|
1 | | AN ACT concerning safety.
|
2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
|
4 | | Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Paint |
5 | | Stewardship Act.
|
6 | | Section 5. Findings. The General Assembly finds that: |
7 | | (1) Leftover architectural paints present significant |
8 | | waste management issues for counties and municipalities and |
9 | | create costly environmental, health, and safety risks if not |
10 | | properly managed. |
11 | | (2) Nationally, an estimated 10% of architectural paint |
12 | | purchased by consumers is leftover. Current governmental |
13 | | programs collect only a fraction of the potential leftover |
14 | | paint for proper reuse, recycling, or disposal. In northern |
15 | | Illinois, there are only 4 permanent household hazardous waste |
16 | | facilities, and these facilities do not typically accept latex |
17 | | paint, which is the most common paint purchased by consumers. |
18 | | (3) It is in the best interest of this State for paint |
19 | | manufacturers to assume responsibility for the development and |
20 | | implementation of a cost-effective paint stewardship program |
21 | | that will educate consumers on strategies to reduce the |
22 | | generation of leftover paint; provide opportunities to reuse |
23 | | leftover paint; and collect, transport, and process leftover |
|
| | SB0836 Engrossed | - 2 - | LRB103 03291 CPF 48297 b |
|
|
1 | | paint for end-of-life management, including reuse, recycling, |
2 | | and disposal. Requiring paint manufacturers to assume |
3 | | responsibility for the collection, recycling, reuse, |
4 | | transportation, and disposal of leftover paint will provide |
5 | | more opportunities for consumers to properly manage their |
6 | | leftover paint, provide fiscal relief for this State and local |
7 | | governments in managing leftover paint, keep paint out of the |
8 | | waste stream, and conserve natural resources. |
9 | | (4) Similar architectural paint stewardship programs |
10 | | currently operate in 11 jurisdictions and successfully divert |
11 | | a significant portion of the collected paint waste from |
12 | | landfills. These paint stewardship programs are saving |
13 | | counties and municipalities the cost of managing paint waste |
14 | | and have been successful at recycling leftover paint into |
15 | | recycled paint products as well as other products. For |
16 | | instance, in the State of Oregon, 64% of the latex paint |
17 | | collected in the 2019-2020 fiscal year was recycled into paint |
18 | | products, and in Minnesota, 48% of the latex paint collected |
19 | | during the same period was reused or recycled into paint |
20 | | products. Given the lack of access to architectural paint |
21 | | collection programs in Illinois, especially for leftover latex |
22 | | architectural paint, and the demonstrated ability of the paint |
23 | | industry to collect and recycle a substantial portion of |
24 | | leftover architectural paint, this legislation is necessary. |
25 | | It will create a statewide program that diverts a significant |
26 | | portion of paint waste from landfills and facilitates the |
|
| | SB0836 Engrossed | - 3 - | LRB103 03291 CPF 48297 b |
|
|
1 | | recycling of leftover paint into paint and other products. |
2 | | (5) Establishing a paint stewardship program in Illinois |
3 | | will create jobs as the marketplace adjusts to the needs of a |
4 | | robust program that requires transporters and processors. |
5 | | Certain infrastructure already exists in the State, and the |
6 | | program may attract additional resources. |
7 | | (6) Legislation is needed to establish this program in |
8 | | part because of the risk of antitrust lawsuits. The program |
9 | | involves activities by competitors in the paint industry and |
10 | | may affect the costs or prices of those competitors. As |
11 | | construed by the courts, the antitrust laws impose severe |
12 | | constraints on concerted action by competitors that affect |
13 | | costs or prices. Absent State legislation, participation in |
14 | | this program would entail an unacceptable risk of class action |
15 | | lawsuits. These risks can be mitigated by legislation that |
16 | | would bar application of federal antitrust law under the |
17 | | "state action" doctrine. Under that doctrine, federal |
18 | | antitrust law does not apply to conduct that is (1) undertaken |
19 | | pursuant to a clearly expressed and affirmatively articulated |
20 | | state policy to displace or limit competition and (2) actively |
21 | | supervised by the state.
|
22 | | (7) To ensure that this defense will be available to |
23 | | protect participants in the program, it is important for this |
24 | | State's legislation to be specific about the conduct it is |
25 | | authorizing and to express clearly that the State is |
26 | | authorizing that conduct pursuant to a conscious policy |
|
| | SB0836 Engrossed | - 4 - | LRB103 03291 CPF 48297 b |
|
|
1 | | decision to limit the unfettered operation of market forces. |
2 | | It is also critical for the legislation to provide for active |
3 | | supervision of the conduct that might otherwise be subject to |
4 | | antitrust attack. In particular, the legislation must provide |
5 | | for active supervision of the decisions concerning the |
6 | | assessments that will fund the program. A clear articulation |
7 | | of the State's purposes and policies and provisions for active |
8 | | State supervision of the program will ensure that industry |
9 | | participation in the program will not trigger litigation. |
10 | | (8) To ensure that the costs of the program are |
11 | | distributed in an equitable and competitively neutral manner, |
12 | | the program will be funded through an assessment on each |
13 | | container of paint sold in this State. That assessment will be |
14 | | sufficient to recover, but not exceed, the costs of sustaining |
15 | | the program and will be reviewed and approved by the |
16 | | Environmental Protection Agency. Funds collected through the |
17 | | assessment will be used by the representative organization to |
18 | | operate and sustain the program.

13 | | independent auditor shall verify that the amount added to |
14 | | each unit of paint will cover the costs and sustain the |
15 | | postconsumer paint stewardship program. |

13 | | disapproved, the manufacturer or representative organization |
14 | | shall resubmit a plan within 45 calendar days of receipt of the |
15 | | notice of disapproval. |
16 | | (e) If a manufacturer or representative organization |
17 | | determines that the paint stewardship fee should be adjusted |
18 | | because the independent audit reveals that the cost of |
19 | | administering the program exceeds the revenues generated by |
20 | | the paint stewardship fee, the manufacturer or representative |
21 | | organization shall submit to the Agency a justification for |
22 | | the adjustment as well as financial reports to support the |
23 | | adjustment, including a 5-year projection of the financial |
24 | | status of the organization. The submission shall include a |

13 | | price of any architectural paint sold to retailers or |
14 | | distributors in the State the per container amount of the fee |
15 | | set forth in the plan or fee adjustment. If a representative |
16 | | organization is implementing the plan for a manufacturer, the |
17 | | manufacturer is responsible for filing, reporting, and |
18 | | remitting the paint stewardship fee assessment for each |
19 | | container of architectural paint to the representative |
20 | | organization. A retailer or distributor shall not deduct the |

21 | | apply to any other collection site. |
22 | | (e) Nothing in this Act shall require a retailer to track, |

11 | | thereafter, a manufacturer or representative organization |
12 | | shall submit a report to the Agency that details the |

14 | | organization's program during the prior calendar year. The |
15 | | report shall include: |
16 | | (1) a description of the methods used to collect and |
17 | | transport the postconsumer paint collected by the program; |
