This article shall be known as the "Carneys Point Township Waste Separation, Recycling and Waste Disposal Ordinance."
The Carneys Point Township Committee of the Township of Carneys Point finds that it is in the public interest to require the separation of designated waste materials from trash, garbage and other waste products which are collected by Carneys Point Township and are disposed of in a solid waste landfill facility. Obvious environmental and cost benefits will be derived from practicing waste minimization, and its importance as part of a comprehensive solid waste management plan cannot be overestimated. Hence, the Carneys Point Township Committee encourages all residents, along with commercial and institutional solid waste generators, to reduce waste at the source, to reuse materials when practical and to recycle waste when possible.
The Carneys Point Township Committee also recognizes its obligation to establish a mandatory recycling program under the provisions of P.L. 1987, c. 102, as amended. In order to fulfill its obligations under state statute, to conserve recyclable materials for sale and reuse to the public benefit and to reduce the amount of solid waste to be disposed of in a sanitary landfill and thus to reduce the cost of disposal fees incurred by Carneys Point Township and its residents, the within chapter is hereby adopted and amended to comply with the provisions of the County Solid Waste Management Plan.

Designated recyclable material shall be placed separately at the curb in a manner and in such days and times as may be established by the Township of Carneys Point.
When municipal curbside collection is not provided for designated recyclable materials, as is the case for those recyclables generated by commercial and institutional entities, it shall be the obligation of the generator to arrange for the private collection and delivery of designated recyclable materials to a recycling facility or to deliver designated recyclable materials to a municipal recycling depot designated by the Township of Carneys Point.

All receptacles or dumpsters shall be maintained in a clean and safe manner.
Vegetative waste, such as limbs, branches, small trees and bushes, shall be cut in lengths not to exceed four feet and placed neatly at the curbline. Any exceptions to this length requirement must be approved by the Superintendent of the Township Streets and Roads Department.

These properties shall provide for separate recycling collection services for the contents of the recycling receptacles.
Every business, institution or industrial facility shall report on a quarterly basis to the Municipal Recycling Coordinator on such forms as may be prescribed, regarding recycling activities at their premises, including the amount and type of recycled material not placed curbside for municipal collection.

Locations documented on the application's site plan that provide for convenient recycling opportunities for all owners, tenants and occupants. The recycling area shall be of sufficient size, convenient location and contain other attributes (signage, lighting, fencing, etc.) as may be determined by the Municipal Recycling Coordinator.
Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy by the municipality of the Township of Carneys Point, the owner of any new multifamily housing or commercial, institutional or industrial development must supply a copy of a duly executed contract with a hauling company for the purposes of collection and recycling of source-separated designated recyclable materials for those locations or properties where the municipally does not otherwise provide the service.
For the purposes of this article, charitable organizations shall be considered as institutional uses and shall be subject to § 206-5.2 of this article.
The Township Committee is hereby authorized to promulgate, from time to time, additional rules and regulations relating to source separation, preparation, placement and collection of recyclable materials pursuant to the provisions of this program and article; provided, however, that such rules and regulations shall not be inconsistent with terms and provisions of this article and shall be approved by the governing body. Such rules and regulations shall be duly promulgated subsequent to publication so that the public has had notice hereof.
If any recyclable product is placed at curbside in a manner wherein said product is not easily visible to the collector, the container shall be marked in a clear and visible fashion by the occupant or owner of the property so as to indicate the contents of said receptacle.
It shall be the responsibility of the owner or occupant to properly segregate the uncollected waste for proper disposal and/or recycling. Allowing such unseparated solid waste and recyclables to accumulate at the curbside beyond 7:00 p.m. on the day of collection will be considered a violation of this article and the local sanitary code.
Once placed in the location identified by this article, or any rules or regulations promulgated pursuant to this article, no person, other than any personnel authorized by the municipality or the owner or occupant responsible for placement of the designated recyclable materials for collection, shall tamper with, collect, remove, or otherwise handle designated recyclable materials. Upon placement of such designated recyclable material, it shall become property of the municipality or its authorized agent. It shall be a violation of this article for any person not duly authorized to collect or pick up or cause to be collected or picked up any recyclable materials that are the property of the municipality as provided for above.
It shall be unlawful for solid waste collectors to collect solid waste that is mixed with or contains visible signs of designated recyclable materials.
