Abstract

The Commission considers how best to implement in Texas that part of the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 that deals with solid waste management. Texas state and local governments already have an advanced program for disposing of solid waste under regulated conditions intended to protect public health and the quality of our air and water. The federal act may strengthen this program. It also may encourage attempts to develop energy and natural resource recovery projects.
