[Adopted 9-30-1992 by L.L. No. 7-1992]
The Board of Trustees of the Incorporated Village
of Manorhaven hereby declares its intent to comply with the mandate
of § 120-aa of the General Municipal Law by adopting a local
law to require the source separation and segregation of recyclable
or reusable materials from all other garbage or solid waste.
All solid waste which has been left for collection
or which is delivered by the generator of such waste to a solid waste
management facility shall be separated into recyclable or reusable
components for which economic markets for alternate uses exist, consistent
with this article and the legislative determination of the municipality,
if any, which, by contract or law, possesses the authority to regulate
such matters in the village. Components herein include, without limitation,
paper, glass, metals, plastics and garden and yard waste. "Economic
markets" refers to instances in which the full avoided cost of proper
collection, transportation and disposal of source-separated materials
is equal to or greater than the cost of collection, transportation
and sale of said material less the amount received from the sale of
said material.
