H.R.607 was introduced into the US House of Representatives on January 23, 1991 to amend the Solid Waste Disposal Act. The key feature of the bill involves authorizing states to regulate the interstate disposal of hazardous waste and solid waste. Each state will prepare a twenty-year plan for the management of all solid waste generated in the state. The plan may include provisions for disposal outside the state of solid waste generated in the state only if the state determines that it does not have the capacity to handle the disposal of the waste in the state.
