The use of waste tires is allowed as long as it does not constitute a nuisance. However, any burial or partial burial of a waste tire bale, tire shreds, whole tires or parts thereof, requires a permit be issued by the Board of Minerals and Environment in accordance with this article. No solid waste permit is required for the burial of tire shreds used in the construction of an on-site wastewater treatment system if the installation is approved and constructed in accordance with chapter 74:53:01 and § 74:27:22:03. A waste tire bale consists of any whole or cut waste tires that are compacted or mechanically formed into a bale and bound with wire or other similar materials. Nothing in this section prohibits a farmer or rancher from burying his own waste tires on his own property or utilizing his own waste tires for agricultural purposes if the provisions of 34A-6-1.4 are met. Uses of waste tires for structural or construction purposes are subject to the requirements of § 74:27:22:03.
