[Adopted 7-24-1973 by L.L. No. 4-1973]
It has come to the attention of the Albany County Environmental
Council and to the Albany County Legislature that the disposition
of waste oil in the County of Albany is a potential danger not only
to the waters, lands and wildlife of Albany County, but also to the
Albany County sewerage system and other sewerage systems within our
County. It is deemed in the best interest of the health, safety and
environment of the people of Albany County that the disposition of
waste oil be controlled, and that the recycling of waste oil be encouraged.
As used in this article, the following terms shall have the
meanings indicated:
Oil shall be deemed waste oil if it is used automotive oils,
used lubricating oils, contaminated fuel oils or used industrial oils.
The disposal of waste oil defined in § 146-2 of this article on the lands, or in the waters, or in the various sewer systems of the County of Albany is prohibited, except those disposals of waste oil made with the permission of the Albany County Health Department or the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
Any person, partnership or corporation, or any officer, employee
or agent thereof, who or which shall violate any provision of this
article shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof
shall be subject to punishment by a fine of not more than $1,000,
or by imprisonment for a period not exceeding six months, or by both
such fine and imprisonment.
This article shall take effect on the 20th day after it shall
have been adopted, and certified copies thereon have been filed as
provided by Municipal Home Rule Law § 27.
