Vermont H0319 amends environmental regulations concerning paint stewardship, battery management, river corridor development, wetlands, and flood.

Vermont H0319 amends environmental regulations to establish a Paint Product Stewardship Program, requiring producers to manage postconsumer architectural paint through collection, recycling, and disposal. It extends the deadline for a battery stewardship assessment and requires a report on end-of-life management for certain battery types. The bill also revises rules for development in mapped river corridors, including education and outreach efforts. Additionally, it mandates a net gain of wetlands through restoration and requires compensation for adverse impacts to wetlands.
