What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law prohibits the disposal of certain materials in solid waste disposal

facilities, such as landfills. The law prohibits the disposal of oil absorbent materials

that contain waste oil in a solid waste disposal facility, except that the prohibition

does not apply to the disposal of less than one gallon of oil absorbent materials that

contain waste oil resulting from a nonroutine spill.

This bill replaces the general prohibition on disposing of oil absorbent materials

that contain waste oil in a solid waste disposal facility with a narrower prohibition.

Under this bill, a person may not dispose of oil absorbent materials that contain

waste oil in a solid waste disposal facility unless oil has been drained from the

materials and the materials are not hazardous waste.
