S508 - 2023 Budget Technical/Other Corrections. (SL 2024-1)

Overview: Section 1.5 of S.L. 2024-1 repeals language enacted in 2023 that would have exempted the term "auxiliary container" from the definition of "solid waste" in the statutes governing the management of solid waste. As defined in the statutes, the term "auxiliary container" means "[a] bag, cup, package, container, bottle, device, or other packaging made of cloth, paper, plastic, foamed plastic, fiber, expanded plastic, cardboard, corrugated material, aluminum, glass, post-consumer recycled material, or similar coated or laminated material that is designed for the consumption, transportation, or protection of merchandise, food, or beverage at a food service facility, manufacturing facility, distribution facility, processing facility, or retail facility."

This section became effective retroactively to July 1, 2023.
