Interim study on waste-to-energy

This is a procedural joint resolution requesting an interim study on waste-to-energy technologies. It directs Montana's Legislative Council to examine whether waste-to-energy facilities could supplement the state's energy resources, analyze their economic impact on citizens and industries, and assess environmental and social effects. The study will evaluate methods like incineration and gasification, comparing domestic and international implementations. The final report must be submitted to the 70th Legislature by September 15, 2026. The resolution itself does not enact new policies but seeks information for future legislative decisions.
