KDHE asks committee to introduce RS2936 to ratify hazardous‑waste fee increases
Summary
Deputy Secretary Kate Gleason told the committee KDHE seeks ratification of regulations to increase fees for certain hazardous‑waste permittees, referencing House Bill 2648 and RS2936; the committee introduced the measure by unanimous consent with no objections recorded.
Kate Gleason, deputy secretary of the Division of Environment at the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, told the Agriculture and Natural Resources budget committee she was presenting RS2936, a recommendation to ratify administrative regulations that increase fees for hazardous‑waste permittees that exceed a statutory threshold over five years.
Gleason said the fee changes implement requirements from House Bill 2648 and provided the RS number (26RS2936) to the committee. The chair asked if there were questions; with none raised, the chair asked if there was objection to introducing the legislation. Seeing no objection, the chair introduced RS2936.
No vote tally or roll call was recorded in the transcript; the action proceeded by the chair’s announcement of introduction. The committee did not debate the details of the fee‑setting regulation during the hearing and did not receive extended testimony on the fiscal or programmatic impacts of the fee change at that time. The item was introduced to the committee record for future consideration.
