AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

EPR Legal Battle: The plastics fight heats up as the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors pushes new moves against California’s extended producer responsibility rules, with an Oregon ruling looming and California’s SB 54 enforcement now in the crosshairs. Landfill Tech & Emissions: Loci Controls is rolling out AI-assisted landfill emissions monitoring, using real-time well data to flag what operators should act on. Local Collection Changes: Mount Joy Township, Pennsylvania, is switching trash haulers starting Jan. 1 after complaints about missed pickups and broken recycling bins, with new toter sizes and a contract awarded to a different bidder. Recycling Rules in Practice: A UK “binman” explains why overflowing bins often aren’t collected when lids don’t close—because council rules, not crews, set the limits. Battery Safety Regulation: Health Canada is reviewing feedback on possible mandatory safety requirements for lithium-ion batteries amid rising fire incidents. E-Waste Gold Recovery: Researchers report electricity-driven extraction of gold from old electronics using a charged molecule, aiming to cut harsh chemicals and make recovery more feasible. Flood Debris Pickup: Bridgeport, West Virginia schedules a one-day curbside collection for flood-related debris. Food Waste Recycling Push: A TMC incentive program urges school students to collect plastic waste and boost recycling participation. Packaging Responsibility Dispute: A stretch-film disagreement under the EU’s PPWR could shift who carries manufacturer duties and reporting obligations. Water-Waste Link: Portsmouth Water residents fear a reservoir consent order could strip their access rights, raising stakes for local supply reliability.
