The special joint legislative commission, initially established to study and provide recommendations on protecting the environment and natural resources from plastic bottle waste, has been authorized to continue its work. The commission's reporting deadline has been extended to April 25, 2025, with an expiration date set for April 30, 2025. Additionally, the scope of the commission's study has been expanded to include not only plastic bottles but also glass, aluminum, and nips, with the aim of improving the state's recycling capabilities for these materials.

Furthermore, the resolution includes an amendment to increase the membership of the commission from eighteen to twenty members. This expansion includes appointments by the Speaker of the House and the President of the Senate. The resolution effectively rescinds the previous reporting time authorized by resolution No. 443, aligning with the new deadlines and expanded objectives of the commission. The legislative council's explanation clarifies that these changes are meant to enhance the commission's ability to address and recommend solutions for a broader range of bottle waste.
