Oregon Consultation
Process
Circular Action Alliance (CAA) Oregon's 2028 program plan consultation webinars provide an opportunity for producers, local governments, service providers, end markets, NGOs, regulators and other interest holders to learn about proposed program updates, share feedback, and help inform the evolution of paper and packaging extended producer responsibility (EPR) under Oregon's Recycling Modernization Act (RMA).
Since the launch of the RMA, CAA has engaged producers, local governments, service providers, end markets, community organizations, regulators, and other interest holders to help inform program implementation and continuous improvement.
As CAA begins development of the Oregon program plan for 2028–2032, we are launching topic-based consultation webinars to gather feedback on proposed approaches, implementation strategies, and program priorities. These consultations are an opportunity for interest holders to learn about key program elements, provide input on future program direction, and support a transparent and inclusive planning process that reflects a broad range of perspectives.
The input received will help inform development of the next Oregon program plan and strengthen alignment with interest holders ahead of plan finalization. This consultation process builds on the foundation established through Oregon's first program plan and supports the continued evolution of the recycling system under the RMA.
