 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. SANDERS -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Procurement and Contracts

 AN ACT to amend the general municipal law, in relation to authorizing
 political subdivisions to award public contracts to participants of a

 4 the provisions of section one hundred three of this [chapter] article,
 5 when purchasing products the officer, board or agency of any political
 6 subdivision or of any district therein charged with the awarding of
 7 public contracts may, wherever recycled products meet contract specifi-
 8 cations and the price of such products is reasonably competitive,
 9 purchase such products. For the purpose of this [section] subdivision
 10 and until July first, nineteen hundred ninety-six, "recycled product"
 11 shall mean any product which has been manufactured from secondary mate-
 12 rials, as defined in subdivision one of section two hundred sixty-one of

 15 sion one of section one hundred seventy-seven of the state finance law]
 16 for products available to the political subdivision or district under
 17 state contract or, if no such contract for such product is available,
 18 any product which meets the secondary material content requirements
 19 adopted by the political subdivision or district thereof with respect to
 20 a specific commodity procurement by such entity. On and after July

 4 environmental conservation law and regulations promulgated pursuant
 5 thereto. For the purpose of this [section] subdivision, "reasonably

 10 generated from the waste stream in New York state, the cost of the recy-
 11 cled product does not exceed a cost premium of fifteen percent above the
 12 cost of a comparable product that is not a recycled product.
