ALA Hosts Member Forum on Product Packaging Laws

Understanding extended producer responsibility laws

ALA's next member forum will be hosted Wednesday, May 15, at 12 p.m., CDT. This forum, designed for manufacturer members, will cover the extended producer responsibility laws related to plastic and packaging, which are becoming commonplace.

Rachel Michelin, president, of the California Retailers Association, will lead the forum with a brief presentation, followed by an all-member open discussion. Participants will hear firsthand about California's SB 54, the state law that implemented goals for reducing packaging and packaging waste and shifted the burden of responsibility away from the consumers and to the producer.
