§ 109.1-2-4. Recycling Report Required.

The owners or their designees of all non-residential properties that meet or exceed the size thresholds defined in the County's Recycling Program Requirements, and companies that collect or manage MSW generated in Fairfax County, shall annually report, by March 1 for the previous calendar year, such nonproprietary information regarding waste generation, waste management, and recycling as is necessary to facilitate County compliance with regulations adopted pursuant to the Virginia Code, Section 10.1-1411. Quantities and material types are considered nonproprietary, absent a detailed explanation.

All reports required by this section shall be based on volume or weight of each material recycled, provided that where such measurements cannot be accurately determined, the report may be based on carefully estimated data. Where estimates are submitted, they must contain sufficient detail to reasonably describe how the estimate was prepared, including but not limited to such data as container volume, frequency of collection, percent full when collected, and the type of material collected for recycling.

When information is withheld as proprietary, the report shall specify the nature of the information withheld and the basis for its proprietary determination. Annual recycling reports shall be submitted on a standardized form to be provided by the Director, and shall be signed by a responsible company official. Said reports shall include but not be limited to the name and address of the reporting entity, period of time covered by the report, and type and weight/volume of each material reported. Supporting documentation used in preparation of the report shall be retained for audit and clarification of reported data for a period of two years following submissions of said report. (13-15-109.1.)
