Illinois HB3029 regulates single-use foodware in food dispensing establishments.
HB3029 amends the Environmental Protection Act to regulate single-use foodware in Illinois. Food dispensing establishments can only provide single-use foodware upon customer request or at self-service stations. Certain items and facilities, such as those used for safety or located in airports, are exempt. Violators face civil penalties of $200 to $2,000 per day. The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency can impose these penalties after issuing at least two violation notices. The bill also establishes a Solid Waste Management Fund to manage collected fees and penalties.
