This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 297H.01, subdivision 8, to modify the definition of "residential generator" in the context of solid waste management. The updated definition now includes an additional category: organizations exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code that receive donations for resale and salvage from entities classified as residential generators. This change expands the scope of who qualifies as a residential generator, thereby impacting how waste management services are billed and managed.
Additionally, the bill removes the exclusion of self-haulers from the definition of residential generators. The amendments will take effect on July 1, 2025, allowing for a transition period for affected parties to adjust to the new definitions and regulations regarding solid waste management in Minnesota.
