Zero Waste and Recycling Interim Study Committee considers four draft bills

The Zero Waste and Recycling Interim Study Committee announced four bills they will consider on October 22 at their final meeting. At that final meeting, the committee will vote on which two bills to approve as the bills that will be expedited through the legislative process when the session begins January 8, 2020. The two bills that do not come from the committee can be introduced during the regular session by individual legislators (they would not have the backing of the committee and would not be expedited).

The bills under consideration are:

  • Incentivize Development Recycling End Markets (Recycle Colorado bill concept)
  • Beverage Container Redemption & Refunds
  • Develop A Statewide Organics Management Plan (Recycle Colorado bill concept)
  • CDPHE Increase Public Awareness Of Recycling

The drafts of the four bills requested by the Zero Waste and Recycling Interim Study Committee can be found on the following webpage: http://leg.colorado.gov/node/1652171/
