incinerator ash. It shall not be permitted to and is forbidden to
deposit in such projects live garbage.
No person shall be permitted to deposit in any City landfill
project any thing or things other than clean fill, and he or she may
do so only after a permit therefor has been secured from the Commissioner

project shall be at the rate of $0.25 per cubic yard, which sum shall

Each person applying for a permit shall file with the Commissioner
of Public Works a policy of liability insurance with limits of not
less than $25,000/$50,000 covering injury to persons and not less
than $5,000 covering damage to property, covering each and every vehicle
engaged in the disposition of landfill, which policy shall be endorsed

claims for personal injury or property damage arising out of the issuance
of such permit. Each applicant shall also file with the Commissioner
of Public Works evidence, in the form of a certificate of insurance,
that proper workers' compensation insurance is in force and effect
covering each and every person employed by them in the operation of
the disposition of clean fill.
The vehicles to be used by any person desirous of disposing
