The bill mandates the EPA to study and report on establishing a national database for recyclable materials, recycling infrastructure, and landfill diversion. It aims to identify regions with limited recycling access, analyze recycling facility capacity, and propose solutions to improve access. Within 18 months, the EPA must submit a report to Congress with recommendations for the database. If found feasible, the EPA will establish and maintain a standardized national database within a year. The bill defines terms like "Administrator" and "extended producer responsibility program." This bill seeks to address issues related to recycling infrastructure and material recovery nationwide.
