OFA Fiscal Note
Potential Revenue Gain
The amendment strikes the underlying bill and its associated fiscal
impact.
The amendment prohibits offering an empty beverage container to
obtain its refund value or handling fee if it is known, or should be
known, that the container was already redeemed or not sold in the state.
This results in a potential minimal General Fund revenue gain from
bottle escheats to the extent that it results in fewer out-of-state bottles
being redeemed in Connecticut.
The preceding Fiscal Impact statement is prepared for the benefit of the members of the General Assembly, solely
