Annually assess the activities and accomplishments of the Michigan travel bureau, and convey each assessment in writing to the director of the department of commerce.

Work to the maximum extent practicable with those private associations, nonprofit corporations, organizations, or other private entities which promote tourism in this state.

Status: in_force

Sec. 11127.

The department shall submit to the legislature, after consultation with the department of public health, rules necessary to implement and administer this part. The rules required to be submitted by this subsection shall include, but not be limited to, requirements for generators, transporters, and treatment, storage, and disposal facilities.

The department may promulgate rules that exempt certain hazardous wastes and certain treatment, storage, or disposal facilities from all or portions of the requirements of this part as necessary to obtain or maintain authorization from the United States environmental protection agency under the solid waste disposal act, or upon a determination by the department that a hazardous waste or a treatment, storage, or disposal facility is adequately regulated under other state or federal law and that scientific data supports a conclusion that an exemption will not result in an impairment of the department's ability to protect the public health and the environment. However, an exemption granted pursuant to this subsection shall not result in a level of regulation less stringent than that required under the solid waste disposal act.

If an amendment to this part or the rules promulgated under this part subjects a person to a new or different licensing requirement of this part, the department shall promulgate rules to facilitate orderly and reasonable compliance by that person.

Changes in the definition of hazardous waste contained in section 11103 and the definition of treatment contained in section 11104 effected by the 1982 amendatory act that amended former Act No. 64 of the Public Acts of 1979 do not eliminate any exemption provided to any hazardous waste or to any treatment, storage, or disposal facility under administrative rules promulgated under former Act No. 64 of the Public Acts of 1979 before March 30, 1983. However, these exemptions may be modified or eliminated by administrative rules promulgated after March 30, 1983 under former Act No. 64 of the Public Acts of 1979 or under this part in order that the state may obtain authorization from the United States environmental protection agency under the solid waste disposal act, or to provide adequate protection to the public health or the environment.
