Sec. 22a-220c. Notification to collectors re items required to be recycled.
Warning notices. Inspections. Notification to municipalities re delinquent tipping
fees. (a) Each municipality, or its regional agent, shall, by mail, notify all collectors
registered to haul solid waste pursuant to section 22a-220a of the provisions made for
the collection, processing and marketing of items which are required to be recycled
pursuant to section 22a-241b or municipal ordinance. After the mailing of such notice,
any collector who has reason to believe that a person from whom he collects solid waste
has discarded recyclable items with such solid waste in violation of said section 22a-241b shall promptly notify the municipal agent designated pursuant to section 22a-220
of the alleged violation. Upon the request of the municipality, a collector shall provide
a warning notice, by tag or other means, to any person suspected by the collector or
municipality of violating separation requirements. A collector shall also assist the municipality to identify any person responsible for creating loads containing significant
quantities of recyclable items mixed with solid waste which are delivered to a resources
recovery facility or solid waste facility by the collector and detected by the owner or
operator of such facility pursuant to subsection (b) of this section.
(c) Where a collector of solid waste is delinquent in paying its tipping fees for a period of three consecutive months to a resources recovery facility or solid waste facility, the owner or operator of such facility shall notify each municipality in which such collector operates of such delinquency.
