Concerns regulation of solid waste, hazardous waste, and recycling industries.

AI Summary

This bill requires businesses involved in recycling or providing recycling services to register with the Attorney General within 90 days of enactment, providing their business name and addresses where trucks or equipment are kept. The Attorney General will then issue a recycling registration. The bill also amends existing laws to clarify definitions and procedures related to licensing and disclosure statements for businesses in the solid waste, hazardous waste, and recycling industries, with the Attorney General taking over licensing approval responsibilities previously held by the Department of Environmental Protection. It expands the scope of disclosure statements to include more detailed information about business operations, individuals involved, and any past violations or legal issues. Furthermore, the bill establishes new provisions for the Attorney General to set application and license fees for recycling licenses, create a shared information system for regulators, and develop a list of debarred entities. It also mandates the Attorney General to pursue interstate agreements for information sharing regarding these industries.
