CA County Adopts Paint “Take-Back” Ordinance
Continued from page 7
WS-609 provides superior
cleaning power for acrylic
latex, and vinyl acrylic
latex interior and exterior
paint. Wash inches of
hardened paint off reactors,
mixing paddles and paddle
shafts without hazardous
chemicals. No more caustic
mist, hydroblasting or
scraping with razor blades!
Fast wash turnaround
eliminates extensive
production delays. WS-609
is your proven cleaner for
tough washes!
The signage must indicate that the retail
establishment accepts and collects used
latex paints from consumers.
• If the retailer sold the new latex
paint, the retailer must accept back any
leftover paint in an amount not to
exceed the amount previously purchased. A retailer may require a proof of
purchase; however, if the retailer sells
the brand of paint that is “taken-back”
then this is considered “proof of purchase.”
• If the retailer did not sell the leftover latex paint to the consumer, the
retailer shall only be required to accept
leftover regulated paint in an amount
not to exceed two gallons of actual liquid leftover paint per-week per-con-sumer residing in San Luis Obispo
County.
• Any violation: the county may sue
to recover penalties in the amount of
$1,000 per-day for every day a violation
exists. A violation also constitutes a
misdemeanor.
It appears that the county received a
grant from the State of California to
help fund the program; however, the
details of the grant are unclear.
