Hazardous waste: identification: acute aquatic toxicity criterion.Existing law requires the Department of Toxic Substances Control to regulate the handling and management of hazardous waste. Existing law requires the department to develop and adopt by regulation criteria and guidelines for the identification of hazardous wastes and extremely hazardous wastes. Existing law requires the department, by March 1, 2023, and every 3 years thereafter, to prepare, and post on its internet website, a report that includes an analysis of available data related to hazardous waste that includes specified components. Existing law requires the department, by March 1, 2025, and every 3 years thereafter, to prepare a state hazardous waste management plan based on the report, to be presented to the Board of Environmental Safety for approval.This bill would require the department, subject to an appropriation by the Legislature in the Budget Act of 2022 that implements a proposal to review the departments hazardous waste criteria, and as part of the departments comprehensive evaluation of its criteria and guidelines for the identification of hazardous wastes and extremely hazardous wastes, to review its acute toxicity criterion, as provided. The bill would require the department, once the review is completed, to develop recommendations on next steps to consider related to the aquatic toxicity criterion, as specified, and incorporate the recommendations into the departments state hazardous waste management plan.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. Section 25141.1 is added to the Health and Safety Code, to read:25141.1.
