Section 22-35-1 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature of the State of Alabama finds
and declares that certain lands of Alabama constitute unique and delicately balanced resources;
that the protection of these resources is vital to the economy of this state; and that the
preservation of waters is a matter of the highest urgency and priority as these waters provide
a primary source of potable water in this state; that such use can only be served effectively
by maintaining the quality of waters in as close to a comparable previous condition as possible,
taking into account multiple use accommodations necessary to provide the broadest possible
promotion of public and private interests. The Legislature further finds that where contamination
of soils or waters has occurred, remedial measures have often been delayed for long periods

Section 25-8-32 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature has found that Alabama law
has not kept pace with federal standards regulating the employment of minors to the extent
that it has become increasingly difficult for employers to comply with conflicting state and
federal child labor requirements. Accordingly, numerous changes are necessary to make the
child labor laws of Alabama compatible with the United States Department of Labor regulations
governing the employment of minors in nonagricultural occupations. Similarly, there is also
a need to remove anachronistic language and make clarifications to existing standards. In
view of the foregoing findings, the Legislature through this chapter intends to do all of
the following: (1) Conform with 17 federal hazardous orders. (2) Remove exemptions for domestic
service and the grading or handling, or both, of agricultural products. (3) Add a restriction
for occupations which involve working at heights exceeding six feet, as well...
