Legislative News on Packaging Reform
Since the CRRA 2019 conference, several legislative fixes have been proposed to help resolve the growing packaging crisis. Whether the fix comes from the statewide initiative that Mr. Potashner will describe, or though several legislative bills currently working their way through the California state legislature, the recycling industry is looking for answers. Mr. Kobold's presentation will provide an update on several current legislative bills, SB 54 / AB 1080 & SB 372 for example, and any current bills not yet named at the time of this submission. He will provide details about each bill, along with the pros and cons of each.
