Producer Responsibility Stakeholder Meeting
Tuesday, March 07, 2023, 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM MDT
Category: Other Events

The Solid Waste and Materials Management Program of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is proposing changes to  Sections 1 and 18 of the Regulations Pertaining to Solid Waste Sites and Facilities,  6 CCR 1007-2 Part 1.

The Producer Responsibility Program for Statewide Recycling Act was signed into law in June of 2022. CDPHE is required to annually adjust by rule the dollar limitation for realized gross total revenue of producers that are exempt from the requirements of the producer responsibility program under 25-17-7 C.R.S. These adjustments are based on the U.S. bureau of labor statistics local consumer price index (CPI).

CDPHE will host a virtual stakeholder meeting on Tuesday, March 7, 2023, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. to discuss the draft regulations and gather input. Register for the meeting here. 

The draft regulations and Statement of Basis and Purpose are available on the solid waste proposed rulemaking and stakeholder processes webpage. In addition to providing comments at the upcoming meeting, stakeholders may submit comments on the proposed changes to [email protected] with the subject line “EPR Rulemaking #1 Feedback” until March 14, 2023. 

 A formal rulemaking hearing will take place on May 16, 2023. Please visit the Solid and Hazardous Waste Commission webpage for additional information.
