Book excerpt: "State law [K.S.A. 65-3406(a)(5)] directs the secretary of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) to develop a statewide solid waste management plan. In accordance with this directive, the first state plan was adopted in 1996 and has been updated every five years since then. This 2021-2025 plan is the sixth version of the state plan. The plan provides an overview of the current condition of solid waste management in Kansas and establishes state program goals to be implemented by KDHE for the next five years. The plan retains the fundamental philosophy of all earlier plans and applicable state law: that local governments working together with appointed local stakeholders are responsible for local planning and decisions related to local solid waste management practices that best serve their communities. The KDHE solid waste program supports local solid waste systems by permitting solid waste disposal areas and processing facilities; ensuring compliance of permitted facilities with applicable laws, and; providing technical and financial assistance to support local programs. The combined efforts of local planning and state solid waste program implementation serve to protect the public health and environment of all Kansans."-- Executive Summary.
