HB 2452 allows certain counties to contract for the provision of solid waste disposal services in areas within their extraterritorial jurisdiction. It specifically applies to counties with populations above 1.5 million (with 70% of the population residing in a single municipality) or counties with populations under 1.3 million containing a municipality with 750,000 or more residents. The bill also modifies the rules around solid waste disposal fees and regulations, and it creates a criminal offense for illegal burning of household refuse in certain unincorporated areas.
