FPA Submits Comments in Support of Removing Pyrolysis and Advanced Recycling from the Definition of Solid Waste Federal Register Notice 2026-05491

The Flexible Packaging Association (FPA) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the Federal Register Notice 2026-05491: Standards for Air Curtain Incinerators That Only Burn Wood Wastes, Yard Wastes and Clean Lumber; Provision for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration Units: Temporary Use Incinerators and Air Curtain Incinerators Used in Disaster Recovery. While we recognize this regulation addresses much more than the discussion on the definition of “municipal waste combustion unit” via pyrolysis found in Section VI, we are limiting our comments to this section as its relevance is of utmost importance to our industry.
