The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency proposed amendments to Minnesota Rules 7035.0805, Renovation and Demolition Solid Waste. The rules require persons conducting demolition or renovation activities at structures to remove materials that are prohibited by law from disposal in solid waste or are generally not allowed to be accepted at unlined landfill facilities prior to commencing the demolition or renovation. The rule is intended to ensure that prohibited or unacceptable materials are removed before they are mixed in with the solid waste generated by the demolition or renovation activity. To assist the regulated community with compliance, the proposed amendment lists prohibited/unacceptable materials and items that should be removed prior to demolition or renovation. http://www.comm.media.state.mn.us/bookstore/stateregister/33_22.pdf pp. 969-74.
