HB 2255 -- SOLID WASTE PERMITS

SPONSOR: Davis

Currently, the Department of Natural Resources is prohibited from issuing a permit for the operation of a solid waste disposal area designed to serve a city with a population greater than 400,000 inhabitants located in more than one county, if the site is located within one-half mile of an adjoining municipality without its approval.

This bill removes the population requirements and changes the required distance from any adjoining municipality from one-half mile to one mile.
