Solid waste cease and transfer program funding.
HB 50 prioritizes funding for municipal solid waste facility projects using existing state funds. It establishes a ranked list of 18 specific projects, including $100,000 for animal waste disposal infrastructure and up to $4 million for landfill closures in communities like Thermopolis, Big Horn County, and Upton. The Department of Environmental Quality can adjust the priority order for efficiency, project readiness, or environmental emergencies. Annual reports to legislative committees detail funding allocations and project modifications.
