With statewide restrictions on single-use plastic bags and plastic straws in place, state lawmakers this year will consider a sweeping measure that would force a major reduction of all other single-use plastics.

Meanwhile, a comprehensive bill addressing ocean concerns — with language still being developed — will call for improving the quality of ocean water and wetlands, better salmon habitats, and rules that would protect whales from being hit by ships. “Those will be the major bills for the environmentalists,” said Dan Jacobson, Sacramento lobbyist of Environment California.

But those proposals are hardly the only environmental issues on lawmakers’ minds. Other potential legislation ranges from a move to end the practice of pumping treated sewage into the ocean to a law that would eliminate most paper shopping receipts to a smoking ban on all California state beaches. While Friday, Feb. 22, was the last day to submit bills for the current session, legislators still can rewrite the proposals’ language or even gut existing bills and substitute different measures in their place.

But most major legislation is now on the table in some form. Here are eight environmental bills to watch:

SB 1: Environmental protections. Sponsored by Sen. Toni Atkins, D-San Diego. Intended to address concerns that the federal government is rolling back or weakening key federal provisions, this bill calls on the state to memorialize federal environmental and worker safety standards in place on Jan. 1, 2017, and enforce them under state law.

SB 8, AB 1718: Ban smoking on state beaches. Sen. Steve Glazer, D-Orinda, and Assemblyman Marc Levine, D-Marin County. Jerry Brown vetoed this proposal the past two years but now there’s a new governor.

SB 54, AB 1080: Single-use plastic reduction. Sen. Ben Allen, D-Santa Monica, and Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, D-San Diego. While other legislation has focused on specific plastics, including grocery bags and straws, these companion bills would establish a comprehensive plan to “reduce and recycle” 75 percent of single-use plastics by 2030, and ensure that all single-use packaging and products are either reusable, recyclable or compostable. Right now, less than 15 percent of single-use plastic in the state is recycled, according to Allen.

SB 33: Solid waste reduction. Sen. Nancy Skinner, D-Berkeley. Current language says this would “address the collapse of foreign recycling markets by reducing solid waste generation, encourage the transition to compostable or recyclable materials, and fostering domestic recycling markets.” Specific requirements and incentives are not yet detailed.

SB 69: Climate change and ocean resiliency. Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco. This bill has not yet had its core language finalized. However, Coastkeeper Executive Director Sean Bothwell, who is collaborating on the measure, said the wide-ranging proposal would aim to improve water quality to prevent local ocean acidification, improve coastal habitats (particularly wetlands, kelp and eel grass), sequester carbon, identify marine areas that are particularly vulnerable to climate change, improve salmon habitats and prevent whales from being struck by ships.

SB 332: Wastewater recycling. Sen. Robert Hertzberg, D-Van Nuys. To promote reuse of wastewater, this bill calls for treatment plants to reduce their ocean discharge by 50 percent by 2030 and by 95 percent by 2040.

AB 161: Paper shopping receipts. Assemblyman Philip Ting, D-San Francisco. Beginning in 2022, this would require stores to give shoppers only email or text receipts unless a paper receipt was specifically requested.

AB 176: Green jobs. Assemblywoman Sabrina Cervantes, D-Riverside. This would extend tax breaks for green businesses – from 2021 to 2031.
