				  the CWSRF for the purpose of making low-interest loans for nonpoint source
				  water pollution control projects. Four separate set-asides are identified as
				  follows:
(1)
Onsite wastewater
				treatment and disposal systems set-aside.
The purpose of this
				set-aside is to assist homeowners to rehabilitate or improve existing onsite
				wastewater treatment and disposal systems.
(2)
Livestock water quality
				facilities set-aside.
The purpose of the set-aside is to assist owners
				of existing animal feeding operations to meet state and federal requirements or
				to prevent, minimize or eliminate water pollution. Projects may be selected
				using the rating and ranking process in 567-Chapter 91.
(3)
Local water protection projects
				set-aside.
The purpose of the set-aside is to assist local water
				protection projects that will provide water quality improvement or protection.
				Projects may be selected using the rating and ranking process in 567-Chapter
				91.
(4)
General nonpoint
				source project assistance set-aside.
The purpose of the set-aside is
				to assist general nonpoint source projects that will provide water quality
				improvements or water quality protection. This set-aside allows for funding of
				the water quality protection portion of nontraditional projects. Projects may
				be selected using the rating and ranking process in 567-Chapter 91.

Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 3, July 24, 2024
The department has jurisdiction over the management, dumping,
				  depositing, and disposal of solid waste by establishing standards for sanitary
				  disposal projects and by regulating solid waste through a system of general
				  rules and specific permits. The construction and operation of any sanitary
				  disposal project requires a specific permit from the department.
This chapter provides general definitions applicable to Title
				  VIII (solid waste management and disposal) of the commission's rules and
				  general conditions of solid waste disposal.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section
				  455B.304 and chapter
				  455D.

				  for the establishment and operation of an integrated solid waste management
				  system consistent with the waste management hierarchy under Iowa Code section
				  455B.301A and designed to meet the state's waste reduction and recycling goals.
				  Integrated systems and municipal solid waste sanitary disposal projects may be
				  established separately or through cooperative efforts, including Iowa Code
				  chapter 28E agreements as provided by law.
(1) To meet these responsibilities, cities
				and counties may execute, with public and private agencies, contracts, leases,
				or other necessary instruments, purchase land and do all things necessary not
				prohibited by law for the implementation of waste management programs,
				collection of solid waste, establishment and operation of municipal solid waste
				sanitary disposal projects, and general administration of the same.
(2) If a planning agency refuses any
				particular solid waste type for management or disposal, the planning agency
				must identify another municipal solid waste sanitary disposal project for that
				waste within the planning area. If no other municipal solid waste sanitary
				disposal project exists within the planning area, the planning agency must, in
				cooperation with the waste generator, establish or arrange for access to
				another municipal solid waste sanitary disposal project. Municipal solid waste
				sanitary disposal projects are required to maintain written approval from both
				the department and the planning agency in the planning area of origin in order
				to accept any Iowa-generated waste from outside the planning area.
(3) All cities and counties or Iowa Code
				chapter 28E agencies established for the purpose of managing solid waste or
				implementing integrated solid waste management systems, or both, on behalf of
				cities and counties shall demonstrate compliance with the provisions of this
				chapter by their participation in a comprehensive plan approved by the
