SB 751 North Carolina Senate · 2025-2026 Session

Protect Children from Leaking Garbage Trucks.

SB 751 restores a public health rule requiring solid waste transport vehicles (like garbage trucks) to prevent leaks that could contaminate streets and public spaces. It reinstates a 2013-era regulation (15A NCAC 13B .0105) that was previously repealed, setting standards for securing waste containers during transport. This rule directly affects garbage truck operators and protects public health, particularly for children who may be near collection sites. The bill mandates the Public Health Commission to adopt this rule without standard administrative delays.
