DNR-CNTY MGT PLANS-RECYCLING                                               

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Solid Waste Planning and Recycling Act. Specifies  the      
   materials  to be considered by a county when calculating the municipal      
   waste  generation  and  recycling  rate  required  to  implement   its      
   recycling  program.   Defines terms.  Requires persons who (i) collect      
   or  transport  materials  for  recycling  purposes,  (ii)  collect  or      
   transport municipal wastes, or (iii) deliver recyclable  materials  to      
   end markets, to provide statements to county recycling coordinators by      
   July  1,  1998  and  semiannually  thereafter.   Exempts  persons  who      
   collect, transport, or process less than 1,000 tons of municipal waste      
   or  recyclable  materials per year.  Imposes reporting requirements on      
   county recycling coordinators and the Department of Natural Resources.      
   Effective July 1, 1997.                                                     
          FISCAL NOTE (DCCA)                                                   
          Increased expenses are estimated at $67,000 from the Solid           
          Waste Management Fund, effective FY99. Effective FY98, esti-         
          mated fiscal impact on county recycling operations coordinators      
          is $13,666.                                                          
        HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                 
          Deletes reference to:                                                
          415 ILCS 15/7                                                        
          Adds reference to:                                                   
          415 ILCS 15/5.5 new                                                  
        Replaces the title and  everything  after  the  enacting  clause.      
   Amends  the  Solid  Waste  Planning  and  Recycling  Act  to  redefine      
   "municipal  waste".  Revises  the method for determining the recycling      
   rate under a county waste management plan. Creates the Measurement and      
   Reporting Standards Task Force to assess impediments  to  standardized      
   solid  waste  measurement  and to consider standardized reporting rate      
   measurements. Provides that landfills,  transfer  stations,  recycling      
   centers,  and transporters of hazardous waste shall not be required to      
   report  to  a  county  quantities  of  municipal  waste  according  to      
   categories set forth in the definition of "municipal waste".                
          STATE MANDATES FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 1                                   
          HB664, with H-am 1, creates a service mandate which requires         
          a 50% to 100% reimbursement by the State.                            
          FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 1 (DCCA)                                           
          HB 664 imposes additional requirements on local governments;         
          however, fiscal impact is difficult to determine.                    
        HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 2.                                                 
        Increases  the  membership  of  the  Measurement  and   Reporting      
   Standards  Task  Force  to include 2 members representing the National      
   Solid Wastes Management Association.
