PAG LIN 1 1 Section 1. Section 455D.3, Code 1995, is amended by adding 1 2 the following new subsection: 1 3 NEW SUBSECTION. 5. MORATORIUM ON FIFTY PERCENT GOAL. 1 4 Notwithstanding subsection 1, the fifty percent waste stream 1 5 reduction and recycling goal shall not be enforced against any 1 6 planning area which operates a sanitary disposal project as 1 7 defined in section 455B.301 until the planning area has the 1 8 legal right to require that all solid waste generated within 1 9 its boundaries be disposed of only in sanitary disposal 1 10 projects operated by the planning area. Such right shall be 1 11 deemed to have arisen when the United States supreme court 1 12 determines that flow-control restrictions are constitutional 1 13 and otherwise permissible. A planning area under this 1 14 subsection shall comply with the fifty percent waste stream 1 15 reduction and recycling goal within five years after attaining 1 16 the right to impose flow-control restrictions. 1 17 EXPLANATION 1 18 This bill provides that a planning area is not required to 1 19 comply with the 50 percent waste stream reduction and 1 20 recycling goal until the United States supreme court grants 1 21 the right to impose flow-control restrictions. Flow-control 1 22 restrictions would allow a planning area the right to require 1 23 that all waste generated within the planning area's boundaries 1 24 be disposed of only in sanitary disposal projects operated by 1 25 the planning area. The bill provides that within five years 1 26 of being granted the right to impose flow-control restrictions 1 27 a planning area must meet the 50 percent goal. 1 28 LSB 2315HV 76 1 29 js/jj/8
