Availability of Grants for the Remediation of Waste Tire Piles in Pennsylvania Under the Waste Tire Recycling Act (Act 190 of 1996)

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) hereby announces the availability of grants under the Waste Tire Recycling Act (Act 190) for fiscal year 98/99 for the remediation of waste tire piles in Pennsylvania. Act 190 provides a grant program, tax credits and enforcement provisions to reduce the stockpiles of waste tires. The Waste Tire Pile Remediation Grant Program is funded through the Used Tire Pile Remediation Restricted Account, which may receive up to $1 million annually from the Recycling Fund established by Act 101, the Municipal Waste Planning, Recycling and Waste Reduction Act. Grants totaling $1 million may be awarded annually from this account.

   To be considered for a grant, an applicant: 1) must propose to remediate a waste tire pile that is on the Department's list of priority waste tire piles (copies of this list are available from the Division of Municipal and Residual Waste, (717) 787-7381; or may be obtained electronically by means of the Department's Internet site on the world wide web at: http://www.dep.state.pa.us under the Municipal and Residual Waste page; 2) must not have contributed, in any manner, to the creation of a noncompliant waste tire pile; and 3) must have an identifiable end-use for the waste tires to be remediated.

   Grant funds are intended to be used for activities directly related to the remediation of priority waste tire sites (such as employe wages, operation of equipment, transportation, processing costs, and the like). Grants may not be used for the purchase of equipment and grant recipients shall use funds only for those activities approved by the Department.

   All applicants must complete and submit an official two-part application for each proposed tire pile remediation. The Waste Tire Remediation Grant Part A and B Applications include all the materials and instructions necessary for applying for a grant. Copies of these documents are available by contacting the Division of Municipal and Residual Waste at (717) 787-7381 or may be obtained electronically from the Department Internet site on the world wide web at: http://www.dep.state.pa.us.
