SB 910 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the establishment of a grant program to support the elimination of illegally disposed of scrap tires.

SB 910 establishes a state grant program to help counties address illegally dumped scrap tires. The bill creates a dedicated fund (using state appropriations, federal grants, and interest) to award grants to counties for three specific actions: prosecuting violators of existing scrap tire disposal laws, educating the public about proper disposal, and physically removing illegally dumped tires from waterways and public lands. The program targets tires discarded in inland/coastal water and public rights-of-way, which pose environmental and safety risks. Counties would use the grants to reduce this illegal disposal, with the program taking effect September 1, 2025.
