Summary:

The 106th Congress inherited three solid waste issues from the 105th and earlier Congresses: interstate shipment of waste, the management of what are called "remediation wastes" from old hazardous waste sites, and implementation of the Basel Convention on Transboundary Movement of Waste. The 105th Congress adjourned without passing bills on these issues, although each was discussed.
