Automobile dismantling: enforcement.

Existing law requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to collaborate with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, the California Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Toxic Substances Control, the State Water Resources Control Board, the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery, and the State Air Resources Board to review and coordinate enforcement and compliance activity related to unlicensed and unregulated automobile dismantling, including resulting tax evasion, environmental impacts, and public health impacts. Existing law requires the department, in consultation with those agencies, on or before January 1, 2024, to submit a related report to the Legislature, including specified information. Existing law would repeal these provisions on January 1, 2025. This bill would extend the operation of these provisions indefinitely and would require the department, on or before January 1, 2027, to submit to the Legislature a report updating the data, information, and recommendations provided in the above-described report.
