Book excerpt: HB 2249 passed in 2013 directing KDHE to prepare a report for the Legislature that evaluates the adequacy of current waste reduction practices in Kansas and recommends the need for new laws or regulations to improve those practices. The directive to carry out this study was prompted by local rules adopted by Johnson County to restrict yard waste disposal in any landfill in the county as a way to conserve landfill capacity. The county action stimulated debate regarding the need for new state disposal restrictions to achieve statewide waste reduction goals and to ensure that all waste management service providers are subject to the same rules.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "After two years of deliberation, the Kansas Legislature passed House Bill 2249 near the end of the 2013 session in response to a yard waste landfill disposal ban implemented by Johnson County. The ban applied to a privately- owned municipal solid waste landfill that serves multiple cities and counties outside of Johnson County. In accordance with HB 2249, state law now prohibits a city or county from adopting landfill disposal restrictions that affect persons outside of the city or county unless the city or county owns the landfill. State law does allow a city or county to establish disposal restrictions that apply only to the residents of their own city or county even if the waste is disposed of in a privately-owned landfill in the city or county."--Introduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Household hazardous waste (HHW) represents a wide variety of wastes, which are produced as a result of normal household activities. Among the most common of these are: Latex and oil-based paints, pesticides, paint thinners and other solvents; Motor oil, antifreeze and other automobile fluids; Household cleaners, polishes, and waxes; Wood preservatives, photo and hobby chemicals; Swimming pool chemicals; Lithium ion/rechargeable/alkaline/ lead acid batteries; Fluorescent bulbs, electronics, and pharmaceuticals; [and] Sharps medical waste. Each of these products may pose a threat to sanitation workers or public health and the environment when improperly handled or disposed. HHW discarded with other trash may contaminate the air or groundwater, react or explode in waste compactors, or injure personnel handling these wastes. Improper disposal to sanitary or storm water sewers may damage septic systems, sewage treatment plants, drinking water supplies, corrode plumbing, or cause treatment plant sludge to become hazardous. A limited number of HHW programs are now accepting sharps medical waste to provide a safer means of disposal to prevent potential accidents at solid waste disposal and recycling facilities."--Introduction.
