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.
