A hearing on H.R. 5186, which would give states more control over solid wastes entering their boundaries than is provided in the Solid Waste Disposal Act, focused on concerns about the transport and storage of hazardous materials as states face a rapidly decreasing capacity to absorb more waste material. The ten witnesses included local officials, waste processing and management companies, recycling companies, and environmental agencies. Their testimony follows the text of H.R. 5186.
