Summary
The bill adds a new incentive program that rewards curbside recyclers and other certified entities for delivering high‑quality, contamination‑free glass beverage containers. Payments of up to $60 per ton come from the state’s Beverage Container Recycling Fund and can also go to manufacturers that use the glass for other products, such as fiberglass insulation. The goal is to improve the marketability of recycled glass and encourage better sorting.
