BILL NUMBER: S1858 SPONSOR: HOYLMAN PURPOSE: This bill would prohibit waste water from oil and gas drilling, includ- ing hydrofracking, which contains a variety of chemical and radioactive contaminants, from being used on highways for purposes such as melting ice. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: The bill prohibits waste generated from the oil and gas industry i.e., the waste water from hydrofracking operations, from being used on high- ways. Section 1 amends Environmental Conservation Law ("ECL") section 23-0305 by adding subdivisions 15 and 16 to prohibit use of waste generated from oil or natural gas extraction and waste generated from oil or natural gas storage on highways, and specifically refers to the Transportation Law definition of highway, to ensure that all public roads are included.
