The Department of Environmental Protection proposed to amend Conn. Gen. Stat. §§4.168 and 22a.6 to update the list of designated recyclable items that every person and entity in Connecticut is required to recycle. The list would be expanded to include containers of three gallons or less made of polyethylene terephthalate plastic and high-density polyethylene plastic and additional types of paper including boxboard, magazines, residential high-grade white paper, and colored ledger. The deadline for written comment is October 6, 2011. See http://www.ct.gov/dep/cwp/view.asp?A=2586&Q=486296.
