Court rules N J waste law biased against out-of-state haulers
A federal appeals panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit reversed a district ruling, saying New Jersey flow control discriminates against out-of-state waste haulers. The court sent the case back to assess if a non-discriminatory disposal plan is possible, given a goal that no New Jersey trash leaves the state by 2000. The ruling marks a potential shift affecting taxpayers and waste generators, with Atlantic Coast Demolition & Recycling citing it as a landmark victory.
