Latest version.
  • Applicants and permit holders shall be required to provide a notice of all criminal, civil and administrative convictions, judgments or penalties imposed on them for violations of Federal, State or local laws related to unlawful storing or dumping of hazardous or non-hazardous wastes or transporting, handling, generating or storing of hazardous materials. The Director may reject an application or suspend or revoke a permit, if the Director finds that on the basis of the number, seriousness or recentness of the convictions, judgments or penalties, there is reason to believe that the applicant or permit holder cannot be trusted to comply with this article and/or the Code or the applicant or permit holder poses a threat to the public health, safety or welfare. Failure by an applicant or a permit holder to report any convictions, judgments or penalties shall be grounds for suspension and/or revocation of the permit. (Added Ord. 2003-100, § 2, eff. 1-18-04).
