What SB 594 does, verified August 25, 2026
The bill aims to regulate new class iii landfills by requiring a separate public hearing on environmental justice considerations. A county board of supervisors must hold a hearing to determine if the proposed landfill aligns with the county's environmental justice goals and policies. If the proposed landfill meets the conditions, a state agency can issue a waste discharge permit. The bill also requires reimbursement for costs mandated by the state if the commission on state mandates determines that the bill imposes additional duties on local agencies.
