summaries based upon certified weights and is to be submitted to the MCUA by the 15th of the month following the reporting month. Solid waste haulers who are in compliance with the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan shall self weigh at a scale which is certified and registered with Weights and Measures and self report in lieu of in-district weighing for tonnage verification and for the payment of the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Service Fee.

Any hauler failing to comply with those provisions of the Plan pertaining to recordkeeping, reporting and payment obligations covering all solid waste generated in Middlesex County but not disposed at the Middlesex County Landfill, may be required to weigh at the Middlesex County Landfill prior to out of district disposal. The MCEHD shall be responsible for enforcement of this

provision. All applicable fees associated with the use of the Landfill scales are the responsibility of the hauler.

The penalties for failure to weigh at the Middlesex County Landfill after being required shall be those contained in Appendix VI - MCEHD Enforcement Protocol and Penalties: “Non-submittal and/or falsification of Monthly Tonnage Report; and/or non payment of Solid Waste Management fees”.

5. Any solid waste hauler failing to comply with the recordkeeping, reporting and payment obligations contained in this Plan Amendment will be subject to enforcement sanctions. (Refer to Appendix VI)

6. (a) All solid waste generators must engage the services of a solid waste hauler which is duly licensed by the State of New Jersey for collecting and transporting solid waste to a disposal facility of choice which complies with applicable law. (b) All contracts between solid waste generators and solid waste haulers must specify that the hauler is required to comply with the County Plan.

7. In the event a municipality that collects and transports solid waste or a municipally-contracted hauler who collects and transports solid waste fails to comply with the provisions of this Amendment, certain solid waste services described herein provided by the County and County designated agencies to the municipality may be terminated.

8. Haulers collecting commingled recyclables and solid waste from Middlesex County generators pursuant to site specific municipal approvals where the solid waste residual of the mixture does not exceed fifteen percent (15%) by weight of the hauler container load shall be exempt from paying the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Services Fee on the portion of the separated recyclables successfully marketed. For purposes of determining the amount to be exempted, the percentage separation of recyclables and solid waste determined by certified scales from a non merchant intermediate processing facility(ies) properly licensed by jurisdiction of location may be utilized by the hauler to determine the amount of mixture exemption from payment of the fee provided that such documentation is provided at the time of filing of the required Middlesex County report forms and fee payment.

9. If a receiving facility, i.e. a transfer station/MRF, brings waste for final disposal at the County Landfill and when the SWMS fee was already paid by the hauler using that receiving facility, the transfer station/MRF may be eligible to receive a rebate of the amount of the SWMS fee per ton of waste brought back for disposal. This could occur if a hauler takes a load of waste to a transfer station (which requires the payment of the SWMS fee), and then that transfer station brings the waste to the landfill and pays the fee again (the fee is included within the tip fee at the landfill). The transfer station may apply for a rebate of the SWMS fee that it has paid within the tip fee. The rebate will be on a per ton basis for the amount of tons delivered to the County Landfill for disposal. The MCUA will administer the rebate program. As a condition of the prospective rebate, the transfer station must provide to the MCUA a copy of the NJ DEP monthly report containing the names of haulers who delivered waste and the amount of that waste to their transfer facility. The rebate will only be issued if the transfer station/MRF is in full compliance with the NJ DEP regulations and the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan, and if it is verified that those haulers did in fact pay the required SWMS fee.

10. The Solid Waste Management Service Fee for 2012 is as follows:

1. County Enforcement Program $0.77/ton 2. County Solid Waste Mgmt. $1.15/ton 3. MCIA Programs $6.00/ton 4. MCUA Programs $2.00/ton

Total $9.92/ton

These rates may be adjusted through the MCUA budget process.

Solid Waste Management Service Fees Explanation Plan Amendment 1997-3 contains provision for assessing Solid Waste Management Service Fees to haulers who do not utilize the County Landfill facility. Those haulers who continue to utilize the County Landfill will be charged these fees within the tip fee structure. These fees provide for (1) the MCEHD related to enforcement; (2) the DSWM related to planning, public outreach/education and community projects; (3) the MCIA related to recycling and associated activities; and (4) the MCUA related to solid waste tracking/reporting, program activities and recordkeeping. Without the collection of these fees from haulers not utilizing the County Landfill, it would be impossible for Middlesex County to meet the requirements of the NJ DEP recently revised solid waste regulations (N.J.A.C. 7:26-1 et. seq.) and offer the same consistency, uniformity and delivery of the environmentally sound programs that currently exist.

11. MCEHD Enforcement Protocol

Any violation of those rules/regulations governing solid waste in the County of Middlesex, State of New Jersey falling under the authority of the MCEHD are subject to prosecution in the Superior Court of Middlesex County.

The violator, if found guilty, shall be liable to pay the Court Judgment to the MCEHD.

In addition, any person(s) found guilty of a solid waste violation shall be liable for all costs incurred by the County of Middlesex including all litigation costs, fees, and expenses. All fees and penalties collected that are related to prosecution shall be deposited in the Environmental Quality and Enforcement Fund (EQEF) as established, pursuant to regulation, by the County of Middlesex. Said monies shall be dedicated to the use of the County Department or certified local health agency in carrying out its responsibilities of the County Environmental Health Act.

Penalties for violations of the above requirements are contained in Appendix VI.

E. Solid Waste Haulers

Solid waste haulers known to be servicing customers in Middlesex County as of 2011 are listed in Appendix IV.

CHAPTER 3: COUNTY PLANNING - STRATEGIES

A. Designated Agencies - Planning and Implementation

The Solid Waste Management Act requires the designation of a single agency as the solid waste planning agency for each county. The Freeholders of Middlesex County have designated the DSWM as their planning agency. (1)

The Board of Chosen Freeholders has designated the MCUA as the implementing agency responsible for operating the Middlesex County Landfill. (2)

The Board of Chosen Freeholders has designated the MCIA as the County agency responsible for implementation of recycling in the County. (3)

(1) Middlesex County Solid Waste Plan, 1979 (2) Plan Amendment 1987-4, Certification dated November 20, 1987 (3) Plan Amendment 1994-2, Certification dated October 3, 1994

B. Strategies

The following are the elements of the County’s waste management strategies in order of priority:

1. Source Reduction

The Governor’s Task Force Report and the “Solid Waste Policy Guidelines” issued by the NJDEP in 1991 call for certain source reduction measures that will “...cap 1990 per capita generation of waste, cap total waste generation within five years and then reduce total waste generation within ten years.”

The following Source Reduction measures are being implemented on the County level:

a) A "Cut it and Leave it" campaign was instituted to convince Middlesex County residents to adopt new lawn maintenance habits and leave cut grass on their lawns. The DSWM has and will continue to work with the County Rutgers Cooperative Extension Service to hold backyard composting seminars and educate residents at County and municipal events.

b) An education program is in place to promote buying materials with less packaging or materials that are less toxic, reusing shopping bags and mugs and decreasing the amount of junk mail that people receive. The county will continue to provide programs aimed at educating residents to take responsibility for reducing the amount of waste that they generate.

c) The DSWM plans to prepare an inventory of small quantity generators. This will be done in order to attempt to prevent hazardous waste from being disposed improperly and to keep hazardous waste out of the Middlesex County Landfill and other solid waste facilities.

d) The DSWM has expanded its previous twice per year collection of household hazardous waste (HHW) to three collections in 1992, four in 1993, six in 1994 and 1995, seven in 1996, eight in 1997 and 1998, seven in 1999 through 2010, and five in 2011. These are one day events held at municipal public works and County facilities. The County hires a licensed

hazardous waste contractor, who packs and properly disposes of the material. In 1998, fluorescent light bulbs were added to the list of acceptable materials at the HHW events. A 1992 Plan Amendment also called for the examination of the potential siting of a permanent Household Hazardous Waste Facility (1992-2). This option was evaluated by the DSWM and SWAC. A Minor Modification was passed (005-96) in 1996 that recommended a drop- off HHW program as follows: 1. Initiate a paint recycling program, which will help to manage over 50% of the HHW stream. The proposed program includes:  Establishing 6 or more drop-off locations (either municipal or County) where any County resident will be able to drop off latex and oil-based paint (and possibly stains, thinners, and varnishes, etc.) during specified hours.  A contractor will be retained to service the drop-offs (pick up products in original containers) and transport, recycle and/ or dispose of the material.  The drop-offs will most likely be provided with a standardized container/ storage facility to place the paints in.

2. Continue to conduct single day events held at the same locations each time. If funding permits, increase the number of events.  Establish 2 or more locations to hold one day events similar to the current practice. The paint program will help to reduce the volume of waste received and should also reduce the cost thus providing a possible source of funding to increase the number of events.  Keep the locations the same and have the events at the same time each month (i.e. third Saturday/Sunday) to help provide consistency and increase awareness of the program. Other NJ Counties who have held the events in the same place each year have had far better participation than Middlesex County.

3. Continue and expand the development of an educational program to aid in better public education as to the proper disposal and reduction techniques for HHW.  Publicize the days and hours of both the single day collection events and permanent paint drop-offs.  Educate residents in ways to reduce the amount of HHW that they must dispose (i.e. buying only what they need, using less toxic alternatives).  Inform residents about the proper ways to recycle motor oil and the location of the drop- offs for motor oil around the County.

The paint program was implemented in May 1997. Eight (8) drop-off sites for paint were situated around the County. At least one drop-off is open every Saturday (except in months where there is a fifth Saturday). The drop-offs accept latex paint, oil-based paint, stains, varnishes, aerosol paints, lacquers, and thinners. The County’s highly successful Paint Drop-off Program was expanded to a total of nine sites with the addition of a drop-off in Old Bridge in April, 2001. Since its inception through 2010, the program has been utilized by 57,234 residents who delivered 855,713 containers of paint weighing 6,477,449 pounds/3,238.72 tons.

e) Household Battery Recycling Program: This program included over 50 drop-off locations, with at least one drop-off in each municipality as well as several consolidation locations. Since its inception in 1995 through 2010, the program has received over 444,000 pounds/222 tons of batteries.

In 2010, due to regulatory changes and less hazardous battery compositions, Middlesex County residents were informed that they should dispose of their alkaline batteries in the regular trash. In June 2011, the County Household Battery Collection Program changed. Containers for button cell batteries only are provided by the County, and the button cells are properly disposed of through HHW events. Municipalities have been encouraged to continue their local drop-offs, by participating in the RBRC’s free program for recycling of rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable and button cell batteries are still accepted at HHW events. f) Waste audits were performed on county offices in 1994 by an outside consulting firm. The County will require commercial establishments to complete waste audits once guidance documents are prepared by the DSWM. Although Plan Amendment 1992-2 set forth a schedule by which commercial establishments must complete a waste audit, since the guidance documents were never prepared, the DSWM has not and will not enforce those deadlines. g) The DSWM will continue to assist municipalities and provide information on various waste collection strategies, including a per-container system so that they may choose the best strategy for their municipality. h) All County departments and offices, municipalities, school districts, independent public authorities, and public institutions operating in Middlesex County have been encouraged to adopt source reduction practices, including purchasing two-sided copiers, buying in bulk, purchasing items with minimal packaging, purchasing products based on their recyclability, reuse, or repairability, and purchasing materials made from recycled products. i) Consumer Electronics Recycling Program: The County’s Consumer Electronics Program began in 2001. Middlesex County’s contract specifies the vendor must provide and staff a primary drop-off location in Middlesex County for residents to conveniently deliver consumer electronics. Acceptable items include televisions, computers and peripherals, fluorescent bulbs, and mercury containing devices. In 2005, two municipal drop-offs opened in Sayreville and Monroe for their respective residents and by the end of 2007 there were 12 municipal drop-offs in operation. Since its inception in 2001 through 2010, the program has generated 5,864,251 pounds/2,932.12 tons of electronics.

In 2011, the Electronic Waste Management Act took effect which requires the recycling of all computers and televisions. The County Program currently consists of a primary drop-off which is open twice per month as well as 23 municipal programs composed of drop-offs and/or curbside pick up. j) Mercury Thermometer Exchange Program: The Mercury Thermometer Exchange Program began in 2004 with a one day collection event held in conjunction with our Consumer Electronics Drop-off event. Since that time through 2010, there have been 60 collection events that have resulted in more than 4,714 thermometers received from over 3,306 residents. The purpose of this program is to educate the public on the dangers of exposure to mercury and to encourage residents to properly recycle their mercury thermometer(s). A mercury-free digital thermometer is provided free of charge to each resident who brings in a mercury containing thermometer(s). The Division plans to continue these events in the future.

k) CFC Recycling Program: The Division became aware several years ago that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) from certain appliances collected by the municipalities were not being collected properly. To encourage the proper and legal removal of CFCs, the Division, in 2002, implemented a program whereby participating municipalities are reimbursed a portion of the costs incurred to properly recover/recycle the CFCs. The Division evaluates and approves the vendor(s) that can be used by municipalities. In 2007, 4,129 pounds/2.06 tons of CFCs were properly recovered/recycled through the efforts of the participating municipalities. Since its inception in 2002 through 2010, the results of the program have been the collection of 18,107 refrigerators and 14,481 air conditioners weighing 4,230,180 pounds/2115.09 tons and capture of 38,017 pounds/18.82 tons of CFCs.

l) Propane Tanks: In 2002, manufacturers were required by law to install new valves - overfill prevention devices (OPDs) on propane tanks to prevent the overfilling of tanks. Old tanks without this new valve were prohibited from being refilled in New Jersey. Due to these new regulations, many residents had non-compliant tanks requiring recycling. To address this large influx of tanks, the Division organized propane tank consolidation events. Tanks were consolidated at two municipal recycling yards and were picked up at no cost by an out of state market. Additionally, tanks were handled through our HHW events. Since 2002 through 2010, 27,477 tanks were recycled. The Division plans to continue this project as needed.

2. Recycling Plan and Municipal Programs

See Chapter 3, Section C

3. Waste Diversion of Bulky Waste

Recycling of waste wood, concrete, large tree parts, and other construction materials has been encouraged by the cost of disposal. Private industry generates most of these materials and private industry has responded to the need to divert a good portion of these materials from the waste stream to approved recycling facilities. The Facilities section of this Plan lists several Class B recycling facilities operating in Middlesex County. The County will support inclusion of these facilities in the County Plan as long as impacts on citizens, neighboring businesses, and the environment are minimal.

4. Composting

See Chapter 3, Section C9

5. Transfer Stations

Transfer Stations associated with out-of-state disposal strategies are not part of the County’s strategy at this time. Municipalities and private waste haulers may choose to obtain approval for transfer stations that reduce waste management costs or improve collection service. A list of transfer stations operating in Middlesex County is in Chapter 2, Section C.

6. Landfill

In August 1987, the Middlesex County Board of Chosen Freeholders approved a plan amendment designating the Middlesex County Landfill (originally designated as Edgeboro Landfill 34

Phase II Expansion) as the County’s long term disposal site. The MCUA obtained a permit for that landfill in May 1991. The Phase I portion of the landfill was closed in 1992 and the Phase II section opened in January 1992. The estimated life expectancy Phase II of the landfill as of January 1999 is approximately 20 years (assuming out of County disposal tonnages remain stable).

The Middlesex County Landfill, operated by the MCUA, is located on Edgeboro Road in the Township of East Brunswick near the confluence of the Raritan and South Rivers. The Middlesex County Landfill relies on double composite high density polyethylene (HDPE) liners with a full site leachate collection system and a separate leak detection system constructed on a three foot thick clay layer designed to impede any discharge of landfill generated liquid into ground or surface waters. By virtue of its piggybacked construction on top of the former, now closed, Edgeboro Landfill, the Middlesex County Landfill incorporated the former facility's bentonite slurry cut off wall as a redundant groundwater migration barrier.

Constructed to meet Federal EPA Subtitle D and New Jersey DEP landfill performance standards, the Middlesex County Landfill has installed a landfill gas collection system which collects potential odoriferous and greenhouse gases regulated under the Federal and State Clean Air Act. The methane gas is then transported via pipelines to the Electric Power Generating Facility in Sayreville, operated by the National Energy Resource Corporation (NERC). There, the gas is converted into 16- megawatts of electrical energy which is used to power the MCUA's operations in Sayreville. Collected Landfill leachate is transmitted to the MCUA Wastewater Treatment Facility.

7. Contingency Plan

In the event of a complete loss of landfill capacity, Middlesex County would either use known brokers and transportation companies to obtain long-haul transportation to out-of-state facilities or negotiate with other NJ counties that have existing in-state capacity.

Note: On October 26, 1992 the NJDEP certified a plan amendment which removed the proposed incinerator (to be located in Sayreville) and removed incineration as a disposal option from this Plan. Prior to that time, incineration had been a disposal strategy for Middlesex County although no incinerator had been constructed.

8. Measures to reduce the Health risks associated with the West Nile Virus regarding the storage and proper disposal/recycling of scrap tires.

Middlesex County has been working diligently to reduce the health threat posed by the West Nile virus. Improperly stored or illegally disposed tires can collect water and have the potential to become breeding grounds for mosquitoes. To reduce this potential, Middlesex County tire generators (residential, institutional, government, and commercial) and establishments that receive tires at the end of their useful lives, including tires on or off rims, (hereinafter scrap tires) must adhere to the following rules: a) All scrap tires must be properly recycled. Middlesex County residents may drop off up to four residentially generated scrap tires at one of the County’s four Tire Drop-Off centers. Commercial, government or institutional generators may contact the DSWM for a list of licensed recycling facilities or may contract with a licensed hauler for removal. b) If there are more than 5 scrap tires on site, the scrap tires must be stored in totally enclosed structures, closed trailers, or covered roll-off containers. c) Scrap tires must be removed from the site within six months.

d) The provisions of this section are enforceable by the MCEHD or its designee. Violators shall be subject to notices of violations and penalty assessments as set forth in Appendix VI – Scrap Tire Enforcement Protocol and Penalties, as well as any administrative, legal, and court costs of the County of Middlesex and its autonomous bodies.

9. Clean Communities Program

Middlesex County’s Clean Communities Program is a litter abatement program incorporating both cleanup and educational elements designed to provide for the collection, disposal and dissemination of information relevant to the litter portion of the County’s solid waste stream. It has been a very effective and popular program since its inception in 1986. Funding from the Program has helped Middlesex County and its municipalities to provide various programs dedicated to removing and disposing of tons of litter and debris from numerous roadways and public locations throughout Middlesex County. Specifically, Middlesex County’s Clean Communities Funds are used to support such initiatives as its volunteer Adopt-A-Road Program, Adult Corrections Road Cleanup Detail Program and annual educational newspaper insert. Middlesex County will use available fees, taxes, charges and/or entitlements associated with/generated from solid waste and/or recycling programs to fund the County’s Clean Communities Program(s) as may be required.

C. Recycling Plan

The Middlesex County Recycling Plan as revised in the Spring of 1994, was approved by the Board of Chosen Freeholders in June, 1994. It was certified by the NJ DEP on October 3, 1994.

1. Outline of Recycling Plan Requirements

The Statewide Mandatory Source Separation and Recycling Act, which became law on April 20, 1987, requires that each County Solid Waste Management Plan include a formally adopted Recycling Plan. This plan must: a) Designate a County Recycling Coordinator position; b) Designate recyclable materials to be source-separated in each municipality, which shall include, in addition to leaves, at least three other materials; c) Designate a strategy for the collection, marketing and disposition of recyclable materials in each municipality and designate recovery targets in each municipality to achieve the maximum feasible recovery of recyclable materials from the solid waste stream; d) Accord priority consideration to persons engaged in the business of recycling or otherwise lawfully providing recycling services prior to the adoption of the plan provided that person has not discontinued these services for a period of 90 days or more between January 1, 1986 and the date on which the plan is adopted; e) Provide a procedure for future modifications to the Plan; f) Provide for enforcement; g) Provide for exemptions from municipal requirements for certain entities or businesses; h) Designate leaf composting sites; and i) Describe the County’s publicity and education program and indicate minimum requirements for each municipal education program.

2. County Recycling Coordinator Position

The County established the full-time position of Recycling Coordinator in the DSWM several years ago and intends to maintain this position.

3. Recyclable Materials

4. Recycling Goals

In order to assure that Middlesex County complies with the requirements of the Recycling Act, the County and each municipality in the County should have achieved the following rates of recycling:

At least 60% of the current year’s total solid waste stream by December 31, 1995. At least 50% of the current year’s municipal waste stream (Types 10 & 23) by December 31, 1995.

 Countable Materials Toward the 50% Goal Newspaper Leaves Glass Brush Aluminum food and beverage containers Textiles 38

Steel Cans Grass Plastic Containers Antifreeze Mixed Paper Used motor oil Corrugated Cardboard Brush/Tree Parts Batteries (Dry Cell) Food Waste Other Glass Other Plastic

 Calculation of Recycling Rates The recycling rate is to be calculated as follows:

60% Add solid waste (all types) disposed and total materials recycled to obtain total solid waste generated. Divide tons recycled into total solid waste generated to determine recycling rate.

50% Add solid waste (types 10 & 23) disposed and total materials recycled to obtain solid waste generated. Divide countable tons recycled into solid waste generated to determine recycling rate.

Recycling rates (50% and 60% goals) calculated for each municipality and the County for 2009 are shown in Appendix VII. Subsequent years’ data will be inserted as it becomes available.

Strategy to achieve the 50% Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) recycling goal Middlesex County believes that we will be able to meet the 50% MSW recycling goal by increasing the amount of recycling of currently designated materials. The chart below shows the generation rate of certain designated materials, the current recycling rate for those materials, and the target recycling rate necessary to meet and exceed the 60% total waste and 50% MSW recycling goals. By meeting the target rate for those previously designated materials, Middlesex County can be expected to recycle an additional 321,000 tons of material, far exceeding the 138,806 tons required by NJDEP to meet the 50% MSW goal.

2003 Recycling Statistics: MSW Disposal MSW Recycling MSW Recycling Rate MSW Recycling MSW Recycling Tonnage Tonnage @ 50% Rate Tonnage Increase Needed to Reach 50% Goal 593,459 tons 315,847 tons 34.7% 454,653 tons 138,806 tons

Notes: Tons recycled is from the 2003 DEP certified tonnage grants. The tons generated were calculated by multiplying the percent (%) of waste stream by the total waste generated in 2003. Percent (%) of waste stream is from the 1991 Killam Composition Study. Target rates are from Governor Florio’s 1992 Task Force Report. Current capture was calculated by dividing the tons recycled by the tons generated. Additional tons to be recycled were calculated by multiplying the target rate by the tons generated and subtracting from that the tons currently recycled.

5. Responsibilities of Municipalities a) Mandating Recycling of Materials Prescribed in County Plan Each municipality in Middlesex County must adopt an ordinance mandating the source separation and recycling of at least the materials identified in the County’s adopted and approved Plan. Municipalities may mandate other materials not designated in the County Plan. b) Source Separation of Leaves Municipal ordinances must also include source separation of leaves for composting. c) Amending Ordinance to Mandate Additional Prescribed Materials Municipal ordinances must be amended if additional materials in the residential, commercial, and institutional sectors are mandated for source separation through revisions of this Plan. d) Providing a Recycling Channel for Each Mandated Material Municipalities shall provide a system that will enable all generators to recycle each of the mandated materials unless otherwise provided for by the generator. This system may utilize either curbside collection or a drop-off center and either public or private operation. e) Enforcement and Penalty Provisions Municipal ordinances shall specify enforcement provisions and suitable/allowable penalties for non-compliance. Municipal ordinances shall indicate which official(s) have authority for enforcement, including issuance of warnings and violation notices. Municipal ordinances may designate the MCEHD as the enforcing agent for commercial/industrial generators. Municipal ordinances must establish a minimum fine which will be imposed for failure of solid waste generators to comply with requirements of the recycling ordinance. f) Municipalities to Market Recyclable Materials Each municipality shall develop a method of marketing the collected materials unless otherwise provided. g) Municipal Responsibility for Meeting 50% and 60% Goals Each municipality is responsible for all actions which are necessary to ensure that the 50% and 60% Countywide recycling goals are met. This includes programs of education, inspection and enforcement. It is recommended that municipal inspection programs be conducted to determine that generators of recyclables are in compliance. h) Municipal Recycling Education Requirements Each municipal education program must include notification every six months to all persons occupying residential, commercial and institutional premises concerning the municipality’s recycling program, the materials being recovered, procedures required for separation and collection and hours of

drop-off center operation. Municipalities are urged to make at least one of the two annual notifications in the form of a mailing to all residents, businesses and institutions. Municipalities are encouraged to provide other notification to their citizens including use of radio, cable TV, newsletters, calendars of events, etc. Municipalities should determine that multi-family housing units or buildings have notified their residents upon arrival and at least every three months thereafter. Copies or records of public notifications must be provided to the DSWM. i) Reporting In order for the County to monitor the progress of the recycling program, municipalities must provide a copy of the Tonnage Grant report to the DSWM each year. Each municipality must report to the County within 30 days any changes in provision of recycling services to generators, change in municipal recycling coordinator, change in marketing agreements for designated recyclable materials, change in provider(s) of curbside collection service or change in operation of recycling depots (e.g. hours, etc). j) Requiring Registration of Haulers, Scavengers or Volunteer Groups Municipal ordinances may provide that collectors of recyclables (private haulers, private scavengers or volunteer groups) must register and provide data on the results of their collection. k) Single/Dual Stream Recycling Municipalities may opt to collect their recyclables in a single stream or dual stream (fiber, commingled) provided the IPF (intermediate processing facility) that receives the material has certified that they have the ability to separate out and maximize the capture rate of the mandated recyclables. The Division will compile and maintain an updated list of those facilities. l) Compliance with Municipal Land Use Law Municipalities must update their ordinances to include requirements/design standards to ensure that a proper recycling system for all mandated recyclables will be provided for in developments consisting of 50 or more single family units, 25 multifamily residential housing units and any commercial or industrial development proposal of 1,000 square feet or more of land. A recycling system must also be in place throughout the construction phase. m) Construction and Demolition Waste Municipalities must update their ordinances to include the following section: At the time of issuance of any building permit, the building code official must provide written instruction on proper disposal and recycling of construction and demolition waste and furnish a Notification of Construction/Demolition Activity Form that must be filled out by the permittee and faxed to the DSWM within 48 hours of the issuance of a municipal permit. The DSWM shall provide the specified written instruction and form to the municipalities.

Note: The collection systems and marketing systems currently in place are described in Appendix V. Agreements and contracts currently in use between municipalities and providers of collection, processing, and/or marketing services are also described in Appendix V. This information will be updated semi-annually.

6. Responsibilities of the County a) Field Inspection/Enforcement Program The Middlesex County Field Recycling Inspection Team will conduct a year-round inspection program to assure that multi-family, commercial and institutional generators of solid waste and 41

recyclables understand and comply with their responsibilities under the County Plan and State law. This generator inspection program will operate in all municipalities. Follow-up inspections will be made of generators found to be in violation of the compliance provisions of this Plan. Notices of Violation and Penalty Assessments will be issued as deemed appropriate. The inspectors will be members of the MCEHD and derive authority from the Solid Waste Management Act (N.J.S.A. 13:1E-1 et. seq.) via the County Environmental Health Act. (N.J.S.A. 26:3A2-21 et. seq.) The penalty schedule for recycling violations will be between $100 and $5,000. b) Solid Waste Facility Inspection Program Inspectors from the MCEHD and the MCUA will conduct inspections for recyclables on a year- round basis at the Middlesex County Landfill (MCLF). The purpose of this inspection program is to assure that no recyclables are disposed at the County’s disposal site. The inspectors will perform a thorough inspection of any load that is observed to contain readily visible amounts of designated recyclable materials. Spreading and covering of the load will be delayed while the inspection is conducted. If the inspection discloses a violation a Notice of Violation will be issued according to the provisions of this Plan. . Solid waste and recyclables haulers, municipal or private, are responsible for what they collect. They will be subject to inspections at transfer stations, landfills, and recycling facilities. If violations are disclosed enforcement action will be taken and penalties will be issued as provided in Appendix VI.

Since haulers are responsible for what they transport to the solid waste facilities, Notices of Violation will be issued to the hauler. Penalties are assessed progressively based on the haulers’ record of past violations and demonstrated results in working with generators to eliminate recyclables from the waste stream. The Department will attempt to identify the generator of the recyclables. Where generators can be identified the Recycling Generator Inspection Program will follow up with an inspection at the generator. Follow up inspections will be conducted and penalties will be issued if necessary to assure compliance.

c) Facility Inspections The MCEHD will continue to inspect recycling facilities, compost facilities, transfer stations and any other solid waste facilities located in Middlesex County. These facilities are inspected to ensure their compliance with both the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan and New Jersey statutes and regulations. d) Data on Waste Disposed The County will obtain monthly reports from the Middlesex County Landfill and from DEP for waste disposed out of County, showing amounts disposed by each municipality by waste type so that recycling rates can be calculated against accurate data. e) Notifications The County will notify all County institutions and offices at least twice a year of the applicable recycling requirements. DSWM will maintain a record of these notifications. f) Assistance to a Municipality Failing to Reach the Required Recycling Rate - Assurance of Markets The County will continually take steps to assure that all generators of designated recyclable materials are provided with recycling services (municipally provided or contracted curbside collection and/or recycling center). Presently, every municipality has a market for its collected recyclables. 42

Note: As of March 1990, in response to the County’s survey, municipalities reported that all generators of designated recyclable materials were provided with recycling services or, as in the case with most businesses, had elected to provide their own system.

If, at a future date, a deficiency of service shall be identified and shall continue for more than six months, the County will solicit proposals from, review qualifications of, and enter into contracts or agreements on behalf of municipalities with persons providing recycling services or operating recycling centers for the collection, storage, processing and disposition of designated recyclable materials. g) Assistance to Municipalities Failing to Reach the Required Recycling Rate - Administrative Assistance  DSWM and County Administrator will consult with the Mayor, Recycling Coordinator and Public Works Official on improvements to the local recycling program.  A DSWM staff member will be assigned to work with local officials until the deficiency is eliminated.  Freeholders will consult with local elected officials.  The focus of the County’s Public Information Program will be adjusted to assist the municipality. h) Market Information The County will continue to make available current information on markets, prices and providers of services as requested. The County will also be prepared to provide information on equipment and collection systems. i) Educational Materials The County will make available educational, informational and motivational materials from various sources - commercial and governmental - including posters, books, and videotapes. The County Solid Waste Management staff will also be available as a “speakers bureau” for schools, service clubs, Chambers of Commerce, etc. j) Office Paper Collection - County Offices An office paper recycling collection (including an information/education program) will be maintained for County offices. Assistance to County Departments and institutions in implementing required recycling programs will be provided when requested. k) Leaf Compost Sites and Permits Assistance to municipalities in finding sites for leaf composting, in expediting permits and in obtaining expert guidance for operations will be provided. l) Bicycle Collection Program The County had our first bicycle collection in conjunction with Pedals for Progress on June 18, 2005. 83 bikes were collected. A second collection was held on June 3, 2006 and 55 bikes were collected. The Division plans to support these events in the future. m) Paper Shred Program A pilot Paper Shred Program was started in 2005. A mobile paper shredding truck is contracted to visit various locations and shreds paper onsite. This program allows residents to recycle their old documents and confidential files safely and securely. Through the end of 2010, 121 events have

been held. Collectively, over 14,412 residents delivered 907,291 pounds/452 tons of paper for recycling to these events. n) Improved Recycling Tonnage Information The Division hired a consultant to prepare a Tonnage Tracker Access Database. Municipalities utilize the database to complete their annual tonnage reports. The database provides an easy, accurate way for the recycling information to be recorded. In addition, the Division has taken an active role in gathering tonnage information by contacting markets, recycling facilities, and haulers in and outside Middlesex County.

7. Priority Consideration The Recycling Act calls for priority consideration for certain persons (or businesses) that were engaged in recycling activities before the Recycling Act was adopted. Persons previously engaged in recycling as defined in this provision of the Recycling Act shall receive priority in case of equal bids or equal qualifications in competitive selection situations.

8. MCIA Curbside Collection Program The MCIA has contracted with a private contractor for a minimum of biweekly residential curbside recycling collection service for municipalities that choose to participate in their program. Those municipalities desiring once per week pick up shall be offered that option with the additional costs being funded by the Municipality. One private contractor is currently responsible for the collection of recyclables in the 14 municipalities who opted to become full participants in the MCIA's curbside collection program. The remaining 11 towns have chosen to continue to provide recycling services on their own. Future contracts may divide the County up into service areas, with different contractors responsible for different service areas.

The materials collected initially include, at a minimum, the following materials:  Glass food and beverage containers  Aluminum cans  Steel food and beverage containers  Plastic containers (soda, milk, water, and detergent)  Old newspaper (ONP)  Corrugated cardboard  Mixed paper  Textiles

The materials will be collected according to existing market quality requirements. Mixed paper and newspaper are placed in blue rectangular covered recycling containers provided to residents. Cardboard is bundled and placed at the curb. Textiles are placed in collection bags provided and collected by the contractor.

The aluminum, steel, plastic, and glass are commingled in a standard recycling container and placed at the curb for pick up. The commingled material is collected in a separate compartment of the collection vehicle and is not mixed with any of the paper or textile streams.

The MCIA collection program may in the future provide for collection of other items as markets become available. Collection is from all residential units, including multi-family complexes. Small businesses which generate a low volume of recyclables and are currently serviced by municipal pick up

continue to be serviced under this plan. Large businesses and commercial and industrial complexes continue to be serviced as they currently are, the vast majority of which are by private contractors.

Middlesex County will permit those municipalities which choose to retain all or a portion of their present recycling practices to do so, provided that they comply with both present and future requirements of the County Recycling Plan. Said municipalities will still be required to: meet the minimum standards of the County Recycling Plan in terms of the materials to be collected; ensure that all recyclables collected are Intermediate Processing Facility compatible and processable; and to ensure that types and quantities of recyclables are properly documented. Municipalities opting not to participate in the MCIA Curbside Collection Program must submit to the County, for review, their municipal recycling plan to ensure that it meets all necessary requirements of the County Recycling Plan. After County review, the municipality will have ninety (90) days, unless extended for just cause by the MCIA, to correct any inconsistencies and to bring its plan into complete compliance with the County’s program requirements.

The MCIA, through its selected contractor, may in the future also offer yard waste and bulky household waste collection service to the municipalities.

Funding: A portion of the MCIA Curbside Collection Program was originally funded through the Resource Recovery Investment Tax Funds. Participating municipalities share the cost with the MCIA for recycling collection services. Due to the economies of scale, the MCIA has been able to provide recycling collection service through a Master Contract at less cost than most of the existing costs appropriated in the municipal budgets.

The primary goal of the MCIA sponsored collection through a private hauler is to realize cost savings through uniformity in collection, processing, and marketing and related program efficiencies.

The municipalities have the following options under a Master Contract for the collection, processing, and marketing of recyclable materials:

Full Participation: A private contractor retained by the MCIA would assume the collection, processing, and marketing of all recyclables for municipalities not desiring to keep their own municipal collection program. A credit percentage of a minimum of 25% of the MCIA’s contract amount may be applied to reduce the costs to the municipality, exclusive of unique or special services as requested by said municipality.

Grant Participation: Those municipalities electing to continue collecting, processing and marketing the recyclables themselves are required to meet the minimum specifications of the County Recycling Plan. For Grant Participating Municipalities, the MCIA will develop a formula for financial encouragement grants to be made available to municipalities wishing to continue with locally implemented recycling programs. The formula will consider program costs, efficiency, and program compliance, and grants will be based thereon. In no case will reimbursement be made to any municipality in excess of the credit percentage made for Full Participants of the costs incurred for MCIA implemented programs. Grants were available for a period of five years, terminating on December 31, 1999. Via Administrative Action 008-99, grants for additional years were proposed to be provided while funding was still available.

The map on the following page shows which municipalities are currently full participants as of June 2011 in the MCIA curbside program (A-Towns) and which are grant participants (C-Towns).

Marketing: Under the MCIA-sponsored curbside collection program, the private contractor is assigned the task of marketing the recyclables. All existing marketing contracts were maintained through to their termination date. The contracts may be renegotiated through the MCIA as a contracting party to secure more long term contracts. The contracts will specify quality standards for the program to meet as well as revenue sharing formula. In addition, the MCIA will promote in-county markets for recycled products through its own and other agencies’ purchasing power.

Materials Recovery Facility (MRF): The Plan calls for the utilization of private MRF capacity to beneficiate commingled recyclables to market specifications which yield the greatest economic advantage to the County. The MCIA may implement development of a MRF, if in the opinion of the Board of Freeholders, after receiving input from SWAC, the private sector is unable to process the County’s commingled materials to a satisfactory market specification in a cost-effective manner based upon lowest annual operating cost for the participating municipalities.

Public Awareness/Education Programs: In conformance with previous recommendations, the MCIA has embarked on a comprehensive public information/education campaign relative to all phases of the County Recycling Plan. This education will be aimed at all age groups and may utilize such tools as public speaker presentations, posters, flyers, and a recycling calendar specifying when, what and how recyclables are to be handled. The MCIA will retain a public relations specialist to assist in the development of an effective public education program. The MCIA will assist the municipalities in the development of public awareness, and education and in the dissemination of recycling information. Cost effective use of mass media publicity techniques will supplement traditional governmental information efforts.

Interim Yard Waste Program As of October 1995, the MCIA manages the yard waste program for the County. Under Plan Amendment 1994-4, the MCIA may hire a private contractor to manage and operate existing sites or the MCIA may elect to operate the sites themselves if it determines it to be the most cost effective option. Municipalities retain responsibility for the collection and transportation of both leaves and brush to said sites, unless they choose to enter into voluntary interlocal service agreements with the MCIA as identified as an option under the collection program previously described.

Services under this program are currently supplied by the MCIA with a charge of 75% for leaves and brush and a charge of 100% for grass paid by the participating municipalities, except for those specialized services as requested by an individual municipality and as negotiated between said municipality and the MCIA.

As of 1997, the MCIA hired a contractor to operate the Sayreville and Kilmer Compost Sites. Both sites are now closed. The Quarry Lane Compost Site continues to be operated by the County Parks Department. The MCIA also operates a transfer facility for yard waste adjacent to the Middlesex County Landfill.

A pilot grass program was also established in 1995. Under this program, municipalities may choose to request roll-off containers for grass. The containers are located at a municipal facility or the town may opt to deliver the grass to a regional site. These containers are pulled by a contractor at cost to the town, and the grass is sent out of County for composting.

The Municipal Program Summary in Appendix V details where each municipality was designated to bring their leaves and brush and whether they participate in the pilot grass program.

conjunction with, these drop-off centers. The recycling system must provide for all mandated recyclables in the residential waste stream.

The DSWM will compile and maintain an updated list of those facilities. e) The MCEHD may, at its discretion, elect to enter into an interagency agreement with the DSWM and/or the MCIA to provide for an additional Recycling Generator Inspector. The program will be under the authority and direction of the MCEHD. The day to day supervision of the inspector will be provided by the DSWM under the interagency agreement with the MCEHD. The inspector will conduct inspections at schools and construction sites and also inspections of waste disposed at Middlesex County Landfill to ensure compliance with recycling requirements. The inspector may conduct inspections at additional types of facilities at the sole discretion of the MCEHD. The inspector will submit inspection reports to the Recycling Program Coordinator. The MCEHD will have the sole authority to process submitted reports and take the required enforcement actions. This will include the sole authority to issue and collect penalties. The MCEHD shall, at its sole discretion, have the right to terminate this agreement at anytime.

11. Exemptions a) Section 6d of the Mandatory Source Separation and Recycling Act (N.J.S.A. 13:1E-99.16d) provides for exemption from the source separation requirements in the case of commercial and institutional generators of recyclables that can demonstrate that other arrangements have been made for the separation and marketing of recyclables. The requirements for claiming this exemption are as follows:

On March 31, 2008, all existing exemptions shall be revoked and must be reapplied for consistent with the following guidelines.  The mixed waste and recyclables taken from an eligible location may only be taken to a licensed “Transfer Station/MRF”. That facility must have the ability to separate out for recycling all mandated recyclables that were commingled with the garbage.  Exemptions are valid for a period of up to three years which will begin on the date of issuance and expire on March 31st of the third year.  No exemption renewal will be issued if the recycling tonnage report is not received by March 1st of each year.  The generator must apply in writing for the exemption and receive an official written notice that it has been granted from that municipal official(s) authorized by the ordinance to grant exemptions. The exemption request must be accompanied by the following information: o A letter from the specified hauler agreeing to have the mandated materials separated, which must specifically list the materials that will be separated. o A letter from the specified receiving facility including the valid NJDEP permit number that states the mandated materials will be separated. o An explanation of why their particular operation, circumstance or facility makes adhering to the source separation requirements of the recycling plan impractical. o A description of the nature of the business and the estimated monthly and yearly tonnages of solid waste and designated recyclables to be generated by their facility. The generator must demonstrate that they have at least 75% mandated recyclables in their waste stream to qualify for the exemption.

o A list of mandated materials that the materials recovery facility will be recycling for their business. o A description of how the generator disposed of their solid waste pursuant to Middlesex County’s waste flow strategy (Plan Amendment 1997-3) and handled recyclables up to the date of the application. o A listing of any violations cited (and disposition thereof) for the generator with respect to the solid waste or recyclables generated from their facility. o The application shall be certified under oath so that in the event there is a deliberate misstatement, the applicant will be subject to enforcement action.  If during the term of the exemption, the generator switches haulers, or the hauler switches the receiving facility, the existing exemption is no longer valid and must be reapplied for.

 If the generator is granted the exemption, the company is required to include signage in a prominent place that states that recyclable material is being sorted out at a materials recovery facility.

 The generator must be able to show the exemption approval and a copy of his/her waste removal contract when the exemption is claimed to the MCEHD recycling inspector.

 Any exemptions granted by the municipality will have to be material specific, list the hauler name, and identify by street address the exact location of the business that has been granted the exemption. Businesses with more than one location must apply for exemptions for each location separately. A copy of each exemption granted must be submitted by the municipality to the DSWM. In addition, municipalities may choose not to include the exemption provision in their updated recycling ordinance, amend their updated ordinance that provides for exemptions to eliminate the exemption provision if they are not satisfied that all requirements of the exemption(s) are being met, or may, if their updated recycling ordinance provides for exemptions, revoke an individual exemption for non- compliance at any time. Also, municipalities may wish to consider charging a fee to process the application for an exemption. b) The following provisions apply to all: 1. Exemptions pertain to commercial and institutional (medical, educational, government) establishments only, not residential premises. Residential premises include single-family homes, garden and high-rise apartments, condos, townhouses, and other multi-family units. 2. Properly licensed haulers utilizing a properly licensed Transfer Station/MRF who service commercial and institutional generators may not collect commingled garbage and recyclables without the generator having first obtained a duly authorized exemption from their respective municipality. Haulers servicing non-exempted generators (including residential/multi-family locations which are not allowed exemptions) shall not collect and mix in one vehicle the generator’s garbage and source separated recyclables. Those haulers found to be mixing a non-exempted generator’s garbage and recyclables will be in violation of the County Plan and subject to enforcement action and the imposition of penalties issued by the MCEHD as specified in Appendix VI.

D. Waste Management Agreements

Middlesex County has no agreements to accept waste from other counties or send waste to facilities in other counties. The County has no agreements or contracts to provide for Middlesex waste being disposed in out-of-county facilities or out-of-state facilities. Middlesex County has no contracts with commercial haulers except for removal of waste and recyclables from County facilities.

Commercial contracts for waste removal or recyclables collection have been entered into by various municipalities. Information is provided in the Municipal Program Summary in Appendix V.

In addition, the MCIA has entered into a five-year contract with Waste Management of New Jersey for the collection of recyclables in the municipalities fully participating in the MCIA’s curbside recycling program. The contract expires on March 28, 2015. The MCIA has also entered into an agreement with Nature's Choice for yard waste management services. This contract expires on March 31, 2013.

E. Plan Inclusion/Plan Amendments For New Solid Waste And Recycling Facilities

In the case of solid waste, compost, and recycling facilities, County Plan inclusion must be obtained before a DEP permit will be issued.

Appendix III provides the Solid Waste Advisory Council (SWAC) “Application Filing Requirements” for review of recycling and solid waste facilities. The Application Filing Requirements are reviewed and updated periodically by a SWAC subcommittee. The DSWM will make copies of the County requirements available upon request.

The procedure for obtaining County approval for Plan inclusion of solid waste and Class B, certain Class C (non-vegetative), and Class D recycling facilities in the County Plan follows the major plan amendment procedures as outlined in Chapter 1, Section B.

Class A facilities will be included in the Plan via the Administrative Action procedure subject to the following conditions:  If any substantive objections to the site location are raised by the host municipality, the DSWM, or any other person, the facility shall be subject to the formal Plan Amendment process. Substantive objections would not include any issues concerning compliance with local zoning and planning ordinances. The decision to require the plan amendment process shall be made by the DSWM (after consulting with the Solid Waste Advisory Council).  All Administrative Actions for inclusion of new Class A recycling facilities will be approved or rejected by the Middlesex County Board of Chosen Freeholders by duly adopted resolution. The resolution approving, or disapproving the Administrative Action will be submitted to the NJ DEP by the DSWM.  Applicants for new Class A facility inclusion will still need to publish two notices as per the “Application Filing Requirements for Class A, B, C, and D Recycling Facilities”. However, the second notice must be published no more than 30 and no less than 10 calendar days prior to the Board of Chosen Freeholders meeting at which the inclusion request will be first considered.

The procedure for obtaining County approval for Plan inclusion of Class C vegetative composting (including leaves, grass, and brush), and leaf composting operations (exclusive of non-yard waste composting which must go through the formal Plan inclusion process) as per Plan Amendment 1992-4 is as follows:

The host municipality and the DSWM shall be notified in writing of the proposed application/filing package and each receive a full copy of the complete application/filing package, that will later be submitted to the NJ DEP by the applicant, following plan inclusion. This shall include all engineering designs, reports, maps, etc. which the NJ DEP requires of the applicant. At a minimum, a project description containing the following information shall be submitted to the host municipality and the County:

1. The corporate name, address, and telephone number of the person seeking to own and operate the proposed vegetative waste compost facility; 2. The name of the individual serving as the contact person for the compost facility; 3. The location of the proposed vegetative waste compost facility, including lot and block, and generally recognized address of the site; 4. The acreage of the site and/or square footage of the vegetative waste compost facility; 5. The zoning of the site; 6. A description of the material(s) to be composted; 7. A description of the compost operation in narrative form; 8. A map delineating the actual location of the facility in relation to the host municipality and neighboring communities including wetlands designation of site on a United States Geological Survey (U.S.G.S.) quadrangle; 9. A description of the major equipment to be used at the compost facility; 10. A description of the methods to be used to address environmental impacts such as odors, noise, dust, and visual impacts; and 11. A full copy of the complete application as submitted to the NJ DEP including all engineering design reports, maps, etc.

The applicant shall publish two (2) notices of the proposed application, once each week for two (2) consecutive weeks, in the Home News Tribune. A notice shall set forth: 1. The nature of the project; 2. The block and lot numbers of the site location; 3. The generally recognized address of the site; 4. The location of the depositories for inspection of the complete application and supporting documents which in all cases shall be the municipal building of the host municipality and the DSWM; and 5. A statement that written comments on the proposed application will be accepted by the Middlesex County DSWM for a period of 30 days from the date of the first notice. This notice shall state that this is the only opportunity for public comment prior to permitting.

The applicant shall submit written documentation that all applicable local approvals and permits have been secured.

The applicant shall notify by way of certified, return receipt mail all property owners within 200 feet of the property proposed for use in the compost facility.

If no substantive objections to the site location are raised by the host municipality, the DSWM, or any other person, the facility shall be deemed consistent with the County Solid Waste Management Plan.

If, however, any such substantive objection is raised, as determined by the County, the proposed site and facility must be subject to the formal plan amendment process pursuant to N.J.S.A. 13:1E-23 and 24 including notice, public hearing, and Freeholder Board approval prior to submission of a filing/application package, whichever the case may be, for NJ DEP approval.

The County Freeholder Board shall approve or disapprove the vegetative waste compost facility's request to be included in the County Plan under the blanket inclusion policy by duly adopted resolution. The resolution approving, disapproving or subjecting the facility to the formal review process, shall be submitted to the NJ DEP along with a transmittal letter, once the blanket inclusion

process has been completed for a particular site, and shall include the detailed project description set forth above.

For any facility proposing in-vessel technology, the major plan amendment process shall be followed pursuant to Chapter 1 Section B of this Plan, including notice and public hearing, County Freeholder Board approval, and subsequent NJ DEP approval prior to construction of the facility.

Prior to the approval of Plan Amendment 1992-4, any operating yard waste compost facilities and/or mulching facilities were automatically included in the County Plan. A formal plan amendment was not necessary.

F. Coordination and Provision Of New Facilities

Coordination among municipal, county and state organizations with respect to this Plan, inclusion of new facilities and all recycling efforts is provided by the DSWM. In particular, the Division asks for municipal comments before acting to include a new solid waste or recycling facility in the Plan. The Division provides staff support to the County SWAC and provides minutes for its meetings.

The Division coordinates closely with the MCEHD which derives authority from the County Environmental Health Act to regulate solid waste facilities. Reports of illegal activity are immediately relayed to the MCEHD. Very close cooperation is maintained with respect to the team of MCEHD inspectors assigned to enforcing the County’s recycling program.

The Board of Chosen Freeholders has designated the MCUA as the implementing agency for a long term landfill. The Board designated the MCIA as the implementing agency for the County’s recycling program and for the long term HHW program. The Solid Waste Management Division works cooperatively with the MCUA and MCIA on matters relating to implementation.

G. Planning - Financing

1. Resource Recovery Investment Tax Spending Plan

The Resource Recovery Investment Tax (RRIT) was approved by the legislature and the governor in 1984. It was one of a package of taxes imposed at New Jersey disposal sites to raise funds for recycling, general solid waste management projects, and in the case of RRIT, to begin immediately to develop a fund that would cushion the “rate shock” expected to result from building waste to energy (resource recovery) facilities. After 1990, when waste to energy facilities lost favor, RRIT funds began to be utilized to fund County-wide recycling programs.

In February, 1987, the Board of Chosen Freeholders approved a Plan Amendment (1987-1) providing for use of the funds to build a recycling sorting center and to reduce the costs of constructing the resource recovery plant. The DEP Commissioner approved the drawdown plan on January 14, 1988. Only $450,000 of the money approved in the drawdown plan was expended and those funds were spent on costs related to the Resource Recovery project.

In early 1992, via Plan Amendment 1992-5, $300,000 of the RRIT funds were appropriated for the hiring of an engineering/consulting firm to assist the County in formulating a comprehensive long term County managed recycling system.

In 1992, Plan Amendment 1992-7 was adopted which provided a $3,055,000 drawdown of the RRIT fund via the Municipal Recycling Assistance Program Grants. The objective of the program was to assist each municipality in the conduct of its local recycling program and to provide a financial

incentive for each community to expand its recycling efforts. These grants were distributed to every municipality following approval of the municipality’s grant application. Funds were distributed as follows:

Each municipality received a base amount of $30,000. The remaining funds were disbursed according to the following percentages: 40% of the appropriation was based on population 50% of the appropriation was based on recycling tonnage collected according to the 1991 Bonus Grant Form 10% of the appropriation was based on the land area of the municipality.

The municipal allocations were as follows:

The municipalities were permitted to utilize the funds only for their recycling programs, including costs related to personnel, collection, equipment, marketing, education, and enforcement. Municipalities were given approximately one year to spend their grants. 56

The program was repeated in 1994 via Plan Amendment 1994-1. The disbursements and program requirements were identical to those in the earlier amendment.

Also in 1994, via Plan Amendment 1994-3, a disbursement schedule was set and approved by NJ DEP for the remaining RRIT funds. The disbursement was for the County managed long term recycling system. The funds would be used to reduce the costs of recycling to fully participating municipalities by credits of a minimum of 50% of those costs of the MCIA curbside collection program. Grant- participating municipalities would receive grants of a lesser percentage than that credit being awarded to fully participating municipalities.

Five million dollars was allocated for the collection subsidies to municipalities. Funds were also allocated for the following areas:

1. Consulting/Project Management - for recycling projects needing a professional engineering firm 2. Interim Yard Waste - for the hiring of a company to manage various compost facilities around the County 3. Grass - for the pilot project of siting containers at municipal public works yards for the collection and recycling of grass 4. Administration - for various administrative costs related to the program 5. Education - for a campaign to educate the residents about the various portions of the recycling program 6. Contingencies - any unexpected costs related to the program

The following details the disbursement schedule.

2. Finance Plans for Major County Facilities

NJ DEP regulations require a formal plan of finance for each facility be presented to the public, reviewed at a public hearing and be submitted by the Freeholders as a Plan Amendment. In the spring of 1989, a plan was prepared for the costs of acquiring land and building a new state of the art landfill at the Edgeboro site (Amendment 1989-10). This Plan Amendment was approved by the NJ DEP and in summary is as follows:

Funding for the capital requirements of the Middlesex County Landfill will come from 1 or more of the following 5 sources:

1. tax exempt bond proceeds 2. taxable bond proceeds (if required) 3. equity contribution by MCUA (reserve funds) 4. RRIT funds (currently devoted to the recycling program) 5. interest earnings on unexpended proceeds

3. Other Funding

The DSWM has received in the past and continues to receive other grant and fee monies that fund special programs.

The Recycling Tax grant, which sunset in 1996, was used to fund special recycling programs such as the tire recycling program, assembly programs for schools, the household battery program, and the County’s office paper pick-up program. The Solid Waste Services Tax (SWST) fund (approximately $300,000 per year) was generally utilized for funding the Household Hazardous Waste Events and maintenance of the compost machines. The SWST grants ended in 2008. It was replaced by the Recycling Enhancement Act grant which funds the programs previously funded by the SWST. The Clean Communities Grant (approximately $50,000 per year) is used for the Adopt-a-Road program and other cleanup activities. The previous four grants are/were received from the NJ DEP. The Solid Waste Management Service Fees (approximately $100,000 per year) is used to fund programs previously funded by the Recycling Tax grant and to supplement funding for the Household Hazardous Waste events, Consumer Electronics Program and Household Batteries Program.

12. Recycling Enhancement Grant (REG):

This program, which began in 2004, was a competitive program whereby municipalities submitted grant applications for various recycling projects. Municipalities were required to match a portion of the grant. Each year, a “theme” was chosen to focus on certain areas that the Division felt would benefit the County’s overall recycling efforts. In past years, the themes have included improving municipal drop-offs, educating the public about recycling, and school recycling. Six grants were awarded in 2004, five in 2005, eight in 2006, nine in 2007, and eight in 2008. Due to budgetary constraints, the Division ended the program in 2009.

H. Use Of Terminated Disposal Facilities

The Solid Waste Management Act requires the County to indicate the future utilization of closed landfill sites.

The Division recommends that all municipalities and the Middlesex County Planning Department classify closed landfills as “open space” until it can be adequately determined that the site is suitable for other classification. It is also recommended that the Middlesex County Planning Department and each municipality’s Land Use Plan establish a special land use and zoning classification for terminated landfills and adjacent affected areas if any. The provisions of this classification should assure that the purchase or ownership transfer of terminated landfills or affected nearby lands, if any, be accompanied by adequate notice of previous use, use restrictions, etc. Careful investigation of the requirements of the proposed use as related to the details of the previous use as a landfill should be incorporated into any application for a construction permit or site plan approval.

I. County Planning - Public Information, Education, And Enforcement Program

Middlesex County operates a broad scale public information program in cooperation with its 25 municipalities and expects to continue and to expand the program described below.

The Solid Waste Advisory Council (SWAC) meets almost every month each year and has maintained this record for more than 15 years. Membership consists of citizen, business, industrial, waste industry, environmental, and municipal representatives. Each mayor is a member during his/her term of office and may designate an alternate attendee. The press (radio stations and newspapers) is always notified and occasionally attends the meetings. Minutes are routinely prepared and mailed to all SWAC members.

Press releases are prepared and sent out when significant events occur.

Local cable television calendars and public service announcements are used to inform the public about special events like Household Hazardous Waste Collection Days.

Approximately $20,000.00 per year is budgeted in connection with advertisements pertaining to the Household Hazardous Waste collection events, tire collections, and other special events. Legal notices are published in connection with each Plan Amendment public hearing.

The DSWM provides written information to Mayors and Councils of all municipalities on major new programs and on updates and results of ongoing programs.

The County regularly hires educational assembly program performers to provide shows to elementary schools throughout the County.

The Recycling Field Inspection Program has been designed and operated primarily as a public education program for businesses and multi-family residences. Emphasis has been on information and persuasion rather than on enforcement. The MCEHD operates this program.

The Rutgers Cooperative Extension of Middlesex County is regularly enlisted to assist in education through newspaper columns, radio broadcasts and selected mailings, informing citizens about backyard composting, the grass cut-it-and-leave-it program, and the use of compost.

The Division staff makes itself available as a speakers bureau.

The Division continues to be a distribution agent for videotapes made by the County, the NJ DEP, and by companies promoting various aspects of solid waste management and recycling.

The Division awarded grant monies to schools and other organizations for projects benefiting the environment. The Environmental Preservation/Protection Contest, which began in 1996, had provided over $130,000 to 169 groups for projects (through 2009) such as the creation of a composting program for lunch room food waste, the creation of an outdoor classroom in the form of a school garden, a litter pickup program, and the purchase of environmental educational materials.

In connection with the County offices recycling collection program, marked containers and information materials have been distributed to all County locations.

Recycling stickers and other recycling promotional materials are distributed on request to a wide variety of organizations.

Division staff attends municipal fairs and events sponsored by the Extension Service.

J. Future Directions for the County in Waste Management

1. To increase recycling of previously designated materials the County will:

a) In cooperation with the MCUA, undertake a new waste composition study to ensure that our waste stream percentages are accurate and to determine if other strategies should be implemented. This is currently being completed. b) Resume a more structured inspection program at the Middlesex County Landfill and private transfer stations to ensure that designated materials are recycled. c) Begin inspection of construction and demolition sites to ensure that all mandated materials, especially cardboard, are being recycled. d) Focus education strategies on homeowners to increase recycling of cardboard and mixed paper. e) Increase the number of paper shred events sponsored by the Division. f) Work with school districts to increase their recycling efforts. g) Increase the number of inspections performed at convenience stores to ensure that they are adhering to the recycling requirements including the placement of recycling containers(s) inside and, where permissible by local ordinance, outside, their stores. h) Develop guidelines for new multi-family/commercial developments to ensure that they will provide adequate space to accommodate recycling. Municipalities will be required to include these guidelines in their updated ordinances. i) Work with schools and organizers of major events such as: fairs, concerts, and sporting events to ensure they are providing adequate, clearly marked containers for recycling. j) In cooperation with the MCIA, initiate a public information campaign with an emphasis on recycling being the law.

2. To increase recycling of Other Materials Recommended for Recycling the County will:

a) Develop an informational handout on recycling of non-mandated construction materials. This handout will be provided by the Compliance Inspector during site visits and by the municipalities when issuing construction permits.

3. To increase source reduction efforts and therefore decrease the amount of solid waste generated, the following is planned: 62

a) The County will expand the consumer electronics drop-off program through the use of one day events, expanded incorporation of municipal drop-offs, and/or the development of a DSWM convenience center drop-off. b) The Middlesex County Haz-Mat unit has recently begun visiting schools to help identify lab waste that needs to be properly disposed. The County will also look at the potential of funding or arranging for a joint bid to more cost effectively dispose of hazardous waste material and electronics. c) The County plans to establish a consolidation point for residentially generated fluorescent bulbs at the proposed DSWM convenience center drop-off. The County will also examine the feasibility of establishing a consolidation point for commercially generated fluorescent bulbs. d) The County plans to establish a temporary household hazardous waste (HHW) secured holding site at the DSWM convenience center drop-off to complement our current HHW events. e) The County has set aside REG money in 2007 to award a grant to a town that agrees to implement a pilot Pay-As-You-Throw Program. f) The County has been offering backyard and vermi composting program classes biannually. With the completion of the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Service’s EARTH center, we plan to offer more classes in the future. g) The County will continue and expand the mercury thermometer exchange program. h) In cooperation with the MCIA, the County will revive the educational efforts on the grass “Cut it and Leave it” Program.

4. The Division proposes to use available grant or fee monies to fund one MCEHD (CEHA) Solid Waste/Recycling Inspector who will be assigned specifically to focus on special projects such as: o More frequent recycling compliance inspections at the Middlesex County Landfill. o More frequent recycling compliance inspections at private transfer stations. o Inspections of construction and demolition sites to ensure they are recycling mandated items and to provide information on recycling other recommended items. o Inspections of convenience stores to ensure that they have proper recycling container(s) for the mandated items inside and where permissible by local ordinance, outside. o Inspections of schools to ensure that they are providing for the recycling of mandated items.

5. The County proposes to establish a DSWM convenience center drop-off to expand current drop-off opportunities for residents, make programs more convenient, and to host pilot programs. The site would accept:  consumer electronics  paint  propane tanks  tires  HHW (for temporary, secured holding)  household batteries  fluorescent bulbs

The site would also be used to store and sell our backyard and vermi composting bins and as a permanent mercury thermometer exchange/consolidation location.

6. The County has been aggressively increasing its school recycling education efforts during the last few years. When funding was available, the Division awarded Environmental Awareness Grants, in an

amount of up to $1000 for environmental projects at qualifying schools. In addition, Division personnel in cooperation with municipal recycling coordinators, have made numerous presentations on recycling, waste reduction, composting and vermicomposting. Over 100 vermi and backyard compost bins have been donated to schools. The County has also continued and expanded the number of recycling assembly programs provided to schools. Future plans to increase the recycling at schools include:

o A REG grant “theme” for 2006 and 2007 was school recycling. The Division is encouraging municipalities to purchase containers and other equipment so that schools can initiate or enhance their current recycling programs. o The Division is currently seeking funds for an additional one-time grant to buy equipment, containers, and collection devices for schools. o Schools will be subject to increased recycling education and compliance inspections. o All schools must provide written notice at the beginning of each school year, to all students, teachers, and other staff on the recycling requirements. The notice must contain a contact number to call if they observe any problems associated with recycling or if recycling is not properly occurring.

APPENDIX VI Middlesex County CEHA Recycling Generator Penalty Resolution for Generators of Designated Recyclable Materials WHEREAS, Middlesex County designated the Middlesex County Public Health Department (MCPHD) as the County entity for administration of the County Environmental Health Act (CEHA) Program, pursuant to N.J.S.A. 26:3A2-21 et seq. (CEHA). WHEREAS, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) certified approval of the County CEHA Plan for solid waste environmental enforcement, among other things, authorizing the MCPHD to enforce the Solid Waste Management Act and the rules and regulations adopted thereunder. WHEREAS, the County has recommended adoption of a Resolution to establish penalties for violations of the Middlesex County District Solid Waste Management plan to source separate designated recyclable materials in accordance with the State’s Solid Waste Management Act, and the rules and regulations adopted thereunder. ORDAINED, by the Middlesex County Board of Chosen Freeholders that the Middlesex County CEHA Recycling Generator Resolution is as follows:

Section I - Authority: This Resolution is enacted pursuant to and consistent with the County Environmental Health Act, N.J.S.A. 26:3A2-21 et seq. and the Solid Waste Management Act, N.J.S.A. 13:1E-1 et seq., and the rules and regulations adopted thereunder.

Section II - Purpose: This Resolution establishes penalty amounts for violations of unique recycling generator requirements found in the solid waste management plan for Middlesex County, which shall be assessed and collected by the County of Middlesex and its authorized solid waste agents, and as such, supplements the provisions its Solid Waste Management Plan as approved by NJDEP.

Section III - Requirements Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan Section C 6. Responsibilities of the County b) Solid Waste Facility Inspection Program Inspectors from the County Public Health Department and the Middlesex County Utilities Authority will conduct inspections for recyclables on a year-round basis at the Middlesex County Landfill (MCLF). The purpose of this inspection program is to assure that no recyclables are disposed at the County’s disposal site. The inspectors will perform a thorough inspection of any load that is observed to contain readily visible amounts of designated recyclable materials. Spreading and covering of the load will be delayed while the inspection is conducted. If the inspection discloses a violation a Notice of Violation will be issued according to the provisions of this Plan.

Solid waste and recyclables haulers, municipal or private, are responsible for what they collect. They will be subject to inspections at transfer stations, landfills, and recycling facilities. If violations are disclosed enforcement action will be taken and penalties will be issued as provided in Appendix VI.

Since haulers are responsible for what they transport to the MCLF, Notices of Violation will be issued to the hauler. Penalties are assessed progressively based on the haulers’ record of past violations and demonstrated results in working with generators to eliminate recyclables from the waste stream. The Department will attempt to identify the generator of the recyclables. Where generators can be identified the Recycling Generator Inspection Program will follow up with an inspection at the generator. Follow up inspections will be conducted and penalties will be issued if necessary to assure compliance.

10. Compliance By Generators This section describes the required actions to be taken by generators of recyclables to ensure Middlesex County will meet and exceed the 60% recycling goal imposed by State Law. a) Residential Compliance Requirements (single family and up to four-family houses) Citizens are responsible for source separating mandated items according to municipal ordinances and consistent with the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan and delivering them to the municipal collection system (whether curbside collection, bulk center or drop-off center). These items must be source separated; no mandated recyclables are permitted in the garbage put out for collection; no garbage is permitted in recyclables placed in the municipality’s collection system. b) Multi-family Compliance Requirements (condominiums, townhouses, low and high-rise apartments). 1. The owner/management is responsible for ensuring that a recycling system is established and that it is operated in compliance with the requirements of the municipal ordinance and this Plan. The owner/management is responsible for setting up and maintaining the recycling system. The owner/management is responsible for receiving and responding to Warnings, Notices of Violation, and Penalty Assessments and for correcting violations. The owner/management will be expected to correct violations promptly and to make necessary direct contacts with residents. 2. Drop-off centers (bulk centers) must be established and maintained so that they are conveniently accessible to residents. Curbside collection may be made available in place of, or in conjunction with, these drop-off centers. The recycling system must provide for all mandated recyclables in the residential waste stream. The recycling system may utilize separate containers for each recyclable material or it may provide for two or more materials to be placed in one container provided the recycling hauler can take the materials commingled. Containers must be clearly marked and the area neatly maintained. Container capacity must be adequate to hold the amount of materials generated between pick-ups. It must be clear to an inspector that the system is being serviced 3. It must be clear that the system is being use properly by employees and tenants. There must not be garbage in the recycling containers or recyclables in the garbage containers. The owner/management is responsible for resolving problems which may arise from the improper use of containers and for training employees and tenants to properly understand and use the recycling system. 4. Notification and collection rules shall be issued by the management to new tenants when they arrive and to all residents every three months. Copies of these notices, or other proof of distribution of the notices, must be sent to the municipal recycling coordinator at the time of each mailing or distribution. 5. The owner/management is responsible for arranging to have recyclables picked up and for resolving any problems with the transporter of recyclables. 6. The owner/management must arrange to obtain documentation in order to report the tonnages of materials recycled at least once per year (or as specified by the municipality) or else he/she must arrange to have the collector provide that documentation directly to the municipality. Arrangements with recycling companies or with haulers handling recyclables should include provisions for obtaining this information. Documentation must be maintained by the management. When the municipality provides recyclables collection service, reporting and proof are not needed. 7. Single/Dual Stream Recycling: Multi-family locations may opt to collect their recyclables in a single stream or dual stream (fiber, commingled) provided the Intermediate Processing Facility (IPF) that receives the material has certified that they have the ability to separate and maximize the capture rate of the mandated recyclables. The Division of Solid Waste Management will compile and maintain an updated list of those facilities. c) Commercial and Institutional Compliance Requirements (retail, wholesale, restaurants, taverns, schools, institutions - including government, warehouses, construction sites, factories, offices, etc. but specifically excluding Fairs, Parks, Concerts, and other Outdoor Events – see section d) 1. The owner/operator (or in case of construction, the contractor), is responsible for ensuring that a recycling system is established and that it is operated in compliance with the requirements of the municipal ordinance and this Plan. The owner/operator/contractor is responsible for setting up and maintaining the recycling system. The owner/operator/contractor is responsible for receiving and responding to Warnings, Notices of Violation, and Penalty Assessments and for correcting violations promptly. 2. The recycling system must be established and maintained so that it is are conveniently accessible to users. The recycling system must provide for all mandated recyclables in the commercial waste stream. The recycling system may utilize separate containers for each recyclable material or it may provide for two or more materials to be placed in one container provided the recycling hauler can take the materials commingled. Containers must be clearly marked and the area neatly maintained. Container capacity must be adequate to hold the amount of materials generated between pick-ups. It must be clear to the inspector that the system is being serviced 3. The owner/operator/contractor must ensure that the system is being use properly by employees, customers or tenants. There must not be garbage in the recycling containers or recyclables in the garbage containers. The owner/operator/contractor is responsible for resolving problems which may arise from the improper use of containers and for instructing employees, tenants, and customers to understand and use the recycling system. 4. If patrons, customers or employees are involved in the waste disposal process (i.e. fast food stores or company cafeteria), the recycling system must allow for this and include notice to customers as to their responsibilities. 5. The owner/operator/contractor is responsible for arranging for recyclables to be removed from the premises and for assuring that they go into the recyclables market. The owner/operator/contractor may make arrangements to deliver the recyclables to the municipal collection system (drop-off center or curbside collection) if permitted by the municipality. Otherwise, the owner/operator/contractor is responsible for arranging to have recyclables picked up and for resolving any problems with the transporter of recyclables. 6. The owner/operator/contractor must arrange to obtain documentation in order to report the tonnages of materials recycled at least once per year (or as specified by the municipality) or else he/she must arrange to have the collector provide that documentation directly to the municipality. 7. Single/Dual Stream Recycling: Commercial and Institutional establishments may opt to collect their recyclables in a single stream or dual stream (fiber, commingled) provided the IPF that receives the material has certified that they have the ability to separate out and maximize the capture rate of the mandated recyclables. The Division will compile and maintain an updated list of those facilities. 8. Recycling Containers: Commercial and Institutional establishments that have outdoor garbage containers for their customers must also have outdoor recycling containers. There must be sufficient recycling containers for any mandated recyclables in the commercial/institutional waste stream. 9. All schools must provide written notice at the beginning of each school year, to all students, teachers, and other staff on the recycling requirements. The notice must contain a contact number to call if they observe any problems associated with recycling or if recycling is not properly occurring. 10. Single stream recycling of mixed classes of construction recyclables: Construction/Demolition sites may opt to collect all recyclables in one container provided there are no other materials (including garbage) in that container. To qualify for this provision, recyclables must go to a Transfer Station/MRF that is properly permitted by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and has certified that they have the ability to separate out and maximize the capture rate of the mandated materials. The specific materials that may be commingled together will be determined by the provisions in the receiving Transfer Station/MRF’s permit. The Division of Solid Waste Management will compile a list of eligible Transfer Station/MRFs and the respective eligible materials to be commingled. The Division will only include Transfer Station/MRFs on that list if they can demonstrate a minimum 70% recycling rate for ID 13C waste at their facility. All materials that go to the Transfer Station/MRF are subject to the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Service Fee. d) Requirements for Fairs, Parks, Concerts, Streets, and other Outdoor Events 1. The organizer/owner/contactor of the location must provide a recycling system that is operated in compliance with the requirements of the municipal ordinance and this Plan. 2. The recycling system must provide for any mandated recyclables generated at the event. It must be clear to an inspector that the system is being serviced: i.e., containers must be clearly marked and the area neatly maintained; there must not be garbage in the recyclables or recyclables in the garbage; container capacity must be adequate to hold materials between pick-ups. There must be sufficient recycling containers for any mandated recyclables generated at the event. 3. The organizer/owner/contactor is responsible for arranging for recyclables to be removed from the premises and for ensuring that they are taken to an approved recyclables market. The owner/operator/contractor may make arrangements to deliver the recyclables to the municipal collection system (drop-off center or curbside collection) if permitted by the municipality. Otherwise, the owner/operator/contractor is responsible for arranging to have recyclables collected and transported and for resolving any problems with the transporter of the recyclables. 4. The recycling system must be made accessible and available to all patrons, customers, and employees. Notice/signs must be provided to ensure all are aware of their responsibilities. 5. The owner/operator/contractor is responsible for obtaining pertinent documentation in order to report the tonnages of materials recycled at least once per year (or as specified by the municipality) or else he/she must arrange to have the collector provide that documentation directly to the municipality. 6. Single/Dual Stream Recycling: The recycling system may utilize separate containers for each recyclable material or it may provide for two or more materials to be placed in one container. Establishments may opt to collect their recyclables in a single stream or dual stream (fiber, commingled) provided the IPF that receives the material has certified that they have the ability to separate out and maximize the capture rate of the mandated recyclables. The Division of Solid Waste Management will compile and maintain an updated list of those facilities. e) The Middlesex County Health Department may, at its discretion, elect to enter into an interagency agreement with the Division of Solid Waste Management and/or the Middlesex County Improvement Authority to provide for an additional Recycling Generator Inspector. The program will be under the authority and direction of the Middlesex County Health Department. The day to day supervision of the inspector will be provided by the MCDSWM under the interagency agreement with the MCDPH. The inspector will conduct inspections at schools and construction sites and also inspections of waste disposed at Middlesex County Landfill to ensure compliance with recycling requirements. The inspector may conduct inspections at additional types of facilities at the sole discretion of the Middlesex County Health Department.

The inspector will submit inspection reports to the Recycling Program Coordinator. The Middlesex County Health Department will have the sole authority to process submitted reports and take the required enforcement actions. This will include the sole authority to issue and collect penalties. The Middlesex County Health Department shall, at its sole discretion, have the right to terminate this agreement at anytime.

11. Exemptions b) 2. Properly licensed haulers utilizing a properly licensed Transfer Station/MRF who service commercial and institutional generators may not collect commingled garbage and recyclables without the generator having first obtained a duly authorized exemption from their respective municipality. Haulers servicing non-exempted generators (including residential/multi-family locations which are not allowed exemptions) shall not collect and mix in one vehicle the generator’s garbage and source separated recyclables. Those haulers found to be mixing a non-exempted generator’s garbage and recyclables will be in violation of the County Plan and subject to enforcement action and the imposition of penalties issued by the MCPHD as specified in Appendix VI.

Section IV - Enforcement and Penalties The MCPHD is hereby individually and severally empowered to enforce the provisions of this Resolution. (A) Violation of any provision of this Resolution shall be cause for an enforcement document to be issued to the violator according to procedures as establish by the Middlesex County’s CEHA contract.

(B) Any person, corporation, occupant, or entity that violates or fails to comply with any provision of this Resolution or any of the rules and regulations promulgated hereunder shall be subject to penalties assessed according to provisions of appendix VI of the Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan:

Middlesex County Solid Waste Management Plan Appendix VI Generator Penalties For violations of Chapter 3, Section C.10;

1st offense - issue handwritten Notice of Noncompliance to the Generator or their representative on site at the completion of the inspection and mail a Notice of Violation (NOV). Both will be mailed to the Generator’s mailing address if different from the location of violation.

2nd offense –initial penalty shall be $100 per item violated.

Subsequent offenses result in the assessment of penalties according to the chart below up to a maximum of $5,000.00 per day, per item violated.

3rd offense $ 500.00 4th offense $ 1000.00 5th offense $ 2500.00 6th and subsequent $ 5,000.00 offenses

When an inspection discloses that a generator completely lacks a recycling system after having been issued a Notice of Violation the initial penalty assessment shall be $500.00.

Continued failure to setup a system will result in a doubling of the penalty with each subsequent offense up to a maximum of $5000.

The penalty aspect of this Generator enforcement procedure is deemed by the Middlesex County Public Health Department, Environmental Health Division - Solid Waste Program to be reasonable and conducive to settlement without cause for litigation with its associated costs. It is also expected to raise the awareness of the Generator and deter continued non-compliance with the recycling laws.

This procedure is subject to change as circumstances warrant.

Violators of Section 8 of Chapter 3B will be subject to notices of violations and penalty assessments. The range of penalties is $750 - $50,000 per occurrence. Penalties will be determined by the Public Health Department and shall be based on the severity of the violation and the cost of cleanup incurred by the County.

For the purpose of settling violations and to avoid the cost of unneeded litigation, the MCPHD shall have the right to negotiate with violators to reduce penalty amounts issued under this appendix. To be eligible for a penalty reduction a violator must achieve and remain in compliance. When circumstances warrant the Department may elect to hold in abeyance collection of penalties provided penalty amounts are modest and the violator remains in compliance.

(C) No provision of this resolution shall be construed to impair any common law or statutory cause of action, or legal remedy therefrom, of any person for injury or damage arising from any violation of this ordinance or from other law.

Section V - Severability and Repealer This Resolution shall take effect immediately, unless otherwise provided by Resolution of the governing body. (A) If any provision or portion of a provision of this Resolution is held to be unconstitutional, preempted by federal or State law, or otherwise invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions of the ordinance shall not be invalidated. (B) All ordinances or parts of ordinances, which are inconsistent with any provisions of this Resolution, are hereby repealed as to the extent of such inconsistencies. In the event that it is determined, by a Court of competent jurisdiction, that any provision or section of this resolution is unconstitutional, all other sections and provisions shall remain in effect.
