Rome committee notes bottle-bill update failed, highlights volunteer recognition and 7LA delay
Summary
The committee reported the statewide bottle-bill update failed due to industry objections, encouraged members to bring educational materials to a volunteer recognition event this Saturday, and noted the scheduled 7LA update was delayed.
Committee members reported that the recent attempt to update the bottle bill did not succeed because of objections from the bottler industry. Members encouraged attendance at a volunteer-recognition event scheduled for the coming Saturday and said Cynthia Estheimer's shoreline-education materials would be shared there.
Emilie van Eeghen announced the next camp-roads training and distributed an updated road-association contact list. The committee also noted that the 7LA update by M. Farragher was delayed and will be addressed at a later meeting.
The committee confirmed its next meeting for Wednesday, July 8, 2026, at 4:00 p.m.
