Upcoming Webinar on SB 54 Single Use Packaging Law

SB 54 (Allen) of 2022 requires manufacturers of single use packaging and food service ware to take responsibility for the management and recycling of the products they introduce into the stream of commerce. The draft regulatory text can be found here.   

CalRecycle has not yet initiated the formal rulemaking process but is expected to do so in the near future.  That action will trigger a 45-day comment period during which RCRC and other stakeholders will be able to provide formal comments, express concerns, and suggest modifications to the proposed regulations.  

The California Resource Recovery Association (CRRA) will be holding a two-hour webinar on January 25, 2024 from 12-2pm.  Speakers include Timothy Burroughs (Alameda County Waste Management Authority), Tedd Ward (Del Norte Solid Waste Management Authority), Doug Kobold (California Product Stewardship Council), and Kyra Seymour (Del Norte Solid Waste Management Authority).  Register here.
