Section 2-6A-1 Declaration of policy. It is the finding of the Legislature that, despite the
fact that agriculture has been and continues to be the backbone of the economy of the State
of Alabama, increasing numbers of the state's farmers and agricultural businessmen are losing
their livelihood due to conditions beyond their control caused by the current economic situation
in agriculture and certain structural changes that are occurring in the economy of both the
state and the United States. A crisis has developed in the state's agricultural sector that
is not and cannot be met with existing programs and resources, with the result that more and
more Alabama farmers and agricultural businessmen are being forced to leave farming or to

Section 22-21-278 Kidney disease treatment centers in certain municipalities exempted from
certificate of need requirement. (a) The Legislature hereby finds and declares that it is
in the best interest of the state and its residents for kidney disease treatment centers to
be established and operated throughout the state so that any patient needing such treatment
will be able to utilize a hemodialysis unit located within a reasonable distance from his
or her home; that a shortage of kidney disease treatment centers now exists in the rural areas
and smaller municipalities in the state; that the existence of the certificate of need requirement
with respect to new kidney disease treatment centers is a factor that hinders the establishment
of new treatment centers in the less heavily-populated areas of the state; that, in order
to encourage and facilitate the development of new kidney disease treatment centers in those
areas of the state where such centers are most needed, it is rational,...

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

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.
