§ 13:1e-48.
a. Any county within which a solid waste facility is located pursuant to an adopted
and approved district solid waste management plan, which facility is a designated
recipient of regulated medical waste pursuant to an interdistrict or intradistrict
waste flow order issued by the Board of Public Utilities, in conjunction with the
Department of Environmental Protection, may be entitled to an annual economic benefit
in an amount established by agreement with the owner or operator of the solid waste
facility. The governing body of the relevant county may negotiate with the owner or operator
of the solid waste facility for the payment of an annual economic benefit. b. If the parties reach an agreement on the amount of an annual economic benefit,
the owner or operator of the solid waste facility shall petition the board for an
adjustment in its disposal tariff. The petition shall be accompanied by a copy of the agreement which reflects the
proposed annual payments and shall be filed with the board prior to its implementation. The board, within 60 days of the receipt of the petition, shall issue an appropriate
order that these payments shall be paid by the users of the facility as an automatic
surcharge on any tariff filed with, and recorded by, the board for the regulated medical
waste disposal operations of the facility. The surcharge shall be calculated and itemized in all appropriate tariffs on a per
ton basis. In the event that any regulated medical waste is measured, upon acceptance for disposal,
by other than tons, the surcharge shall be calculated and itemized by using the equivalents
thereof as shall be determined by the board. c. In issuing any order required by this section, the Board of Public Utilities shall
be exempt from the provisions of R.S. 48:2-21 .
