Rule 3745-501-05 | Licensing requirements.
(A) No person shall operate or maintain a solid waste facility, a construction and demolition debris facility, or a construction and demolition debris processing facility without a separate license for each facility as required by Chapter 3714. or 3734. of the Revised Code and the rules adopted thereunder. The requirement to obtain a separate license does not apply to a construction and demolition debris facility and a co-located processing facility operating or proposing to operate under a single license.
[Comment: Failure to obtain a renewal license is grounds for closure.]
(B) Unless otherwise excluded by paragraph (C) of this rule, no person shall operate an infectious waste treatment facility without an infectious waste treatment facility license.

Treatment of the wastes shall occur utilizing methods, techniques, and practices established by rules adopted under division (C)(1) or (C)(3) of section 3734.021 of the Revised Code. The owner or operator of an infectious waste facility operating in accordance with this paragraph may accept infectious waste generated by small quantity generators for treatment.
