Solid Waste Facilities in the SWA region are governed by Title III
of the SWA Code. Title III authorizes a voluntary program for C&D facilities. With a sorting and recycling program for mixed C&D materials, facilities can be certified. Builders who are required to recycle by City or County ordinance can comply by sending mixed loads of C&D to these facilities. It is an easier way for builders to recycle if their job-site is too crowded for multiple bins or if they have other reasons why mixed recycling is preferable to source separating their wood, metal and cardboard.
Administrative Rule 2009-01 designates recyclables for extraction from mixed C&D debris by SWA-certified C&D sorting facilities.
Administrative Rule 2009-02 identifies source-separated recyclable materials that will be excluded from a SWA-certified C&D sorting facility's performance calculation.
