SB 936 Missouri Senate · 2024 Regular Session

Creates provisions relating to a post-consumer paint recycling program

This bill establishes a new program in Missouri to recycle leftover household paint, requiring paint manufacturers to fund and manage the effort. Producers must either join a nonprofit group or act alone to create a plan that sets up collection sites across the state, aiming to ensure most residents are within fifteen miles of a drop-off location. The program charges a small fee per paint container to cover operational costs, which must be verified by an independent auditor to prevent excessive pricing. Collected paint will be prioritized for reuse and recycling before being disposed of, with the state department of natural resources serving only in an oversight capacity. Retailers may host collection events only if they voluntarily agree to do so and meet specific location requirements.
