What is Waste Tire Disposal Self-Certification – Washington, DC?
The Waste Tire Disposal Self-Certification is a statement, issued by the Government of the District of Columbia's Department of Licensing and Consumer Protection (DLCP), in which a business certifies that it has established written procedures for the transport and proper disposal of waste tires.
The form is tied to a specific license category. Its text says the certification is made in conjunction with the applicant's application for a Basic Business License for the NEW AND USED TIRE DEALER category. The procedures must be in accord with laws and regulations, and the form cites District of Columbia Official Code Title 47, Chapter 2832.02.
The form has three parts: a sentence in which you fill in your name, your title and the name of the business; the applicant's signature and date; and a second statement that the information is true and complete to the best of your knowledge and belief, that you agree to comply with all applicable District of Columbia laws and regulations, and that you understand a false statement on the form can lead to criminal prosecution under D.C. Official Code § 22-2405.
It does not describe the disposal procedures themselves: it certifies that they exist in writing. DLCP's Business License Center, at 1100 4th Street, SW, 2nd Floor, Washington, DC 20024, is printed at the top of the form.
Who needs to file Waste Tire Disposal Self-Certification – Washington, DC?
The main group is businesses applying for a Basic Business License in the NEW AND USED TIRE DEALER category in the District of Columbia. The form is worded for that category only: it certifies procedures "in conjunction with my application" for that license.
- The person signing states his or her title at the business. The form asks for the title and the name of the business, so it is completed by someone who can certify on the business's behalf.
- The signer must have already established written procedures for the transport and proper disposal of waste tires, because that is what the form certifies.
The form does not apply to other license categories: it names the New and Used Tire Dealer category and no other. It also does not mention representatives signing for someone else, so the signature block is for the applicant. For questions about whether your business falls under this category, DLCP lists a helpline at 202.671.4500 and the website dlcp.dc.gov.
When to file Waste Tire Disposal Self-Certification – Washington, DC
