A bill to require the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency to promulgate certain limitations with respect to pre-production plastic pellet pollution, and for other purposes

**Who it affects:** - Plastic manufacturers and companies that transport plastic pellets - Communities near plastic production facilities - Workers in the plastic industry - Anyone concerned about plastic pollution in waterways and ecosystems **What would change:** Companies would need to meet new federal standards to reduce plastic pellet waste and spills. This could require updated equipment, handling procedures, or cleanup protocols. The rules would aim to prevent plastic pellets from entering rivers, oceans, and other environments where they can harm wildlife. The bill is currently being reviewed in congressional committee and has not yet become law.
