§ 34-64. Determination of the amount of solid waste produced per week for nonresidential properties.

The county council shall be empowered to designate such agents and officers and other means as it deems appropriate to collect information concerning the amount of solid waste generated by non-residential properties. These officers and agents shall have the right, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, to inspect the books and records of entities providing solid waste collection services within the county to determine the amount of solid waste generated by the users of such services. These officers and agents will have the right to require property owners to file waste generations reports, verified under oath, and to conduct field surveys of premises to determine amounts of waste generated. The failure of any property owner to provide information reasonably requested by such officers or agents or his knowing provision of false information shall constitute a violation of this article and shall preclude that property owner from thereafter contesting the determination of the amount of waste generated on his property.
