SB 488 is a bill to cap and monitor toxic emissions from waste incineration, passed both the Senate and House. SB 488 requires Covanta Marion, a large municipal waste incinerator located northeast of Salem, to deploy continuous emissions monitoring for the most hazardous chemicals known to harm human health and the environment. In addition, medical waste incineration, which produces the most dioxin, will be capped at 18,000 tons/year.
Beyond Toxics led a coalition of groups concerned about waste incineration for more than four years. With the passage of SB 488, Oregon leads the nation in promoting increased understanding, monitoring and regulating of the highly hazardous pollution created when plastics, petroleum products, industrial waste and other materials are burned.

SB 426 is part of a three bill suite of environmental health bills lined up to protect children’s health from exposure to toxic chemicals. The goal of SB 426 is to improve transparency around pesticide use in Oregon schools and provide funding to support schools integrated pest management planning. When Oregon’s School Integrated Pest Management law was enacted in 2009, it did not allocate funding to the Department of Education or school districts to implement the law. As a result, many hazardous and unlawful pesticide applications have occurred on Oregon’s school campuses in the last thirteen years.
Beyond Toxics is disappointed that SB 426 failed to advance past the Joint Ways and Means Committee. SB 426 met every criteria to be a top priority for passage. We thank all our supporters for their outstanding oral and written testimonies this year and remain committed to passing this bill in the future!
