The Department of Sanitation is issuing a rule that limits the size of receptacles containing solid waste that are set out for collection by the Department. Specifically, this rule limits the maximum size of such receptacles to fifty-five gallons. This rule will ensure that receptacles are of an acceptable size for the Department's sanitation workers to safely handle in the course of their collection duties. Violators will be subject to a fine for using an improper receptacle as set forth in Section 16-120 of the Administrative Code.
The New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) is proposing to create a new chapter that will include certain provisions of its existing penalty schedule, which is currently found in the rules of the Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH), in Title 48 of the Rules of the City of New York, and move those provisions into Title 16 of the Rules of the City of New York. DSNY also proposes to establish penalties for repeat violations of certain provisions as described in Local Law 75 of 2016. OATH is proposing a companion rule that repeals the DSNY Penalty Schedule from Title 48.
