Solicitation Profile
The NYSDEC provides funding to reimburse up to 50% of the costs of municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) collection programs. Applications are accepted during the months of January and February of each calendar year for the previous calendar year operating period.

Household hazardous wastes are materials found in household waste that would be regulated as hazardous waste if they were generated at a business or industry. Examples of HHW include pesticides, automotive fluids, home hobby chemicals, and compact fluorescent bulbs.

A HHW collection event receives HHW from residents. HHW is properly packaged, and shipped to appropriate management facilities. An HHW event sponsor-municipality must submit an application for a 6 NYCRR Part 362-4 registration to the appropriate DEC regional office and must receive DEC’s written approval prior to the HHW collection. The program sponsor must notify the DEC regional office at least 30 days before HHW collection is initiated. Permitted HHW collection and storage facilities may receive HHW from residents on a regular basis. These facilities must receive a Part 362-4 permit from the DEC before construction or operation may begin.
