BILL NUMBER:S5123 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to prohibiting the importation of any waste product or byproduct from hydraulic fracturing operations PURPOSE: The purpose of this legislation is to prevent the disposal of hydraulic fracturing waste from out of state. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: This legislation amends the environmental conservation law to prohibit hydraulic fracturing waste or waste by-products from being shipped into New York State for disposal purposes. JUSTIFICATION: New York State is currently the recipient of waste products from hydraulic fracturing disposal from other States which are conducting high volume hydraulic fracturing, commonly referred to as "fracking". This oil and gas wastewater can legally be disposed of at municipal water treatment plants because it is currently exempt from the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), which generally regulates the handling and disposal of oil and gas drilling waste
