Top 11 States to Implement Organics Recycling?
CA, WI, NY, MD, MA, MN, OR, PA, NC, NJ, WA 28
Mandates, Incentives — Food Waste Recycling 2009 • San Francisco: Mandatory participation in curbside composting—residential and
commercial 2011 • CT: Public Act 11-217 — commercial source separated organics 2012 • VT: Universal Recycling Law, Act 148—all organics, including residential, by 2020 2013 • CT: Public Act 13-285 (update to 2011) —Generators > 2 tons/wk within 20 miles of facility • NYC: Local Law 146-2013 — large-scale commercial food waste generators 2014 • MA: 310 CMR 19.000 regulations — Disposal ban effective 10/1/14 • CA AB 1826: Mandatory Commercial Food Waste Recycling (pending) • RI: An Act Relating to Health and Safety-Food Residuals Recycling (pending) • MD: Composting and Anaerobic Digestion Facilities-Yard Waste and Food Residuals
(pending) 29
Federal Policy TAX • Tax reform (create new tax incentives that are technology agnostic and not only electricity
based) • Tax extenders (renew the production and investment tax credits)
WORK WITH FEDERAL AGENCIES • National Biogas Roadmap • Responses to recent RFIs on DOE’s Loan Guarantee Program and Biofuels initiatives • Traditional education and outreach
