The application shall be accompanied by a certificate of public liability insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000. Upon approval of such application by the Director of Health or his authorized, agent, the Director of Health shall issue a license to the applicant.

Each private collector using the facilities of the Town Transfer Station for disposing of refuse collected by such private collector within the Town under the provisions of this chapter shall pay to the Board of Selectmen, for the use of the Town, a tipping fee on each ton of refuse delivered by such private collector to the Town Transfer Station. The amount of such fee and the method of payment shall be determined by the Board of Selectmen and published at least once. The Town may require a cash or surety bond from any private collector not paying the tipping fee upon delivery of the refuse.
In the event that there shall be a violation by a licensee under this article of any provision of this chapter or if it shall be evident that the provisions of this chapter cannot be complied with by a licensee, the Director of Health or his authorized agent may recommend to the Board of Selectmen that the license of such licensee be revoked or not be renewed. The Board of Selectmen shall hold a hearing thereon and thereafter, for cause shown, may revoke or refuse to renew such license.
