Bill > H3919

This bill establishes a recycling program in Massachusetts for boat shrink-wrap, which is the plastic wrapping used to protect boats during the winter. The bill requires all marinas, boatyards, yacht clubs, and municipal recycling centers to have collection sites for the recycling of boat shrink-wrap. The Boat Shrink-Wrap Recycling Fund is created, which will be used to provide financial assistance to municipal recycling centers for the collection and recycling of boat shrink-wrap. The fund will be funded by a 10% surcharge on all boat registration, title, and permit fees.
