About the Program
In 1996, the Solid Waste Management and Litter Control Act was revised giving Guam EPA authority to impose administrative penalties for solid and hazardous waste management violations and defined civil versus criminal penalties. The revised Act provided provisions for citizen suits, established permit fees for certain solid waste activities, and created a Solid Waste Management Fund to support activities to effectuate the Act, which includes paying for full-time employees and related expenses. Aside from the Fund, the Program's activities are supported by the Litter Revolving Fund which was created to be used primarily for anti-littering campaigns. U.S EPA has released a fact sheet on the second five-year review for the Ordot Dump Superfund site. The fact sheet covers the history and current status of the site. It is available in 3 languages: The following regulations are administered by the Solid Waste Management Program. For more information on the program's statutory authority, please consult 10 Guam Code Annotated, Chapter 51 (Solid Waste Management and Litter Control Act) in the Regulations section of this site.
Program Permits The Solid Waste Management Program is responsible for issuing permits for the collection, transfer, processing, and hardfilling of solid waste. Additional information on these permits, including forms and instrucions, is available in the Permits section of this site.
