Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the recycling market development board provides financial
and other assistance to improve the marketing of, and to develop markets for, certain
materials recovered from solid waste. Under current law, the board provides
assistance for materials that are recovered by recycling programs operated by local
governmental units and that are required to be recycled under this state's recycling
law.
This bill requires the recycling market development board to annually
establish a list of materials recovered from solid waste that are eligible for assistance
from the board. The list must include the materials that are required to be recycled
under this state's recycling law.
