HB2367 is a bill that revises the rules and fees associated with solid waste management in Arizona. It grants the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) the authority to set and modify fees without the need for public notice and comment, including for licensure of vehicles transporting human excreta, biohazardous medical waste, and medical sharps. The bill changes the reporting frequency for used oil transporters from quarterly to annually, exempts special waste facilities from certain fees, and adds fees for lead acid battery collection and recycling to the Solid Waste Fee Fund. It also removes restrictions on fee increases for waste tire collection and solid waste facility plans.

The bill updates the fee collection process for new motor vehicle tires, setting a maximum fee of $2 per tire, and gives the ADEQ director the power to establish maximum fees for tire fees by rule. It simplifies language regarding waste tire management, introduces annual fees for facilities handling special waste, and amends the Solid Waste Fee Fund to include lead acid battery fees. The bill emphasizes that fees should reflect the ADEQ's costs and impose minimal burden. As an emergency measure, it will become effective immediately upon the Governor's signature.
