Summary of Bill HR 2191
Bill 118 hr 2191, also known as the "To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for Environmental Protection Agency, Hazardous Waste Electronic Manifest System for fiscal year 2024," aims to restrict the amount of funds available for the Hazardous Waste Electronic Manifest System within the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for the fiscal year 2024.
The Hazardous Waste Electronic Manifest System is a program within the EPA that tracks the movement of hazardous waste from its point of generation to its final disposal. This system helps ensure that hazardous waste is properly managed and disposed of in a safe and environmentally responsible manner.
The bill proposes limitations on the availability of funds for this system, which could potentially impact the EPA's ability to effectively monitor and regulate hazardous waste disposal. Supporters of the bill argue that this limitation is necessary to ensure that funds are allocated efficiently and effectively within the EPA. Critics of the bill, however, are concerned that restricting funds for the Hazardous Waste Electronic Manifest System could lead to gaps in oversight and enforcement of hazardous waste disposal, potentially putting public health and the environment at risk. Overall, Bill 118 hr 2191 raises important questions about the balance between fiscal responsibility and environmental protection, and the potential consequences of limiting funds for critical EPA programs.
