cc -- July 20 & August 6 - Mandatory Commercial Recycling - Public Workshops

The California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) invites
you to attend informational Mandatory Commercial Recycling
Workshops held on Monday, July 20* (Northern California), and
Thursday, August 6 (Southern California). The agenda and webinar
information will be posted on the CIWMB Mandatory Commercial
Recycling web page by July 10.

As a part of implementing the Mandatory Commercial Recycling
measure (RW-3) outlined in the Climate Change Scoping Plan for
the California Global Warming Solutions Act (AB 32), the CIWMB is
hosting two informal workshops to solicit stakeholder feedback.
These workshops offer an informal opportunity to talk with CIWMB
staff about issues related to design and implementation of this
Mandatory Commercial Recycling measure. Representatives from the
CIWMB will provide background information regarding this effort,
including related legislation, related projects, and the overall
timeline. CIWMB staff will be soliciting stakeholder input on a
range of issues and conceptual regulatory language related to
topics such as thresholds, exemptions, implementation,
enforcement and costs. These details will be described in a
"white paper" that will be released and posted on the web next
week.
