ROCK SPRINGS — Neither the public nor members of the Rock Springs City Council commented on a resolution supporting the creation of mobile vendor sector control policy. The policy will be used to provide wastewater disposal guidance for vendors.

The resolution passed unanimously tonight. With approval from the Council, mobile vendors will be required to follow all disposal and record keeping requirements spelled out in the Mobile Vendor Sector Control Policy.

According to the policy, “The following locations are specifically prohibited from being used; RV dumps, carwashes, home clean outs, manholes, storm drains/inlets or surface locations.”

For record keeping, “all wastewater disposed of by a mobile food vendor must be recorded.”

Mobile vendors will also need to allow city personnel access for inspections, sampling, and record examination.
