## Sec. 21-112. Approved recycling facilities and solid waste acceptance facilities

Prince George's County, Md., Code § 21-112 (2026)

(a) The Department of the Environment may designate any recycling facility or solid waste acceptance facility that is owned or operated by the County or by a contractor of the County pursuant to a solid waste or recycling contract as a County recycling facility or a County solid waste acceptance facility.

(b) The Department of the Environment may designate any recycling facility or solid waste acceptance facility that is not owned or operated by the County or by a contractor of the County pursuant to a solid waste or recycling contract as a private recycling facility or private solid waste acceptance facility. The designation of any private recycling facility or private solid waste acceptance facility must be consistent with any restrictions contained in any trust agreement or solid waste or recycling contract entered into by the County pursuant to Section 21-137.04 or 21-137.06 and the County's obligations under the County's comprehensive solid waste management plan adopted in accordance with Section 9-505 of the Environment Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland. Designation of a facility as a private recycling facility or private solid waste acceptance facility does not create a contractual or agency relationship between the owner, operator, or user of the facility and the County. The County by such designation assumes no liability or responsibility for the operations of the facility or injuries or damages arising from, or as a result of, the design, construction, operation, or use of the facility or designation of the facility as a private recycling facility or a private solid waste acceptance facility.
