An Act relative to the removal and disposal of waste oil

SD 185 requires businesses that handle waste oil - such as automobile service stations, marinas, and retail stores selling lubricating oil - to submit a disposal plan to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection before accepting waste oil for disposal. The plan must detail how waste oil will be collected, transported, and properly processed or disposed of, including specific disposal locations. Businesses that fail to provide this plan face civil penalties of up to $1,000 per violation. This law directly affects commercial entities that generate or handle waste oil within the Commonwealth.
