Surety bond requirement for tire collectors

This bill requires tire collectors who need a permit under Minnesota law to maintain a $150,000 surety bond before receiving or renewing their permit. The bond, held by the state commissioner, ensures tire collectors comply with existing waste management rules (sections 115A.90-115A.914) and provides financial recourse if they fail to meet requirements. The bond must remain active until canceled with 30 days' written notice to both the collector and the commissioner. It directly affects businesses collecting tires that operate under a state permit, ensuring accountability for environmental and public safety standards.
