What is CA AB 993 about?

Existing law requires the Secretary for Environmental Protection to adopt regulations and implement a unified hazardous waste and hazardous materials management regulatory program.

Existing law establishes the Rural CUPA Reimbursement Account in the General Fund, and requires the Secretary for Environmental Protection to allocate funds to counties with populations of less than 150,000 persons for which a CUPA has not been certified on or before January 1, 2000, and in which the unified program has been implemented by a CUPA designated by the secretary, as specified, in amounts not to exceed designated percentages of budgeted costs.
