CS/HB 331 (McClure) and CS/SB 694 (Rodrigues) require a local government that displaces an existing solid waste provider, in addition to meeting the procedural and three-year notice requirements in current law, to pay the provider an amount equal to the company’s preceding 18 months’ gross receipts for the service in the displaced area. CS/SB 694 would also require the Department of Environmental Protection to review and update its 2010 report on retail bags analyzing the need for new or different regulation of auxiliary containers, wrappings or disposable plastic bags used by consumers.
