    Year 2 Implementation Report

    Delivering our Message: Court Communication Plan for the Judicial Branch YEAR TWO REPORT Prepared by: Florida Supreme Court Public Information Office Submitted July 12, 2018 Craig Waters, Director Tricia Knox Emilie Rietow & By the Florida Court Public Information Officers, Inc. Year Two Implementation Report Background: Delivering Our Message / Court Communication Plan for the Judicial Branch of Florida took effect in January 2016 after unanimous approval by the Florida Supreme Court in December 2015. The plan was developed with input from judges, court public information officers (PIOs), other court staff from around the state, and experts from the private sector. It was submitted to the Court by the Judicial Management Council, a longstanding state court advisory body that includes judges, lawyers, and non-lawyers. The JMC designed the plan to help Florida’s courts, no matter what their size or local circumstances, in improving communications with all the people they serve. Implementing the plan today involves court staff in the twenty Judicial Circuits, the five District Courts of Appeal, the Office of the State Courts Administrator (OSCA), and the Florida Supreme Court. These staff are members of a statewide nonprofit professional association, the Florida Court Public Information Officers (FCPIO), which was given responsibility to implement the plan. FCPIO actively participated in preparing this report. Members and other court staff meet annually for an educational conference and hold regular monthly conference calls to work together to advance communications goals outlined in the plan. FCPIO’s last annual conference was in April 2018, and it has continued to hold monthly meetings since that time discussing issues outlined in this report.

Consumer Watchdog California Recycling Study Trashed: How California Recycling Failed And How To Fix It EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The California bottle deposit law was designed to recycle billions of empty glass, plastic and metal beverage containers every year, cut pollution, and save energy. Today, Consumer Watchdog finds that the California bottle deposit system is imploding and about to collapse without immediate and fundamental reform. OVERVIEW OF PROBLEM • Redemption centers are closing at an alarming rate and consumers are unable to get back their $1.5 billion worth of nickel and dime deposits they pay each year. • Lack of access to redemption centers has increased unclaimed deposits to approximately $360 million. Beverage distributors, retailers, and waste haulers further siphon off hundreds of millions of dollars that should go to consumers. • Increased contamination of the waste stream by curbside waste haulers has foreign markets for our recycling materials shutting their doors. • Supermarket chains and other beverage retailers legally obligated to be recyclers of last resort are refusing to do so. • The state regulator, CalRecycle, is ineffective, and has actually given retailers more than 1,200 exemptions from recycling responsibilities in the last several decades. Waste haulers are cashing in on hundreds of millions of dollars-worth of consumer deposits annually for picking up these empties, contaminating them at high rates, and then collecting separate fees from government entities for landfilling and incineration.

I'm sorry about this, but could you please check around your seats -- this puzzle -- it's a prop for the final scene -- we're missing a piece. It looks like this -- (He picks up a couple of puzzle pieces from a large cable-spool table.) Could be back that way. (He points; audience shuffles around looking.)
