Summary

This bill would require that any commercial waste hauler with a contract to operate in one of the city’s commercial waste zones does not merge with, acquire, or otherwise combine with another commercial waste hauler in a manner that would give that waste hauler more than 15 commercial waste zones in which to operate. Where commercial waste haulers violate this requirement, the Sanitation Department (DSNY) could either terminate the waste hauler’s contract with the city, or add one additional waste hauler to each affected commercial waste zone. This law would not apply to any contracts currently in force between DSNY and any commercial waste hauler.
