Massachusetts S612 mandates the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs to investigate and study the feasibility of improving statewide recycling programs and municipal waste management. The study will assess the viability of single-stream recycling, compare recycling rates of materials covered by the bottle deposit program to those not covered, and explore the potential repeal of the deposit program if recycling rates equalize. It will also evaluate the fiscal impact, barriers, existing laws, grant programs, technologies, and infrastructure needs.
