§ 5-02 Rules of General Applicability.
RCNY § 5-02
The following provisions apply to all applicants and permittees or licensees, excepting only when otherwise indicated: (a) Each applicant who is an active customer shall produce each vehicle for which a permit or license is requested for inspection and/or measurement and/or weighing at a time and place to be named by the Commissioner's representative. Failure of an applicant to produce any vehicle at the time and place fixed by the Commissioner's representative shall be deemed an abandonment of the application for permit or license for the vehicle or vehicles not produced at the time fixed, unless and until the vehicle or vehicles are produced at such subsequent time as the Commissioner's representative shall fix and no application will be advanced by the Department for issuance of permit or license until the vehicle or vehicles have been produced for the above purposes at the time and place fixed by the Commissioner's representative.
(b)After issuance of a permit or license, each permittee or licensee who is an active customer shall produce each vehicle for re-inspection and/or re-measurement and/or re-weighing at a place and time designated by the Commissioner's representative. Any vehicle that is not produced by such permittee or licensee for re-inspection and/or re-measurement and/or re-weighing shall not be allowed to dispose of materials at any facility.
(c)When upon re-inspection and/or re-measurement and/or re-weighing a vehicle that is owned by a permittee or licensee who is an active customer is found then by the Commissioner's representative not to be in compliance with these Rules and Regulations the permit or license for such vehicles may be suspended until remedial action by the permittee or licensee places the vehicle again in full compliance with these Rules and Regulations, or the Commissioner's representative may fix a time within which the permittee or licensee may place the vehicle in compliance with these Regulations. In the latter case, the permittee or licensee shall produce the vehicle for re-inspection and/or re-measurement and/or re-weighing at the expiration of the time allowed at the place designated by the Commissioner's representative. If the permit or license was suspended pending compliance, the permittee or licensee shall notify the Commissioner's representative when he deems the vehicle in compliance with these Rules and Regulations and thereupon the permittee or licensee shall produce the vehicle at the time and place designated by the Commissioner's representative for re-inspection and/or re-measurement and/or re-weighing. During any such time that a permit or license for a vehicle is suspended, such vehicle shall not be allowed to dispose of material at any facility.
