Title of bill
An act to amend the tax law, in relation to certain motor fuel and sales and compensating use taxes and the Rockland county solid waste management authority
Purpose
This bill grants the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority to continue to utilize section of the Tax Law for the purpose of hauling its Municipal Solid Waste.
Summary of provisions
Sections 1 - 2 would amend §§ 1102 and 1116 of the Tax Law to include the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority as a qualified entity operating under the set parameters of these sections and permit subcontractors who are transporting waste on behalf of the Rockland County Solid Waste Authority to utilize motor fuel stored at the Rockland County Solid Waste Authority Facility.
Section 3 effective date.
Justification
This bill was requested by the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority to insure that its hauler of Municipal Solid Waste can continue the practice of utilizing fuel that the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority purchased and is housing at its facility in Hillburn, NY. The Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority contracts with a hauler that takes its Municipal Solid Waste from Hillburn, NY to its garbage facility in Ontario County, NY. The contractors trucks fill up at the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority's facility for the trip to the facility and make it back without filling up again. The trucks are used exclusively for the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority's waste.
This legislation will ensure that the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority continues to provide quality recycling services to the residents of the Rockland County at reasonable rates. If this bill is not enacted the Rockland County Solid Waste Management Authority may incur additional charges of $400,000.00 in fiscal year 2009 and that number will increase to $1,000,000.00 in fiscal year 2010.
