An Act prohibiting the burning of construction and demolition waste as fuel
This bill prohibits energy facilities from burning construction and demolition waste as fuel due to the risk of releasing toxic chemicals like arsenic compounds into the air. It directly affects energy-generating facilities that previously used such waste as fuel, requiring them to stop this practice immediately. The bill mandates the Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs to update facility regulations within 60 days to enforce the ban, allowing temporary suspensions of permits to implement the change quickly. The law aims to protect public health by preventing exposure to hazardous substances from burning treated building materials.
