§ 5-06 Acceptance of Customers.
RCNY § 5-06
(a)Whenever a prospective or actual customer has been unable to obtain a licensee to remove his or her waste upon terms and conditions satisfactory to both the prospective or actual customer and licensee, the Commission may require a licensee collecting trade waste in or near the area in which the customer conducts business, to collect and remove such waste at a rate designated by the Commission.
(b)A licensee who has been ordered to serve a customer pursuant to subdivision (a) of this section may, within five days of such directive, object to the Commission, setting forth the reasons why such licensee should not be compelled to serve such customer, but must comply with any final order to serve. Failure to comply with such an order shall be a violation of this section.
(c)Upon the final implementation date for a particular commercial waste zone, licensees who are designated carters will not be subject to the requirements of this section in such zone. Licensees who operate in any zones that have not been implemented will continue to be subject to the requirements of this section. (Amended City Record 8/1/2024, eff. 8/31/2024)
