This bill amends Michigan's environmental laws to impose stricter limits on the location and capacity of hazardous waste disposal facilities. It requires the state to update its waste management plan every five years, ensuring that new facilities are not concentrated in already polluted communities and that the total licensed capacity matches the state's actual waste generation needs. Additionally, the legislation specifically prohibits the acceptance of a type of radioactive waste known as TENORM at designated disposal sites. These changes aim to improve geographic distribution and prevent overloading specific areas with waste treatment infrastructure.
