House Committee Meets TODAY On Recycling Fee Extension Bill

The House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee is now scheduled to meet TODAY to consider Senate Bill 646 (Killion-R-Delaware) would prevent a funding crisis in the state’s Recycling Program by eliminating the expiration date for the Act 101 $2 per ton recycling fee on waste disposed in Pennsylvania.
An amendment is expected to extend the $2 fee for only one year to January 1, 2021.
The meeting agenda includes the usual notice "and any other business that may come before the committee."
The meeting will be held in Room B-31 Main Capitol off the floor which means it could be called at any point after the House comes into session at 11:00 a.m. this morning.  The House Republican Caucus website often webcasts committee meetings.
Rep. John Maher (R-Allegheny) serves as Majority Chair of the House Environmental Committee and can be contacted by sending email to: jmaher@pahousegop.com.  Rep. Mike Carroll serves as Minority Chair and can be contacted by sending email to: mcarroll@pahouse.net.
