New Brunswick’s Designated Materials Regulation under the Clean Environment Act was updated to version 2024-37 in 2024, and as of January 1, 2026, the Beverage Containers Program is now operating under this updated Regulation.
As a result of the update, Encorp was required to submit a revised stewardship plan to Recycle New Brunswick (RNB) in 2025. Encorp’s 2026–2030 Stewardship Plan has since been officially approved by RNB and is now available on RNB’s website.
Please note that none of the changes to the Regulation impact operations at RCs.
