§ 11-135. Litter control.

(a)

All construction and demolition contractors, owners or agents, shall provide on-site control measures to prevent wind-driven scattering of such materials if the materials are otherwise not properly disposed of on a daily basis. All litter, tar paper, packaging and crating materials and similar materials shall be removed within 30 days after the completion of the construction or demolition.

(b)

It shall be the duty of each operator, owner, lessee or agent of any business, industry, institution, apartment, hotel, condominium or other complex, public or private, profit or nonprofit, to keep the adjacent and surrounding areas clean of wind-driven or animal carried litter generated from such establishment. These areas include public property, roads, rights-of-way, grounds, parking lots, loading and unloading areas and vacant lots owned or leased by such establishments.

(c)

It is a violation of the division for any private property owner, tenant, occupant, lessee or agent to grant permission to any person to dispose of litter on his property in any manner except in permitted disposal sites, or as authorized by the rules of the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation.
