AI Summary

This bill modifies Tennessee's environmental reporting requirements by changing the annual deadline for regional solid waste reports from March 31 to February 1. Specifically, the legislation amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 68-211-871(a), which requires each region to submit an annual report to the commissioner of environment and conservation. The report must include comprehensive data on various aspects of solid waste management, such as collection, recycling, transportation, disposal, public costs, and other relevant information.
