§ 10.20.360. Solid waste generator fees.

A.

In addition to tip fees otherwise due, every person collecting, hauling or disposing of any waste, other than construction and demolition waste disposed of at a class III or class IV disposal facility permitted by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, originating or produced in Davidson County shall pay to the metropolitan government a solid waste generator fee of six dollars per ton of such waste. Persons collecting, hauling or disposing of such waste shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of the fee; provided, however, that only one fee shall be owed on each ton of waste. The solid waste generator fee shall not be owed on recovered materials, yard waste or waste hauled, collected or disposed of directly by the metropolitan government or persons under contract with the metropolitan government to haul, collect or dispose of waste. The solid waste generator fee applicable to construction and demolition waste disposed of at a class III or class IV disposal facility permitted by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation shall be as specified in subsection B. of this section.

B.

In addition to tip fees otherwise due, any person collecting, hauling, receiving, processing or disposing of any construction and demolition waste in Davidson County shall, if and only if the disposal site is a class III or class IV disposal facility permitted by the Tennessee Department of Environmental Conservation, pay to the metropolitan government a solid waste generator fee equal to one dollar per cubic yard of construction and demolition waste accepted at such facility. The maximum capacity, in cubic yards, of every vehicle delivering a load of construction and demolition waste to a disposal site covered by this subsection shall be calculated, and the fee owed for that load shall be the product of that capacity and one dollar. Persons collecting, hauling, receiving, processing or disposing of such waste shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of the fee; provided, however, that only one fee shall be owed on each cubic yard of waste. The waste generator fee shall not be owed on recovered materials, yard waste or waste hauled, collected or disposed of directly by the metropolitan government or persons under contract with the metropolitan government to haul, collect or dispose of waste.
