Waste Facilities

Summary

The measure would stop local governments and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection from issuing construction permits for new solid‑waste disposal facilities that use ash‑producing incinerators or waste‑to‑energy technology if they are located within one mile of a federally authorized impoundment of at least 100 acres. It also creates recycling credit incentives for counties, sets reporting requirements, and ties grant eligibility to meeting recycling goals. The bill died in the State Affairs Committee and did not become law.
