Senators approve introduction to print of draft RS 32352 on solid-waste definition; further meetings planned
Summary
Senators approved introduction to print for proposed RS 32352, a draft bill concerning solid-waste definitions and related impacts; sponsors said additional meetings with counties and solid-waste providers are scheduled.
Senators approved introduction to print of draft request RS 32352, a proposed statutory change that the sponsor said will continue to prompt conversation and have impacts across the state. Senator Den Hartog asked the committee to permit the measure to be printed so stakeholders — including solid-waste disposal providers and counties — can review and participate in scheduled meetings on the proposal.
Senator Harris moved to introduce RS 32352 to print and Senator Taves seconded; the committee approved the motion by voice vote. The sponsor told the committee that working meetings are already scheduled this week to consult with disposal providers and many counties about the draft measure, which the sponsor said “defines flow” and will require more discussion.
The committee’s action makes the draft available for formal review and begins a process of stakeholder consultation; no substantive committee amendments or final policy decisions were made at this hearing.
