AN ACT relating to solid waste management.
HB 108 amends Kentucky law to exclude certain industrial waste facilities from being classified as "municipal solid waste disposal facilities." Specifically, it exempts waste sites owned and operated exclusively by a solid waste generator that only accept industrial waste generated from the generator's own operations on the same or adjacent property (including via corporate affiliates). This change removes these facilities from the requirement to obtain permits under municipal solid waste management rules, which currently apply to most disposal sites. The bill directly affects industrial facilities that manage their own waste streams on-site, altering their regulatory classification without creating new permitting obligations.
