SB 38, the "Tennessee Waste Reduction and Recycling Act" (TWRRA), is a procedural bill that changes the deadline for annual waste reporting. It shifts the date by which Tennessee's Department of Environment and Conservation must make report forms and information available online from January 1 to January 10 each year. This change directly affects municipal solid waste regions that submit annual reports to the department. The bill does not create new waste reduction policies but adjusts a reporting deadline for administrative efficiency. (Note: The bill was withdrawn on January 30, 2025.)
