The prohibition herein shall not apply to garbage or refuse processed at a materials recovery facility operated pursuant to a permit issued by the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality.

(B) Any garbage/refuse collector, as defined in § 50.01, failing to dispose of the garbage, refuse, yard waste, dead animals and contents of privy vaults or cesspools at the disposal sites so designated by the City shall be subject to having the collector’s license revoked.

(C) The operator of the transfer station shall, at the operator’s sole and absolute discretion, have the right to refuse burn barrels or fireplace ashes if in the operator’s judgment, based on the time of day as relating to the time of closing of the dump, the disposal will create the potential of fires. All masonry rubble and tree limbs (over one inch in diameter) shall be deposited at a disposal site designated by the Director.
