6. That the landfill tipping fee exemptions BE IDENTIFIED through the 2013 operating budget and onwards in a transparent manner.
PURPOSE .
• Establish new or revised policy, by-law or service standard
The purpose of this report is to seek approval for the updated landfill tipping fee exemption
process and unlimited curbside recycling and organics (Green Bin) collection, on a request
basis only for eligible charities.

PW 61-2012 June 5, 2012
BUSINESS IMPLICATIONS
The Region currently exempts approved charities from landfill tipping fees. ln 2011, the
cost of these exemptions totaled $153,262 at Regional landfills and $6,837 at the Walker
Environmental Drop-off. lt is anticipated that an updated approval process and criteria for
landfill tipping fee exemptions for eligible charities will result in an annual incremental loss
in tipping fee revenue of approximately $12,340 to the Region.
Based on 398 eligible organizations and the cost of curbside collection of $101 per stop,
the upset limit to provide unlimited recycling and organics (Green Bin) to registered
charities would be approximately $40,198 (2012 price, excluding HST). However, it is
estimated that only a subset of eligible charities would need to request this service,
considering the inquiries received to date.
Given a mid-year implementation date for the updated tipping fee exemption and the
limited requests anticipated for the curbside exemption, the projected cost in 2012 of
recommendations included in this report can be accommodated within the approved 2012
Budget. Funds that were budgeted for the Industrial, Commercial and Institutional (IC&l)
clear bag pilot, which was not approved as per report PW 47-2012, would be applied to _
the cost of the exemptions. The full annual cost of the exemptions will be included in the
2013 operating budget.
REPORT
Staff reviewed the Region’s current charity tipping fee exemption process and investigated
potential curbside exemption options based on requests made by charities. The following
three options were considered:
1. Continue to provide landfill tipping fee exemptions for eligible charities with a
primary function of accepting goods for reuse for raising funds or donations to
assist others, subject to the completion and approval of a "LandHl| Tipping Fee
Exemption Application".
2. Allow charities outside the Designated Business Areas (DBAs) to place unlimited
amounts of recycling and organics (Green Bin) to the curb for collection on a
request basis only.
3. Allow charities outside DBAs and using curbside garbage collection to purchase garbage tags and place unlimited amounts of recycling and organics (Green Bin) to
the curb for collection on a request basis only.
ln each option, the organization must be a registered as a charity with the Canadian
Revenue Agency (CRA).
Only those registered charities outside DBAs were considered for Options 2 and 3 as there are additional or enhanced senrices for lC&l properties in DBAs.

PW 61-2012 June 5, 2012
The costs and advantages/disadvantages associated with each option are outlined in
Appendix 2.
Policies in Other Jurisdictions A sunrey of 14 municipalities was conducted to determine their policies with regards to garbage tags, recycling/organics collection and Iandtill tipping fee exemptions and other
waste disposal or diversion subsidies for charities. The sunrey results are found in
Appendix 3.
Recommended Options Based on the practices in other jurisdictions, costs and advantages/disadvantages
associated with the three options outlined above, staff recommend implementing both
Options 1 and 2. Option 3 is not recommended.
Option 1- Landfill Tipping Fee Exemptions
Option 1 is to continue to provide landfill tipping fee exemptions for registered charities that
have a primary function of accepting goods for reuse for raising funds or donation to assist
others. This would be subject to the completion and approval of a "LandfilI Tipping Fee
Exemption Application". Staff have updated the eligibility requirements and prepared
terms and conditions for landfill tipping fee exemptions for registered charities. The
eligibility requirements and terms and conditions are found in Appendix 1.
The Region already provides exemptions for approved charities at the Region’s landfill
sites or Walker Environmental Drop—off Depot. An excerpt from PWA 206-2000 is found in Appendix 4 and explains the current exemption in further detail.
There are currently 35 organizations approved to receive landfill tipping fee exemptions. In
2011, 28 of these organizations brought in 1,805 tonnes of waste to Regional landfills and
the Walker facility. A list of the current organizations exempt from tipping fees and tonnages brought into the above sites in 2010 and 2011 is found in Appendix 5.
Organizations that currently have landfill tipping fee exemptions, but do not meet the
eligibility requirements set out in Appendix, 1 will be grandfathered in.
Special clean-ups organized by community groups or other organizations will be handled
based on the current practice, as per Appendix 6
Option 2 - Unlimited Curbside Recycling and Organics (Green Bin) Collection
Option 2 allows registered charities outside the DBA to place unlimited amounts of recycling and organics (Green Bin) to the curb for collection, on a request basis. The
charity sector currently receives the same base collection sen/ice as |C&l properties. The
current senrices and proposed changes are listed in Appendix 7.
A small subset of properties will likely request the proposed unlimited curbside recycling and organics collection service based on the inquiries received to date.

PW 61-2012 June 5, 2012
The diversion program is made more convenient under this option and other material can be directed to the landfill site by those charities eligible for the tipping fee exemptions.
Waste Management Planning Steering Committee (WMPSC) Input
On April 30, 2012, WMPSC received a report parallel to PW 61-2012 and supported the report recommendations. In addition, WMPSC passed a motion that the following recommendation be added:
‘That landfill tipping fee exemptions are identified through the 2013 operating budget
and onwards in a transparent manner.’

Appendix 1
Niagara Region Registered Charity Landfill Tipping Fee Exemptions Guidelines
The Niagara Region currently provides landfill tipping fee exemptions to eligible registered charities in Niagara Region. These guidelines outline the eligibility requirements, approval process, non—e|igib|e materials and roles and
responsibilities of the Region and registered charities receiving a landfill tipping fee exemption. Revisions to these guidelines may be undertaken by Niagara Region, on an as needed basis, to maintain the integrity and intent of the landfill tipping fee exemptions.
Eligibility Requirements
Eligible charities must:
a) Have a primary function of accepting goods for reuse for the purpose of raising funds or donation to assist others in the community; and
b) Be registered as a ‘charity’ with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
Request Submission Requirements
Registered charities, seeking a landfill tipping fee exemption, must submit a
completed ‘LandfiI| Tipping Fee Exemption App|ication’, outlining the activities undertaken in the Region for the benefit of others. The application must contain the following information:
a) Organization name, a description of the organization, the programs
operated in Niagara Region, the location and staffing of their facility (or facilities).
b) Contact name, number and email address. This person will act as the
liaison between the Region and the organization.
c) Their CRA registration number. The registration number will be verified with CRA using their on-line search tool. lf the registration number cannot be found, a copy of their declaration by the Canada Revenue Agency as a
charity will be required.
d) A description of the type and estimated quantity of tonnes (or kilograms) of materials to be disposed of on an annual basis.
e) A description of the organization’s diversion programs and processes in place to ensure materials are properly sorted as per the Region’s Solid
Waste By-Law, and to ensure only non-recyclable materials are disposed of in the landfill at no charge.
1 of4
f) Table listing the type of materials received for reuse or diversion (e.g.
reusable goods, textiles, tires, electronics, etc.) and weight by each material category for the previous calendar year (January 1 to December 31). This data is needed for submission to Waste Diversion Ontario to calculate the Region’s annual residential waste diversion rate.
g) Notwithstanding the above, Niagara Region, may, from time to time, request additional information in support of the application.
Audit Requirements
Registered charities requesting landfill tipping fee exemptions may be subject to periodic audit of material being brought in the Region’s landfills or Walker’s Drop-
off Depot to ensure only non—recyclab|e material is being disposed of.
Landfill Tipping Fee Exemption Approval (or Denial)
Niagara Region will review all requests for landfill tipping fee exemptions and determine whether the registered charity is eligible for the exemption.
The Associate Director of Waste Disposal Operations will notify registered
charities seeking landfill tipping fee exemptions, in writing, whether their request
has been approved or denied. Organizations that receive approval will be directed to a Regional Landfill unless othewvise noted in the letter of approval that the organization can use Walker’s Drop-off Depot.
For non profit organizations receiving approval, these guidelines for tipping fee exemptions will be sent and the letter, when co-signed and returned to the Associate Director of Waste Disposal Operations, will form the basis of the agreement for eligibility for the landfill tipping fee exemption.
Registered charities denied approval for a landfill tipping fee exemption, may reapply for consideration once the noted reasons for denial have been addressed.
Landfill Tipping Fee Exemption Renewal
All registered charities must reapply every year to retain their exemption from landfill tipping fees. The Region will send a reminder letter to each approved registered charity, prior to the expiry of the exemption.
Re-submission should be directed to the Associate Director of Waste Disposal Operations at least two (2) months prior to the expiration of their exemption to avoid delays in re—approva|.
Annual renewal is not guaranteed.
2 of4
Exemption Termination
Niagara Region reserves the right to cancel the exemption to a registered charity

separated from waste and it is disposed of with garbage or unacceptable material is brought into the Region’s landfill or Wa|ker’s Drop-off Depot.
Notice will be given one (1) month ahead of termination to the exemption. lf
termination is a result of contravening the Region’s Solid Waste By-Law, recyclable material not being separated from waste and being disposed of with
garbage or disposing of unacceptable material, the organization will be given
time to rectify any issues. lf any issues are not rectified in a timely manner the exemption will be terminated with a final notice letter.
Non-Eligible Materials
Landfill tipping fee exemptions will not apply if garbage is not properly separated
from recyclable material as per the Region’s Solid Waste By-Law. This is to

Option Costs and Associated Advantages and Disadvantages
Part A - Option Costs
1) Provide landfill tipping fee exemptions for eligible $6,656 (excluding HST) for charities that have a primary function of accepting material disposed of at
goods for reuse for the purpose of raising funds or Walker’s and $165,600 in
donation to assist others, subject to the completion lost revenue from landfill
and approval of a "LandfiI| Tipping Fee Exemption tipping fees in 2012 Application".
2) Allow charities outside the DBA to place unlimited $40,198 (excluding HST) amounts of recycling and organics (Green Bins) to the per year
curb for collection on a request basis only.
3) Allow charities outside the DBA and using curbside $69,600 (excluding HST) garbage collection to purchase garbage tags and per year
place unlimited amounts of recycling and organics (Green Bin) to the curb for collection on a request
basis only.
In each option, charity must be registered as a charity with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
The price for Options 2 and 3 is based on $101 and $175 per stop per year (2012 price, excluding HST and annual adjustments), respectively, provided by the Region’s collection contractor, Emterra Environmental.
Part B - Advantages and Disadvantages
Option 1 - Provide landfill tipping fee exemptions for eligible charities that have a
primary function of accepting goods for reuse for the purpose of raising funds or donation to assist others, subject to the completion and approval of a "LandfilI Tipping
I
Fee Exemption AppIication".
Advantages
• Allows eligible charities to cost effectively dispose of large items, non—recyclable
construction and renovation material and other non—divertib|e materials which are
received as part of their primary business function. • Provides an outlet for materials that are not part of the curbside collection program. • lt is a continuation of an existing practice with the addition of a more formal
application process, eligibility requirements and terms and conditions for landfill tipping fee exemptions.
1 of 3
Disadvantages
• The potential for an incremental increase in the amount of tonnages brought into the Region’s landfills and cost to the Region for waste brought into the Walker
facility from registered charities.
• Additional administrative time for the maintenance of a database with charities
registered with the Canada Revenue Agency and that are eligible for this
exemption, in addition to the application form review and approval process.
Option 2 - Allow charities outside the DBA to place unlimited amounts of recycling and organics (Green Bins) to the curb for collection
Advantages
• Aligns with the principle of maximizing diversion and maximizes the associated
benefits of diversion e.g. the conservation of resources, etc.
• Reinforces and promotes 3Rs behaviour amongst staff and volunteers in the registered charities in a manner that is consistent with behavior in the home.
• There is a potential to reduce costs to the charities in the case of organizations that
cannot comply with the current recycling and/or organics limits and must arrange
for private collection services.
• Offers additional diversion collection services to those organizations that are
benefiting residents of Niagara and beyond. • There is a potential to reduce the amount of garbage placed at the curb if allowed
unlimited recycling and organics (Green Bin).
Disadvantages
• The additional collection costs associated with allowing unlimited recycling and organics (Green Bin) collection to registered charities. Region has no baseline data
for the number of charities using the Region’s curbside collection programs and potential impact of this additional service, however based on the number of inquiries received, it is likely that the majority of organizations are managing within
the current collection services/limits.
• Additional administrative time for the maintenance of a database with charities
registered with the Canada Revenue Agency that are eligible to place unlimited amounts of recycling and organics (Green Bin) to the curb.
• There is potential for the perception of unfairness and lack of service consistency
across the ICI sector.
Option 3 - Allow charities outside the DBA and using curbside garbage collection to purchase garbage tags and place unlimited amounts of recycling and organics (Green
Bin) to the curb for collection.
2 of 3
Advantages
• Allows registered charities to conveniently and cost effectively dispose of additional
garbage and recycling and organics (Green Bins) above the current limit. • See Option 2 for advantages related to unlimited recycling/organics collection
service.
Disadvantages
• The additional collection costs associated with extending the use of garbage tags and unlimited recycling and organics (Green Bin) collection to registered charities.
• Additional administrative time for the maintenance of a database with charities
registered with the Canada Revenue Agency that are eligible to purchase garbage tags and place unlimited amount of recycling and organics (Green Bin) to the curb.
• Region’s collection contractor will require regular updates to the list of eligible
charities to determine if garbage tags and unlimited amount of recycling and organics (Green Bin) are allowed at a particular property.
• Region has no baseline data for the number of charities using the Region’s curbside collection programs and potential impact of this additional service.
• There is potential for the perception of unfairness and lack of service consistency across the ICI sector.
• A potential for decreased use of recycling/organics programs if properties can
purchase garbage tags. • The Region is mandated by the province to provide curbside waste collection
services to the residential sector; however, the Region has extended curbside
waste collection services to small to medium ICI properties that can stay within the limits. By allowing the purchase of garbage tags, larger ICI properties that would be better sen/ed by private companies (i.e. front end bin collection) could start to use the curbside service.

Excerpt from PWA 206-2000 — Tipping Fees for Residential Self-Hauled Waste, Commercial Haulers, Contractors and Businesses
The most recent description of the exemption process is found in the following excerpt from PWA 206-2000 dated September 26, 2000, page 4 under Issues that Were Addresses in Developing the Proposed Tipping Fees:
Community Organizations
There are several non—profit organizations within the Region of Niagara. Based on previous usage at local landfill sites, it was determined that only certain non-profit
organizations require access to the sites. Therefore, it is recommended that non-profit community organizations with a volunteer base and who accept goods for the purpose of raising funds or assisting others in the community will be exempt from landfill tipping fees, pending the completion and approval of a "Landfi|l Tipping Fee Exemption App|ication".
Application forms will be made available at Regional Headquarters, Public Works Department. The exemption will be valid for one year and each organization would have to renew the application after one year. These organizations could include, but are not limited to, Habitat for Humanity, Goodwill, and Salvation Army.
