begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to apply the solid waste management surcharge to incineration and waste-to-energy facilities that dispose of solid waste within the State and solid waste reduction facilities that collect and prepare solid waste for transport to out-of-state landfills, incineration facilities, and waste-to-energy facilities.
