§ 2-11-302. Purpose of act
A. The Legislature hereby declares that it is necessary in the public interest to prevent pollution through source reduction and encourage and promote the recycling and reuse or source reduction of hazardous waste by those manufacturing, service, and processing industries within the state whose operations produce hazardous waste and those companies engaged in the disposal of hazardous waste.
B. It is equally necessary that Oklahoma be made and kept an attractive location for continued industrial development, including the expansion of existing plants, thereby increasing employment and payrolls and upgrading the state's natural resources, both of which public purposes and objectives will simultaneously be aided and encouraged by the Recycling, Reuse and Source Reduction Incentive Act.
