ITEMS SCHEDULED FOR PUBLIC HEARING

Informational Hearing - Medical Waste Incinerators  
For the purpose of inviting representatives from the Department of Public Works, the  
Baltimore Health Department, Baltimore City hospitals, institutions that make use of  
medical waste incinerators in Baltimore City, and any other relevant stakeholders to  
discuss: (1) which local hospitals send waste to medical incinerators in Baltimore City  
and which local hospitals do not; (2) what, if any, oversight mechanisms these  
hospitals have in place over their hazardous waste disposal service contracts; (3) the  
sustainability and environmental justice commitments local hospitals have made and  
how those commitments may conflict with service contracts the hospitals have with  
medical waste incineration companies that have long histories of environmental  
violations; and (4) what hospitals intend to do in the immediate future to mitigate the  
negative effects of their medical waste disposal on Baltimore’s communities.
