This chapter requires dumpsters and other refuse containers
that are outdoors or exposed to stormwater to be covered at all times
and prohibits the spilling, dumping, leaking, or otherwise discharge
of liquids, semiliquids or solids from the containers to the municipal
separate storm sewer system(s) operated by the Township of Middle
and/or the waters of the state so as to protect public health, safety
and welfare, and to prescribe penalties for the failure to comply.
For the purpose of this chapter, the following terms, phrases,
words, and their derivations shall have the meanings stated herein
unless their use in the text of this chapter clearly demonstrates
a different meaning. When not inconsistent with the context, words
used in the present tense include the future, words used in the plural
number include the singular number, and words used in the singular
number include the plural number. The word "shall" is always mandatory
and not merely directory.
A conveyance or system of conveyances (including roads with
drainage systems, municipal streets, catch basins, curbs, gutters,
ditches, man-made channels, or storm drains) that is owned or operated
by the Township of Middle, or other public body, and is designed and
used for collecting and conveying stormwater.
Any individual, corporation, company, partnership, firm,
association, or political subdivision of this state subject to municipal
jurisdiction.
A self-storage container that is delivered to and retrieved
from a property for long-term off-site or temporary on-site storage.
Portable storage on demand or PODS® is a familiar trade name for such containers. Portable storage containers
are containers placed on a property for the purpose of temporarily
storing materials, including any container, storage unit, shed-like
container or other portable structure used for the storage of personal
property of any kind and which is located for such purposes outside
an enclosed building other than an accessory building or shed complying
with all building codes and land use requirements. Not included in
this definition or governed by this chapter are "nonresidential trailers"
as defined and regulated by § 250-11 of the Code of the
Township of Middle.
Any waste container that a person controls whether owned,
leased, or operated, including dumpsters, trash cans, garbage pails,
and plastic trash bags.
Water resulting from precipitation (including rain and snow)
that runs off the land's surface, is transmitted to the subsurface,
is captured by separate storm sewers or other sewerage or drainage
facilities, or is conveyed by snow removal equipment.
The ocean and its estuaries, all springs, streams and bodies
of surface water or groundwater, whether natural or artificial, within
the boundaries of the State of New Jersey or subject to its jurisdiction.
