SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Control program for unauthorized wastes.  Establishes a program to protect the public health, safety, and welfare and the environment of the Commonwealth from the improper disposal of solid waste by directing landfills, transfer stations, incinerators, and waste-to-energy facilities to establish programs to ensure that only authorized types of solid waste are accepted at the facilities. This bill provides that any municipal solid waste landfill, transfer station, incinerator, or waste-to-energy facility may accept waste that was generated outside of the Commonwealth only if the owner or operator demonstrates that the state or the locality where the solid waste was generated has adopted standards to ensure that only wastes that meet the standards set by the Waste Management Board will be sent to the Commonwealth.
