2009 - 2010 Legislation Update - October 16, 2009 Print


The Legislative Committee uses the internet site www.leginfo.ca.gov to track legislation. 

The final report for this calendar year is listed below.  October 11, 2009, was the last day for bills to be signed or vetoed by the Governor.  The bills that made it to the Governor are indicated in bold font.  This is the first year of a two year cycle so if a bill didn't pass the legislature could introduce it in the next session. 

Bill topics that are being tracked by CEHA include food, hazardous materials and waste, medical waste, solid waste, water, rec health, liquid waste, land use, air quality, and miscellaneous environmental issues.  If you have any questions regarding legislation or would like to volunteer to help, please contact Melinda Talent at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
