Minnesota SF5081 proposes a plastic bottle excise tax to fund water infrastructure projects.

Minnesota SF5081 proposes a plastic bottle excise tax to fund water infrastructure projects. The tax applies to bottle distributors for each taxable plastic bottle sold to a retailer in Minnesota. The tax is payable quarterly and in the form and manner prescribed by the commissioner. The proceeds from the tax are deposited in the water infrastructure account, which is established in the special revenue fund in the state treasury. The board of the Public Facilities Authority manages the account and must use the money to fund eligible projects.
