HB516

Modifies criteria of hazardous waste investigations and increases the hazardous waste fund appropriations

Session: 2025 Sponsor: Mark Matthiesen

Currently, the Department of Natural Resources must use the Radioactive Waste Investigation Fund to investigate concerns of waste exposure submitted by a local governing body. Under this bill, requests for investigations can be submitted in writing by any local governing body, community group, or individual in the jurisdiction of an area of concern. The bill allows the Fund to accept gifts, bequests, and other devises of funds without limitation. This bill prevents the use of the Fund for any costs related to clean up efforts.
