The purpose and effect of the proposed rule development is to revise Chapter 62-709, F.A.C., to include changes to the current definitions, revisions to the registration requirements, to provide an option for electronic submittal of the required application and annual report form and to provide clarification to current rule language.
Published on: 8988037. Significant amendments were made to this Chapter in January of 2010. These changes primarily involved registration requirements for smaller facilities that process yard trash and organic material. This next round of amendments are intended to update the requirements for permitting facilities that compost municipal solid waste, as well as the requirements and criteria for testing and use of processed materials. The Chapter will also be amended to address facilities that anaerobically digest solid waste.
Published on: 7892034. The Department is proposing to amend Chapter 62-709, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), which contains regulations for processing yard trash and for composting solid waste. This rule was last amended October 22, 2000 to allow for registrations rather than individual solid waste permits for processing of yard trash, and there were technical changes that needed to be made. In addition, the organics recycling industry requested the Department expand the variety of feedstocks that a facility can process while still qualifying for a registration due to the success of the yard trash processing facility registration provision in encouraging/promoting recycling of yard trash. There is also a need to provide a less burdensome process to the permitting process for short-term, size-restricted pilot and research project focused on recycling organic solid wastes.
Published on: 7635178. The proposed rule amendments address the processing of yard trash and create new simplified requirements for composting of certain types of solid waste.
