The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 115A.06, subdivision 2, to prohibit the commissioner from adopting rules that apply exclusively to construction and demolition landfills. Specifically, it inserts provisions that prevent the commissioner from creating regulations that solely govern solid waste disposal facilities accepting construction and demolition debris, incidental nonrecyclable packaging, or industrial waste limited to specific materials such as wood, concrete, porcelain fixtures, shingles, or window glass from the manufacture of construction materials.

Additionally, the bill includes an effective date clause stating that the new provisions will take effect the day following final enactment and will apply to any proposed or adopted rule that is not yet effective as of that date. This legislative change aims to streamline regulations and ensure that rules governing solid waste disposal facilities are not overly restrictive for those dealing with construction and demolition debris.
