The California Product Stewardship Council is a nonprofit association made up of representatives from cities and counties all over CA. Their mission is to shift California’s product waste management system from one focused on government funded and ratepayer financed waste diversion to one that relies on producer responsibility in order to reduce public costs and drive improvements in product design that promote environmental sustainability.

CPSC is seeking out examples not only from communities in California, but others around the world who have adopte Extended Producer Responsibility or Product Stewardship resolutions.
Communities that have implemented Advance Recycling Fees for household batteries are also of interest. A quick description of the program, and if it’s been successful, would be helpful.
