Rule 567-211.1 - Purpose

The purpose of this program is to reduce the amount of hazardous materials disposed of in Iowa's sanitary landfills, thereby protecting groundwater resources, the health and safety of Iowa citizens, and the environment.

The costs and accessibility of hazardous materials management can be improved by the establishment and maintenance of a system of regional collection centers (RCCs) and satellite facilities for the safe and proper management of household hazardous materials and hazardous materials from very small quantity generators (VSQGs). Therefore, the department may provide financial assistance for costs associated with establishing or improving RCCs and satellite facilities, when such funding is available. The department may also provide financial assistance for ongoing collection and disposal activities which result in eligible pounds, when such funding is available.
