Abstract
The public interest requires assurance that optimal management exist for hazardous waste from current activities, small quantity generation, and site cleanup actions. The Michigan Toxic Substance Control Commission examined private, semi-private, and state systems in terms of short- and long-term public health and environmental protection, and concluded that a state-chartered Hazardous Waste Authority should be considered to emphasize recycling/treatment/destruction as alternatives to land disposal.Keywords
