California is moving ahead on implementation of its extended producer responsibility law. The state agency recently released a draft of the regulations and selected a producer responsibility organization. The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) on Jan. 8 announced that Circular Action Alliance (CAA) will serve as the producer responsibility organization (PRO). The group is also the PRO in Colorado and is part of an EPR study in Maryland. It plans to submit a plan in Oregon, as well.
