To provide a tax credit for businesses who utilize recycling programs or recycling facilities

HB 2569 creates a tax credit against West Virginia's Business and Occupation tax for businesses that recycle. It directly affects businesses subject to this tax by allowing them to reduce their tax liability based on their recycling activities, with credit amounts determined by business type and the specific products recycled. The bill establishes this credit under new Section 11-13-3h of the West Virginia Code, requiring the Tax Commissioner to develop implementing regulations. The credit applies to businesses using recycling programs as defined in §22-15-1 et seq. The bill was introduced on February 18, 2025, and referred to the House Finance Committee.
