Summary

The law creates a definition for “preproduction plastic materials” and makes it illegal to discard them at any location that does not hold a Certificate of Designation to operate as a solid‑waste disposal site. It repeals an earlier statute and will take effect on August 12, 2027, unless a referendum is filed, in which case it will wait for voter approval in the November 2026 election. The measure targets manufacturers and waste handlers to ensure proper disposal of plastic waste.
