Norelli", "committee": "Science, Technology and Energy", "vote_yeas": 14, "vote_nays": 0, "text": "Mercury is a persistent toxic pollutant that accumulates in the food chain and has significant neurotoxic effects on humans, wildlife and fish. New Hampshire, like other New England states, has advised against eating more than a limited amount of fresh water fish due to Mercury contamination. By December 2005, federal regulations will require that Mercury emission control technology be installed at the waste-to-energy facility in Claremont. This facility serves 15 New Hampshire and 14 Vermont communities. This bill, as amended, would require the facility to meet New Hampshire's more stringent Mercury standard 2-3 years earlier than required by the federal rule. Under the bill, pollution control equipment is expected to be installed by July 2003. Since the NH communities of the NH/VT Solid Waste Project are contractually liable for 34.5% of the operating and maintenance costs associated with any mandated state or federal environmental controls to the facility, this bill would increase costs to the NH communities by $75,900 per year to meet the earlier emissions limit. This bill establishes a state grant program to reimburse those NH communities for the costs associated with the earlier implementation date required by this bill. The fiscal note estimates those costs as up to $75,900 in FY 2004 and FY 2005 and $37,950 in FY 2006. The state grant program would cease after federal regulations require compliance anyway. The committee fully agreed with local residents that preventing Mercury from entering the incinerator through source reduction or recycling would be preferable to reducing Mercury through emission controls after waste is burned. With that in mind, the amendment provides for two compliance alternatives that may eliminate the need for control technology installation. The first alternative allows the commissioner of the Department of Environmental Services (DES) to waive state requirements for the incinerator to install pollution control equipment if the commissioner determines that the plant will close prior to December 2005. The amendment also allows the DES commissioner to waive requirements if the state standard is met and will continue to be met through Mercury source reduction or recycling efforts. Language was also added that said the United States Environmental Protection Agency must also approve any alternative compliance plan in order to protect the interests of the facility owner. Legislation that passed last session required similar reductions of Mercury at another waste to energy facility in Penacook. Installation of pollution control equipment has successfully reduced emissions of Mercury by over 95% at the Penacook facility."}], "source": "House Calendar 24, 2001", "date": "2001-03-16", "dated": "printed", "cite": "HC 24", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2001%5CNo%2024%20March%2016%202001.pdf"}, {"bill": "HB253", "title": "relative to mercury reductions", "majority_recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS", "minority_recommendation": null, "reports": [{"side": "Committee", "author": "Rep.
