Environment and natural resources; creating the Oklahoma Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances Act; providing application, liability, and fee assessment for certain waste disposal. Emergency.

SB 271 creates Oklahoma's first state-level regulatory framework for perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), focusing on waste disposal. It protects specific entities like public water systems, wastewater treatment facilities, fire departments using PFAS-containing AFFF foam, and airports from civil liability for PFAS releases - unless they violated regulations or acted with gross negligence. The bill requires the Environmental Quality Board to establish rules for PFAS waste handling, mandates fees for disposal (replacing tonnage fees), and requires permits for facilities processing over 200 pounds of AFFF waste daily. It also sets standards for classifying out-of-state PFAS waste and declares an emergency to expedite implementation.
