The USCC is supporting bills in Maryland to require commercial generators of more than two tons of organic residuals to reduce, rescue, compost or digest those residuals beginning January 2023 provided there is a compost facility within 30 miles of their location. The bills waiver provisions.
Also in Maryland, the USCC is supporting legislation that would prohibit homeowners associations from restricting composting on private property and condominiums from prohibiting the use of common space by residents for compostable collection services. Visit this page to see USCC’s comments.
