An Act maintaining a statewide car seat recycling program
This bill amends Massachusetts state law to require the Department of Environmental Protection to maintain a program for recycling child car seats. The legislation authorizes the department to create state, local, or regional recycling initiatives and allows it to award grants to municipalities that want to start their own projects. Additionally, the department can partner with private organizations to help develop and run these recycling efforts. The law directly affects the state department responsible for environmental resources and local communities seeking to dispose of used car seats properly.
