Any method, technique or process which is designed to change the physical, chemical or biological character or composition of sludge. "Treatment" includes spreading on fields and incineration.
No person or entity may transport, recycle, store, apply to land or treat any sludge in the Town of Winneconne that has been brought in from surrounding communities without a permit.
Any authorized officer, employee or representative of the Town of Winneconne may inspect imported materials for potential sludge and any records relating to imported products for the purpose of ascertaining compliance with the provisions of this article. No person may refuse access to any authorized officer, employee or authorized representative of the Town of Winneconne who requests access for purposes of inspection and who presents appropriate credentials. No person may obstruct, hamper, or interfere with an inspection.
