1. It is the purpose of the legislature of the state of New York in enacting this article to encourage the development of economical projects for the present and future collection, treatment and management of solid and hazardous waste in such a manner as will assure full consideration of all aspects of planning for proper and effective solid and hazardous waste disposal, coordinated, so far as practicable, with other related state, regional and local planning activities, and consistent with the protection of the public health, including such factors as population change, urban and metropolitan development, land use planning, water pollution and air pollution control, and the feasibility of regional resource recovery programs.

2. It is furthermore the purpose of the legislature of the state of New York to effect maximum resource recovery from solid waste on a cost-effective basis, with minimum environmental debit, energy-efficient materials recovery, prudent land use, maximum economic benefits and maximum effective private sector participation, with due concern for the primacy of the local and regional role in resource recovery procedures upon the basis of public knowledge and consent.
