What changed in the latest version
7 added · 16 removedPlain-language change summary
The recent changes to Senate Bill 147 include the removal of its original title and the substitution of a new title that clarifies the bill's purpose. The amended bill now specifies that it aims to shift funding from the Landfill Closure Assistance Fund to local solid waste authorities while also providing certain exemptions from fees for specific landfills. This change is significant because it addresses local funding needs for waste management and potentially helps reduce costs for municipalities managing landfill operations.
