SPECIAL NOTICES
Availablity of Grants to County and Municipal Governments for the Remediation of Waste Tire Piles The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) hereby announces the availability of grants for the remediation of waste tire piles. The Governor's 1997-98 budget includes $2 million dollars targeted specifically to county and municipal governments for the remediation of waste tire piles containing an estimated 5,000 or more waste tires.
In order to be considered for a grant, a county or municipality must: 1) propose to remediate a waste tire pile that has been verified by the Department regional office in your area 2) not have contributed, in any manner, to the creation of the tire pile, 3) must have an identifiable end-use for the remediated waste tires detailed in the application and 4) must have access to the waste tire pile site. Note that the Department will continue efforts to recover costs associated with noncompliant waste tire piles and take appropriate actions for sites in which individuals or organizations responsible for the creation of a waste tire pile have been identified.
Grant funds are intended to be used for activities directly related to the remediation of waste tire sites (such as employe wages, operation of equipment, transportation, processing costs, and the like). Grants may not be used for the purchase of equipment and grant recipients shall use funds only for those activities approved by the Department. In some circumstances, the Department may be able to work with applying counties and municipalities in cooperation with other State agencies to work out agreements concerning the possible lend-lease of State owned and operated equipment in order to expedite the remediation process and to reduce overall project costs.
All applicants must complete and submit an official application for each proposed tire pile remediation. The application includes all the materials and instructions necessary for applying for a grant.
