USCC sent this letter with comments on the 2019 New York State Food Scraps Recycling Law, which is set to go into effect on January 1, 2022. When passed, the law carved out allowances for mixed waste composting due to an already-operating facility in Delaware County; the carve-out could discourage source separation of organics collected under the laws provisions. In the letter, the USCC urged regulators to adjust language to encourage generator source separation and will monitor the law’s implementation.
