In this midsummer edition of All Wrapped Up, we discuss a blockbuster ending to this year’s state legislative sessions, culminating in the official launch of the first packaging EPR program in U.S. history; the passage of packaging EPR in two more states; an unprecedented statutory “fix” to the nation’s first packaging EPR law; two new EPR needs assessment laws; and yet another aborted attempt at packaging EPR in New York. We also take a deeper dive – in our Issue in Focus section – into whether the new and (ostensibly) improved SB54 rulemaking will result in cost savings as opposed to cost shifting.
