Waste Haulers
The Board of Public Utilities (BPU) Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) accepts waste for treatment at our facility.
Applications
The contractor will need to send an application to dispose of waste. The application process to dispose of waste at our facility takes approximately 1 to 2 days. If approved, the contractor will receive an acceptance letter from the BPU stating the amount of waste accepted per day, delivery hours and the current rate they will be charged per gallon.
How to qualify to dispose of waste at our WWTP:
- The contractor will be required to provide the WWTP with a copy of the current waste hauler permit from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and may be required to provide current laboratory analytical results of the waste.
- In certain cases, the Chief Operator may ask for a sample of the waste for testing at the treatment plant.
Contact the Chief Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator with the following information:
- Approximate amount of waste
- Estimated timeline for delivery of waste
