AN ACT to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation  to  the
  requirement  of  deposit  initiators  to  register  beverage container
  labels

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section  1.  Subdivision  12  of  section 27-1012 of the environmental
conservation law, as added by section 8 of part SS of chapter 59 of  the
laws of 2009, is amended to read as follows:
  12. Beginning on [June first, two thousand nine] JANUARY THIRTY-FIRST,
TWO  THOUSAND  TEN  each  deposit initiator shall register the container
label of any beverage offered for sale in the state on which  it  initi-
ates  a  deposit.  Any  such  registered  container  label  shall bear a
universal product code. Such universal product code shall  be  New  York
state  specific,  in order to identify the beverage container as offered
for sale exclusively in New York state, and as  a  means  of  preventing
illegal redemption of beverage containers purchased out-of-state. Regis-
tration  must  be  on  forms  as  prescribed  by the department and must
include the universal product code for each combination of beverage  and
container  manufactured. The commissioner may require that such forms be
filed electronically. The deposit initiator shall renew a  label  regis-
tration whenever that label is revised by altering the universal product
code  or  whenever the container on which it appears is changed in size,
composition or glass color.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.


 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
