REVISED
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS31612 / S1420
This legislation updates Idaho code 31-44-01 by defining and prohibiting the practice of “flow control” by
local units of Government and ensures there is a public process for the public to be made aware of any pending
decision to create a new solid waste facility but doesn’t change the counties or cities ability to build, own, or
operate such facilities so long as they follow the process of notifying the public.
FISCAL NOTE
There is no impact to the state general fund nor any local unit of government. Passage of this legislation does
not compel local units of government to incur any additional costs.
