MINOR

The bill was amended to add a new definition for 'covered services' and 'de minimis producer,' expanding the regulatory scope to include service providers like collection and sorting companies. It also reorganized the section numbering to reflect these new responsibilities, ensuring the law clearly covers the entire supply chain from producer to service provider.

Scope change

The bill's scope was expanded to explicitly include service providers (such as those handling collection, transport, and sorting) under the new definition of 'covered services,' whereas the original version focused primarily on producers.

DEFINITION

Added a new definition for 'covered services' to include collection, transfer, transportation, sorting, processing, recovery, preparation, or management of packaging materials by service providers.

Added a new definition for 'de minimis producer' to establish specific thresholds for small producers, including revenue limits and employee counts for agricultural cooperatives.

REQUIREMENT

Reordered and renamed sections to include 'Service provider responsibilities' as a distinct requirement, replacing the previous 'Statewide packaging reduction, reuse, and recycling needs assessment' section title.
