AN ACT CONCERNING THE AIR PERMITS OF CERTAIN CREMATORIES.

HB 5331 allows certain crematories that were approved and had an inspection certificate by January 1, 2020, to continue operating without an active air permit while they apply for or renew their air permits, or seek a permit to expand operations. The bill prevents these facilities from having to shut down during the administrative process for permit renewal or expansion. It applies only to crematories meeting the January 1, 2020, approval deadline, ensuring continuity of services for communities relying on these facilities.
