Relates to requiring food service establishments to permit the use of reusable beverage and food containers provided by customers

The definition of 'Food service establishment' was changed from a general public place to specifically include places where prepared food is sold for individual portion service on or off the premises, while excluding retail food stores.

The obligation for establishments to accept customer containers was strengthened from 'shall not refuse' to 'shall instead serve,' making the service mandatory rather than just non-refusal.

Safety requirements for accepting customer containers were simplified from a detailed list of factors to a 'reasonable visual inspection' of cleanliness, size, and material.

A new 'takeout opt-in' section allows establishments to voluntarily serve food in customer-provided containers for takeout orders upon request.

New authority was granted to the commissioner to create specific rules and regulations for safely handling customer-provided containers and to incorporate these standards into health inspections.

New clauses were added to protect establishments from liability regarding foodborne illness or contamination claims when they accept customer containers in good faith.

The notification signage requirement was updated to apply to food service that serves food in single-use containers, rather than just 'disposable food service containers'.
