AI Summary

This bill requires the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) to conduct a comprehensive study on waste management and submit a detailed report to the interim legislative committees focused on environmental issues by September 15, 2026. The legislation mandates that the report be prepared according to ORS 192.245 (a state statute governing public records and reporting) and may include potential legislative recommendations for future policy improvements. The bill includes a sunset provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, effectively making this a time-limited directive for the DEQ to investigate and provide insights into waste management practices. The study's specific scope and methodology are not detailed in the bill text, leaving the DEQ flexibility in designing its research approach while ensuring a formal reporting process to legislative committees.
