Exempt Facility Program
Exempt Facility Description
Exempt Facility Bonds are tax-exempt private activity bonds
that are issued by state and local governmental agencies to
finance solid waste disposal and waste recycling facilities.
The tax-exempt bonds provide facility owners with low cost
financing in the form of below market interest rate loans.
The interest rate savings enable the project owners to
maintain lower customer rates or minimize customer rate
increases, while at the same time assisting the communities
they serve meet their mandated requirements to protect and
enhance the environment. Exempt facility projects also
benefit the communities by creating new jobs.
