The Rhode Island Division of Taxation has posted an amended regulation involving the tax on hard-to-dispose materials and the tax on beverage containers.
The regulation (280-RICR-20-45-2) has been amended mainly to reflect tax increases that were enacted in July 2019. One increase was for the tax levied on each case of beverage containers sold by beverage wholesalers. The other increase involved a tax that is levied on hard-to-dispose material, such as lubricating oils, antifreeze, and tires.
The regulation, as amended, is to take full effect on March 12, 2020.
