The summary is adequate for relatively small projects such as crushing the material from a driveway at a single family residence. Individuals or businesses contemplating larger projects should consult the regulations. This is a paraphrase of the major requirements for on-site crushing. When the following conditions are observed, the ABC rubble may be crushed without obtaining any permit or other approval under Solid Waste Regulations. Good management practices are used and no public nuisance is created.
All rubble is from the site where the rubble is being crushed.
The rubble is processed so the maximum length of the largest dimension of any piece of rubble is less than six inches. At least 30 days prior to crushing the rubble the Department and the local board of health must be notified. The notification may be made on the form attached to this Information Sheet. ABC rubble that has been crushed in accordance with the above conditions is not a solid waste. Such crushed rubble may be used as a substitute for conventional materials.
