HB 2433 Solid waste management facility siting.
Introduced by: W. Tayloe Murphy, Jr. | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)
Solid waste management facility siting. Alters the sequence of events in the approval process for the siting of municipal solid waste landfills, waste incinerators, and facilities which will receive commercially transported waste from a barge, ship or other vessel. Currently, localities provide local land use permits prior to the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) making a determination of site suitability. Under this bill the DEQ director must make a determination of site suitability (commonly referred to as a “Part A permit”) before a locality may provide approval through its local land use authority for the siting. The director must hold a public hearing in the locality where the facility is proposed to be located and must find that there are no site related characteristics which would, as a result of the facility being constructed, have adverse impact on health, safety, welfare, or the environment before he provides site approval. Site approval by DEQ does not require that the locality provide approval.
