Section 9-8-1 Declaration of policy; purpose of article. It is the policy and purpose of the
Alabama Legislature to assure that the state at all times has an abundance of water, both
as to its quantity and quality, necessary to meet the requirements of an expanding population
and industrial community and, to help achieve this objective, to stimulate, sponsor and provide
for the conduct of research, investigations and experiments in the field of water and resources
as they affect water and to encourage the training of scientists in fields related to water
by aiding in establishing and supporting an institute or center at Auburn University for the
development of a water resources research program. (Acts 1963, 2nd Ex. Sess., No. 149, p.

Section 11-92B-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature makes the following findings: (1) That
the economic development of property comprising a former military installation is of vital
importance to the life, health, and welfare of the citizens of local cities and counties affected
by the base closure and the state. (2) That it is desirable to allow for the establishment
of local reuse authorities capable of managing and promoting the reuse and economic development
of military installations after the closure of the military installations. (3) That an Alabama
court has ruled that a city and county lack legislative authority to join in any entity for
the purposes provided for in this chapter. The Legislature finds that the purpose of this
chapter is to provide such authority. (4) That in consideration of the critical need for valid
and fully authorized public entities, with community involvement and notice, to develop closed
military installations, and perform environmental restoration...

Section 22-22A-2 Legislative intent and purposes of chapter. The Legislature finds the resources
of the state must be managed in a manner compatible with the environment, and the health and
welfare of the citizens of the state. To respond to the needs of its environment and citizens,
the state must have a comprehensive and coordinated program of environmental management. It
is therefore the intent of the Legislature to improve the ability of the state to respond
in an efficient, comprehensive and coordinated manner to environmental problems, and thereby
assure for all citizens of the state a safe, healthful and productive environment. (1) To
this end an Alabama Department of Environmental Management is created by this chapter within
the Executive Branch of State Government in order to effect the grouping of state agencies
which have primary responsibility for administering environmental legislation into one department,
to promote economy and efficiency in the operation and management...

Section 22-30-2 Legislative findings; purpose and intent of chapter. The Legislature finds
that the generation and management of hazardous waste is a continuing problem. Further, that
without adequate safeguards, the generation, transportation, treatment, storage and disposal
of such wastes can create conditions which threaten human health or the environment. The Legislature,
therefore, declares that in order to minimize and control any such hazardous conditions, it
is in the public interest to establish and to maintain a statewide program, administered by
the Alabama Department of Environmental Management, to provide for the safe management of
hazardous wastes. It is the intent of the Legislature that the Alabama Department of Environmental
Management seek and retain authorization to operate the State Hazardous Waste Management Program.
It is also the intent of the Legislature that the rules, regulations, guidelines and criteria
promulgated under authority of this chapter encourage...

Section 41-7A-41 Legislative findings. The following is hereby found and declared by the Legislature
of Alabama: (1) Although Alabama is filled with attractive natural resources, a growing workforce,
and other resources attractive to the entertainment industry, Alabama has not developed its
potential in terms of attracting the entertainment industry to the state by offering production
incentives for qualified productions not previously offered in Alabama. (2) Entertainment
industry incentives offered by other states attract valuable projects to their states which
stimulate local economies, use local manpower, offer other employment and entrepreneurial
opportunities for state residents, and provide public awareness of the natural resources available
in their states. (3) Because Alabama does not currently offer a viable incentive package to
the industry, Alabama cannot effectively compete with other states for attracting industry
projects and those projects locate elsewhere. (4) For...

Section 16-16A-7 Additional findings; bonds authorized; procedures. (a) The Legislature finds
that the number of students attending the several school systems located in those areas of
North Alabama that will be directly impacted by the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions
will collectively increase by an estimated 9,000 students. As a result, there will be a need
for the construction of additional school facilities as well as the renovation of existing
school facilities. The Legislature also finds that the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions
will have a positive impact on future receipts to the Education Trust Fund, as the significant
population growth in North Alabama will increase sales, income, and other tax collections.
Thus, it is an efficient use of state funds to allow such revenue growth to help pay for capital
improvement costs associated with BRAC-related school construction. (b) The Alabama Public
School and College Authority is hereby authorized to sell and issue its...
