Opinion
Opinion
Stein, J.
Appellants brought an action challenging the adoption by respondent County of Solano of a hazardous waste management plan (the Plan) and certification of a final environmental impact report (FEIR). The trial court found that respondent had complied with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Pub. Resources Code, § 21000 et seq.) and the Tanner Act (Health & Saf. Code, § 25135 et seq. and § 25199 et seq.) in adopting the Plan and certifying the FEIR, and rendered judgment for the County; the trial court also dismissed appellant’s action against the DHS.
The Plan
The Plan adopted by respondent was the culmination of an effort which commenced in March of 1987 with a resolution by the board of supervisors to “prepare a county hazardous waste management plan” for submittal to the DHS for approval pursuant to the Tanner Act. The stated purpose of this Plan was to review and analyze existing hazardous waste disposal facilities, determine the need for additional or expanded facilities, and identify “site selection criteria for new or expanded . . . facilities, to accommodate projected needs.”
