(L. 1988 S.B. 535) Effective 5-05-88 (1990) Statute is a bill of attainder and special legislation where it singled out for legislative punishment those who in a specified year operated an infectious waste incinerator without particular permits but excluded others similarly situated. Statute is unconstitutional and invalid in its entirety. (Mo.banc) Bunker Res. Recycling & Rec. v. Mehan, 782 S.W.2d 381. (1990) Where statute which prohibits issuance of permit to operate infectious waste treatment facility applies only to those persons or entities who received clean air permit in 1987, statute is a prohibited special law under the Missouri Constitution, since no reasonable basis existed for differential treatment of infectious waste disposers who received clean air permits in that year.
