AI Summary

Allows the Department of Defense to use expeditionary solid waste disposal systems to destroy seized illicit contraband (for example counterfeit goods, unauthorized military gear, illegal drugs, and classified materials). It requires those disposal units to be equipped and made available to designated military partners, bans the use of open‑air burn pits for destroying such material, and directs funding adjustments in the Army’s FY2026 budget to pay for the systems.
