Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The CAP Act of 2024 amends the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990 to establish a federal regulatory system for compostable agricultural packaging claims. The bill creates a framework whereby the Secretary of Agriculture recognizes accreditation bodies, which in turn accredit third-party certification bodies to authorize compostable claims and composting instructions on consumer product packaging. Manufacturers may only make compostable claims if authorized by an accredited third-party certification body, and the bill establishes model accreditation criteria to ensure such claims are not false or misleading.
