FPA Signs Coalition Letter for Hawaii’s House Bill HB 1326 (Lowen) – Packaging Waste Reduction Program Mandate

The organizations listed above are commenting with concerns on House Bill 1326 that seeks to establish a 70% packaging waste reduction program in the State of Hawaii. The above listed associations have worked successfully with legislatures across the country in response to different bills regarding packaging producer responsibility and waste reduction.
