"One of the things that people don't realize is that that natural beauty, those recreational forests, they have an economic development impact for the state as well."

"There are a tremendous amount of environmental issues that are on the table."

"And secondly, I would impose a significant state landfill tipping fee and use that tipping fee to fund the billion dollar bond issue that I want to create to produce the funds for all of the environmental challenges that we just went over."

"I think a moratorium probably is legal, and we should probably for a short period of time impose a moratorium so that we don't permit any additional landfill permits for the time being, so we don't exacerbate the problem."
