Executive Summary
MASSACHUSETTS RECYCLED CONTENT LABELING BILL H 1715 OPPOSED BY CTFA at an April 19 hearing before the Joint Committee on Natural Resources and Agriculture. The measure proposes that, effective Jan. 1, 1995, all packaging sold in the state display a conspicuous label declaring the total percentage by weight of post-consumer content included in the packaging. "Instead of a reasonable integrated approach to Massachusetts solid waste management, this legislation provides a simplistic, flawed solution," the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association testified.
