Many sweep the sawdust out the door, or leave it in the yard where workers are building decks or fences. Some, like Bruce Briscoe, let it pile up in their workshop. Briscoe said he couldn't afford to send his sawdust to a special landfill, which might cost up to several hundred dollars per drum. That way, it would still have to be collected, but could be sent to a lined landfill rather than a special landfill that takes only hazardous waste. Hinkley said it's also possible smaller generators of sawdust could be granted exemptions.
Details are a long ways from being worked out.
But if the sawdust is a concern, it needs to be properly managed. Post a message on the Community Forums.
