Public trust dashboard
Every disposal verdict on ClearPath ships with its source: the rule, the citation, and the freshness date. This page rolls those signals up across the whole platform, so anyone can audit what we actually stand behind.
Five things that will always be true.
These are our hard promises. They will not change as the platform grows. If we ever feel pressure to bend one of them, we will say no.
- 01
Local rules come first.
When a city rule, a county rule, a state rule, and a federal rule all apply to the same item, the most local one wins — but never in a way that lets a local rule bypass federal safety requirements for hazardous waste.
- 02
Every answer points back to its source.
We don't publish an answer without a real document or webpage behind it. We re-check every linked source regularly. If a source has not been re-confirmed in six months, our team is alerted to take another look.
- 03
AI never has the final word.
When our rule engine can't answer a question, AI helps as a backup. But a real person reviews everything AI suggests before it reaches a resident or becomes part of the catalog. AI is never allowed to publish on its own.
- 04
Your county's data stays your county's.
Every search, every rule, every report belongs to a single county. Other counties cannot see your data. If we ever need to look across counties — for an anonymous, aggregated comparison — it requires explicit permission and is recorded.
- 05
Residents never pay, never see ads.
The platform is paid for by counties, cities, and hauler partnerships. Residents are users, not customers. We will not sell resident data, run ads, or market to residents on anyone's behalf.
