13:1E-29.  Issuance of bonds or modification or renewal of contracts involving solid waste facility after effective date of act
    a.  The provisions of any other law to the contrary notwithstanding, no public authority, county or municipality shall issue any bonds or other obligations for the erection, construction, operation or maintenance of any solid waste facility after the effective date of this amendatory and supplementary act unless such erection, construction, operation, or maintenance  shall have been approved by the commissioner pursuant to the provisions of  section 17 of this amendatory and supplementary act; provided, however, that  nothing in this act shall be construed as to limit or alter the rights vested  by law in any public authority, county or municipality to fulfill the terms of  any agreement made with the holders of any bonds or other obligations issued by  the public authority prior to the effective date of this amendatory and  supplementary act, or as to in any way impair the rights or remedies of the  holders of such bonds.

    b.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed as to interfere with, or in  any way modify, the provisions of any contract for solid waste collection or  solid waste disposal in force in any solid waste management district upon the  effective date of this act;  provided, however, that no renewal of any such  contract upon the expiration or termination of the original term thereof, and  no new contract for solid waste collection or solid waste disposal, shall be  entered into after the effective date of this act, unless such renewal or such  new contract shall conform with the applicable provisions of the approved solid  waste management plan of the relevant solid waste management district or unless  such contract is approved by the commissioner.  In the event that no solid  waste management plan has been approved for a solid waste management district,  no contract renewal or new contract for solid waste collection or solid waste  disposal shall be entered into for a period in excess of 1 year from the date  of such contract renewal or new contract in such solid waste management district unless such a contract contains a provision for its renegotiation to  bring it into conformance with an approved solid waste management plan for that  solid waste management district upon the approval of said plan or unless such  contract is approved by the commissioner.
