Our next topic involves some unscrupulous individuals that are conducting widespread illegal dumping in Tennessee. In the March 11, 2016 edition of the Knoxville News Sentinel, an article titled ‘Loudon County targets illegal tire dumping’ was authored by Hugh G. Willett, which tells us the following: “The illegal dumping of hundreds of used tires along Loudon County roads this week is an example of a problem that has plagued the state. Sometimes there are 40 to 50 in one spot, or even as many as a hundred at a time. Chris Parks, director of the County Convenience Center says The 400 tires dumped in three separate areas this week is the largest such incident on record. The county pays the landfill $1.35 for each tire dumped. In 2015 they picked up over 200 units and paid about $2,000 in disposal costs, excluding labor and transportation. He says it took one deputy and four workers from the county road supervisor’s office almost a full day to load & transport the units from this latest incident. County Mayor Bradshaw said he wants to see the responsible individual or individuals charged with a felony. The commission voted to offer a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the culprits.

The fine for illegal dumping is $500. Sheriff Guider says he has discussed the possibility of enhanced charges. Tennessee Department of Environment spokesperson Eric Ward said TDEC enforces illegal tire disposal, which is prevalent. Tire dealers are required to keep records of how many units they sell and are only allowed to dispose of the same number. Tire dealers pay tipping fees at the dump in addition to the per-unit. Private individuals are allowed to send (4) units to the dump at a time. They would like to see more competition in the disposal business, which would lower the cost of legal disposal & reduce incentives to dump illegally.

There is a fee to fund projects creating or supporting uses for waste tires. The fee will provide TN with an estimated $1.2M the first year to be paid to qualified applicants as grants. The program funds projects that result alternative uses for the waste units including recycling and creating other products. 15 years ago they were taken to state prisons to be ground into mulch or powder, used as filler in sports fields and roads. At one time they were burned to create energy but ceased now amid concerns on air pollution. Additionally, the current low cost of oil reduces the incentive to recycle rubber.
