The Waste Tire Management Enterprise was established due to the passing of Senate Bill 24-123. The enterprise will aid in the proper management of waste tires by providing financial incentives and rebates for the recycling of waste tires into end-use tire-derived products.
The enterprise will be governed by a board of directors. The board will consist of the following nine members appointed by the executive director of the department:
- Two members representing the department, one with expertise in sustainability and one with expertise in compliance;
- One member who represents a county that has experience with the management of waste tires;
- Six members who are representatives of nonprofit and for-profit entities engaged in the recovery, recycling, reuse, and management of waste tires, including:
- A tire retailer;
- A waste tire collection facility;
- A waste tire processor; and
- A waste tire hauler.
An online application will be available in early 2025 for those interested in participating in the board. Board meetings will be held at least quarterly starting after July 1, 2025.
