Generators or other approved entities may opt to self-haul, as defined, their own discarded materials to a County resource management facility, with the express and prior written permission of the Director, provided that their own vehicle is used and the discarded materials are generated in or on their own premises. Permission from the Director to use an alternative facility shall be conditioned on the County receiving satisfactory documentation of the proper management of discarded materials from those premises.

Self-haulers must properly separate all covered materials and deposit materials in appropriate containers or designated areas at the County resource management facility, and must follow all other applicable rules and regulations.

Such records are subject to inspection by the County and shall be retained for the period of time specified in the written exemption approval.
