As reported by PlasticsNews.com, beginning on Jan. 1, 2013, businesses in Concord, MA, will no longer be able to sell 1-L or smaller PET bottles.
The bylaw, which the article says is believed to be the first ban of PET bottles in the nation, is still subject to review by the state attorney general’s office. “It passed 403-364 during Concord’s open town meeting, according to Town Manager Christopher Whelan,” says PlasticsNews.
