What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) generally regulates the disposal of solid waste and the facilities at which solid waste is disposed of. One of the exemptions under current law prohibits DNR from regulating solid waste from a single family or household if it is disposed of on the property where it is generated. This bill eliminates this prohibition on regulating solid waste from a single family or household.
