SECTION 1. The purpose of this Act is to clarify that the solid waste management surcharge applies to all solid waste disposal facilities that receive solid waste for ultimate disposal through landfilling, incineration, or through a waste-to-energy facility, whether the waste is disposed of in-state or transferred out-of-state.
SECTION 2. Section 342G-62, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (a) to read as follows:
"(a) There is established a solid waste
management surcharge. The solid waste management surcharge shall be 35 cents

disposal facilities[.], incineration
facilities, and waste-to-energy facilities; or
(2) Transferred to solid waste reduction facilities within the State that collect solid waste for transport to an out-of-state landfill, incineration facility, or waste-to-energy facility.
The surcharge shall be paid by the person or entity
doing the disposal[.] or the person or
entity responsible for the preparation of collected solid waste for an out-of-state
transfer. The owner or operator of the facility shall transfer all
moneys collected from the surcharge to the department through a quarterly
reporting and payment schedule. Estimates of quarterly solid waste disposal
shall be submitted prior to the first day of each quarter and the transfer of
moneys collected shall occur within thirty days of the end of each
quarter."
