Glasgow Earth and Rock from Excavation ordinance (§ 230.170)

Chapter 230: Solid Waste

In short: No permit is needed to remove, haul or dispose of earth and rock from grading or excavation, but it must travel in tight vehicles, trucks or containers built and kept so none spills onto public rights-of-way.

Our plain-English summary, not the official text or legal advice. The ordinance below is what counts.

Permits shall not be required for the removal, hauling or disposal of earth and rock material from grading or excavation activities, however, all such material shall be conveyed in tight vehicles, trucks or receptacles, so constructed and maintained that none of the material being transported shall spill upon the public rights-of-way.
