citizen suits committee; solid waste

SB 1324 establishes a temporary study committee to examine whether Arizona should add citizen lawsuit provisions to its solid and hazardous waste laws. The committee, composed of 7 members representing legislative committees, environmental groups, citizens' rights organizations, industry, and waste facilities, must report its findings to state leaders by December 31, 2025. This bill does not change existing laws but sets up a process to study potential policy changes, with the committee dissolving after June 30, 2026. The committee members themselves are the direct participants, not the public affected by the study.
