     114C.10 Establishment of Minnesota XL permit project. 

    Subdivision 1.    Project.  The Pollution Control Agency 
 is authorized to establish and implement a permit project under 
 sections 114C.10 to 114C.19.  The purpose of the project is to 
 work toward the policy goals listed in section 114C.01 by 
 issuing and studying the effect of permits that require 
 permittees to reduce overall levels of pollution below what is 
 required by applicable law, but which grant greater operational 
 flexibility than current law would otherwise allow.  Permits 
 issued under this project shall be called Minnesota XL permits. 

    Subd. 2.    Report to legislature.  By January 15, 1998, 
 the commissioner of the Pollution Control Agency shall report to 
 the legislature on implementation of the project, the 
 environmental results of the project, and recommendations for 
 future legislation to further the policy of this chapter.
