Partially Recirculated Draft Program Environmental Impact Report for the Adoption of Proposed Regulations for SB 54 (SCH #2024070487)
45-day Public Comment Period: August 26, 2025 – October 10, 2025
The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), as the Lead Agency, has prepared a Partially Recirculated Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for the Plastic Pollution Prevention and Packaging Producer Responsibility Act (The Act), Senate Bill (SB) 54 (Allen, Chapter 75, Statutes of 2022) Implementing Regulations (Proposed Program).
This Partially Recirculated Draft PEIR includes only the pages from the Draft PEIR that have been revised in response to public comments received on the Draft PEIR or to reflect changes in the regulatory text. These revisions do not change the overall conclusions of the environmental analysis.
CalRecycle is accepting comments on only the revised text contained in the Partially Recirculated Draft PEIR (the text that is either underlined or struck) during a 45-day review period (CEQA Guidelines, § 15088.5(f)(2).) CalRecycle will respond to comments on the revised text and is not required to respond to comments on text that remains unchanged and that was previously subject to public review.

The Draft PEIR is available for review at:
