New Law Imposes Registration Requirement in 2024 for Businesses Using Single-Use Packaging - Penalties for Violations Range from $50,000 Daily Fine to Bans

The California Chamber of Commerce is rolling out FREE webinars for its local chamber partners and local chamber members addressing the new SB 54 regulations that could significantly impact businesses in 2024. Passed in 2022, SB 54 (Allen) requires all companies selling products in single-use packaging to register with a Producer Responsibility Organization or PRO. This webinar will help keep the business community up to date on how to comply with these new rules.  SB 54 mandates all companies selling products in single-use packaging to register with a PRO. Non-compliance isn't an option: failing to register with a PRO risks a ban and potential fines up to $50,000 per day.

 

Register for either of these dates:

Wed., Dec 6 @ 9:00 AM -- Register Here

Mon., Dec 11 @ 9:00 AM -- Register Here
