Urges DEP and EDA to establish plastics recycling marketplace.

ACR 114 is a concurrent resolution urging New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and Economic Development Authority (EDA) to establish a plastics recycling marketplace. It directs the DEP to use funds from the State Recycling Fund for research on developing this marketplace and asks the EDA to provide funding and support for its creation. The resolution aims to increase recycling of single-use plastics - such as bottles, bags, and food containers - which currently have low recycling rates in New Jersey (6-13%) and contribute to environmental harm like microplastic pollution. This effort does not create new law but requests specific actions from state agencies to reduce plastic waste entering landfills and waterways.
