1, 2021, states, in part: "Site personnel shall screen incoming loads weekly at a rate of no less than five
percent of the average daily waste tonnage reported in the site's annual report for the previous
year ... Waste screening and rejected wastes shall be recorded in writing, and the records shall be kept on
site for no less than five years and shall be made available to the Division during a site inspection or upon
request." Please ensure sufficient waste screenings are being conducted to satisfy the five percent of the
average daily tonnage rate requirement.
