Bans plastic pellet pollution from factories and transport into waterways.
This bill would stop tiny plastic pellets from polluting our waters. It requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to create new rules within 60 days to ban these discharges. This means companies making, using, or shipping plastic pellets would need to prevent them from getting into rivers and oceans.
Currently, there are no federal rules specifically banning the discharge of pre-production plastic pellets into water. If this bill passes, the EPA would create new rules within 60 days to prohibit these discharges from factories and other businesses that handle plastic pellets, and all relevant water permits would be updated to reflect these bans.
