CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2017–2018 REGULAR SESSION

Senate Bill

No. 1142

Introduced by Senator Skinner

February 14, 2018

---

An act to amend Section 14500 of the Public Resources Code, relating to beverage containers.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 1142, as introduced, Skinner. Recycling: beverage containers.

Existing law establishes the California Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction Act, which requires that every beverage container sold or offered for sale in this state have a minimum refund value. The act requires a beverage distributor to pay a redemption payment to the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery for every beverage container sold or offered for sale in the state to a dealer, and requires the department to deposit those amounts in the California Beverage Container Recycling Fund.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provision naming the act.
