Environmental protection: solid waste; reporting and compliance requirements for anaerobic digesters; modify. Amends secs. 11502 & 11503 of 1994 PA 451 (MCL 324.11502 & 324.11503). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5790'24

This bill updates Michigan's environmental laws to clarify definitions and reporting requirements for anaerobic digesters and the materials they produce. It establishes specific criteria for what counts as "beneficial use" for various waste by-products, such as ash and digestate, when used in construction, agriculture, or other applications. Additionally, the legislation sets new benchmarks for curbside recycling access, requiring municipalities to provide services to at least 90% of urban single-family homes by 2026 and 2028. These changes aim to standardize how waste management facilities operate and ensure that recycled materials are used safely and effectively across the state.
