The ministry posted proposed amendments to the Blue Box Regulation (O.Reg. 391/21) made under the Resource Recovery and Circular Economy Act, 2016 (RRCEA).
The proposed changes aim to ensure that Ontario’s blue box program remains affordable and sustainable for both residents and producers, through measures that could help curb future costs and maintain current services, while supporting the regulation’s intended outcomes of reducing and diverting waste.
The proposed amendments have been posted on the Environmental Registry of Ontario (ERO) for a 30-day consultation period (June 4, 2025 to July 4, 2025). For details about the proposal, please visit the ERO website at https://ero.ontario.ca/notice/025-0009.
If you have any questions about the proposal, please contact Marc Peverini, Manager, Resource Recovery Policy Branch at marc.peverini@ontario.ca or (416) 908-1528.
