Establishes benchmarks for reducing solid waste and increasing organic waste diversion in Hawaii.
The bill amends Hawaii Revised Statutes to set new benchmarks for reducing the solid waste stream and increasing organic waste diversion. It mandates a 40% reduction by 2027 and 70% by 2032, with a complete ban on organic waste in landfills by 2037. The bill also requires counties to incorporate these goals into their integrated solid waste management plans and assesses the feasibility of recycling and bioconversion for organic waste.
