Description The 1998 Legislature directed Ecology (through Engrossed Senate Bill 6203) to extend the study performed last year on the Washington solid waste permitting system. The ealrier study, entitled "ESHB 1419 Report: Washington's Solid Waste Permit System," made recommendations for reducing burdensome permitting mechanisms, especially for recycling facilities. These recommendations prompted the Legislature to adopt permitting exemptions, permit-by-rule, general permits and permit deferrals, as part of ESB 6203. ESB 6203 asks for more investigation of permitting consistency, of the usefulness of the permit-by-rule, and the applicability of best available control technology to recycling facilities. Ecology is to submit its report to the Legislature by December 1, 1998, integrating the results of this study with its earlier studies submitted last December.
