AI Summary

This bill enhances the environmental and public health considerations under the state's environmental justice statute and gives the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) and the Connecticut Siting Council the ability to deny certain permits for new affecting facilities (e.g., power plants, incinerators, landfills) and apply conditions to the expansion of existing facilities located in environmental justice communities. Key provisions include requiring applicants to file an assessment of environmental or public health stressors, obtain approval of a meaningful public participation plan, consult with the municipality on a community environmental benefit agreement, and receive approval of a public participation report before DEEP or the Siting Council can take action on a permit application. The bill also allows DEEP or the Siting Council to deny permits or impose conditions to mitigate environmental and public health impacts in environmental justice communities.
