An act to amend Section 25143.6 of the Health and Safety Code,
relating to hazardous waste.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2457, as introduced, Valadao. Hazardous waste: shredder waste.
The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 requires
materials that require special handling, as defined, to be removed
from major appliances and vehicles in which they are contained prior
to crushing for transport or transferring to a baler or shredder for
recycling. Recycling residue used as solid waste landfill daily cover
is required to meet certain performance standards and requirements
specified in the regulations adopted by the Department of Resources
Recycling and Recovery. The hazardous waste control laws require
specified California regional water quality control boards to
prepare, by February 15, 1988, a list of class III landfills
authorized to accept and dispose of shredder waste.
This bill would delete and correct obsolete references in these
provisions.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
