(1) In order to ensure that solid waste is safely stored and disposed of, a retirement home must:

(a) store all solid waste between collections in containers which have lids and are corrosion resistant, flytight, watertight, and rodent proof;

(b) utilize exterior collection stands for the storage containers, which prevent them from being tipped, protect them from deterioration, and allow easy cleaning below and around them;

(c) clean all solid waste containers frequently; and

(d) transport or utilize a private or municipal hauler to transport the solid waste at least weekly to an approved landfill site in a covered vehicle or in covered containers.
