2010 Los Angeles County Bag Ordinance

This ordinance prohibits stores from providing single use plastic carryout bags to customers.

Furthermore, stores must report monthly the number of recyclable bags sold to customers, the monies generated from such sales, and any efforts the store has undertaken to promote the use of reusable bags.
