Colorado
Our compliance work in Colorado has begun and completing the Participation Agreement below is the first step to ensuring you are fully compliant with the obligations as Producers under the Colorado Producer Responsibility Program for Statewide Recycling Act.
Complying with Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) begins with collecting data related to product distribution in each state and material specifications on packaging and we have created a document that can help you with this process. You can find that document, along with other relevant information, on the Producers page.
