Hazardous materials: non-RCRA hazardous waste: landfill disposal.

This bill would require non-RCRA hazardous waste that is destined for land disposal to be disposed of in a landfill regulated by specific provisions of RCRA. By increasing the duties of a CUPA, and by expanding the scope of a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

This bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

With regard to any other mandates, this bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
