This bill will allow a local government to approve or deny an application for an integrated materials and energy recovery facility without a hearing. The approval or denial is not a land use decision. Citizens will have no voice!

HB 3971 circumvents land use regulations and due process that were put in place to protect the land in Oregon. Why open Pandoras box?

The bill undermines local control and zoning authority; bypasses environmental review and appeals; and eliminates public input.
