In December 2006 amendments were made to Part 169, Scrap Tires, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (NREPA). Section 16908(3) of Part 169 authorizes the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) to issue reimbursement grants for the following:
Not more than $500,000 each year for grants to reimburse the cost of purchasing scrap tires to support the development of increased markets for scrap tires. Only the cost of purchasing scrap tires from Michigan scrap tire processors or other generators of scrap tires in Michigan is eligible for reimbursement.
A scrap tire is defined as a tire that is no longer being used for its original intended purpose including, but not limited to, a used tire, a reusable tire casing, or portions of a tire.
Cost reimbursement grants are available for 50 percent of the cost of purchasing scrap tires. Reimbursement cannot exceed $50 per ton.
Cost reimbursement grants are available for up to 50 percent of the cost of purchasing equipment, or for research and development, to provide for a new or increased use for scrap tires.
