The Commissioner of Environmental Protection shall not issue a permit for the construction or operation of a solid waste facility located or proposed to be constructed on a parcel of real property, the boundary of which such parcel is located within one hundred fifty feet of a parcel of property containing a housing development owned by a housing authority, unless the Commissioner of Environmental Protection determines that the proposed facility does not pose a threat to the environment of the surrounding geographic area or to public safety. The provisions of this section shall not apply to a permit to construct or operate a solid waste facility issued on or before September 30, 2008, or to the renewal of such a permit.
