Amends TCA Title 11, Chapter 13 and Title 68.
Tennessee HB0895 amends the Tennessee Code Annotated by removing the two-mile buffer requirement between class II scenic rivers and new or expanded landfill sites. This change affects the regulation of landfill siting in relation to scenic rivers, potentially allowing for landfill development closer to these protected areas. The key provision of the bill is the elimination of the existing distance restriction, which may impact environmental protections and land use planning.
