Extended Producer Responsibility for Plastics Packaging: Opportunities in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed

Chesapeake Legal Alliance and the Chesapeake Bay Commission have released a joint policy report, Extended Producer Responsibility for Plastics Packaging: Opportunities in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. The report explores policy solutions to improve the disposal and recycling of plastics packaging while reducing pollution in the Bay through Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). Highlighting successful EPR legislation in other states, the report identifies opportunities for Bay jurisdictions to adopt similar state or regional approaches to manage plastic waste more effectively.
