Economic Impact Survey: Rigid Plastic Packaging Container Regulations

Please note that the surveys initially posted had a minor typographical error. While the description of the proposed revisions are correct, the cited reference number of the regulations was off. The error has been corrected.

Introduction

The California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) is in the process of revising regulations governing the Rigid Plastic Packaging Container (RPPC) Program. As part of the process, CIWMB is asking businesses to calculate the economic impact on their operations from the proposed revisions to the RPPC regulations.

All responses must be completed by November 14, 2008.

What Your Information Will Do

An analysis of survey responses will be included by staff as part of the data submitted to the CIWMB for consideration. Your input is extremely valuable, and the information provided on each survey will be kept confidential. Survey responses will be collectively analyzed to summarize potential fiscal impacts of the proposed regulations on California's business community.

Your answers must only reflect costs due to proposed changes to the RPPC regulations, and not costs for meeting the existing requirements. You can review the proposed revisions (Word, 470 KB) to the RPPC regulations before completing the survey.
