Bill > HB336

This bill establishes new provisions for solid waste disposal charges and truck load regulations. The bill requires operators of solid waste sanitary and demolition landfills to collect a fee of twenty-five cents per ton of solid waste, which will be submitted to the state road fund for highway beautification purposes. The fee will increase by twenty-five cents annually from 2027 to 2030, and thereafter will be adjusted based on the Consumer Price Index. Transfer stations in Missouri must also transmit a similar fee, with exceptions for recycling-focused stations. Political subdivisions can designate up to two free disposal days per year where residents can dispose of waste without paying state fees. Additionally, the bill modifies the state's point system for driver's licenses by adding a new two-point penalty for failure to secure a load on a truck, which helps ensure road safety by discouraging improperly secured cargo. The department of revenue is authorized to create rules and regulations for fee collection, and the bill includes provisions for auditing and verifying waste volumes and fee transmittals.
