This chapter may be cited as the 'Chemical Weapons Destruction Limitation Act.'

The Legislature finds that the sense of the Anniston community is that the continued storage of the Army's chemical stockpile at the Anniston Army Depot poses a risk that the community wants eliminated in a safe and efficient manner. The current Army disposal plan poses a much lower risk to the community than does the continued storage, stated by the National Research Council (NCR) in its 1994 study, but the community desires to ensure that no other chemical stockpile problems be added to the Army's disposal plan.

The Army, having committed to the safe and complete disposal of the Anniston Army Depot stockpile, shall only process and destroy at its Anniston Demilitarization Facility the stocks stored there as of the date of its contract with a commercial company to do so. No other materials, except those materials used to demonstrate the performance of incinerators and pollution abatement systems during a trial burn demonstration, and the resulting wastes generated by the Anniston facility, may be processed in the Anniston facility during its lifetime.

The Army shall comply with its stated and written plan to close the demilitarization facility in accordance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), once the current stockpile at the Anniston Army Depot has been completely and safely destroyed.
