## Not yet published for Maine

- [The fee schedule source (Maine stewardship organization (not yet contracted)) in Maine: not yet published. Reason: No per-material producer rates exist: Maine DEP has not yet contracted a stewardship organization (SO) and is reassessing the schedule. The DEP page lists one rate, a flat fee of $500 per ton for producers supplying under 15 tons of packaging material a year, but does not say whether a ton is a US short ton or a metric tonne, so it is not stored as a rate.](#fee-source-US-ME-2026)
- [The report format specification (Maine producer packaging report by material class (interim)) in Maine: not yet published. Reason: The field list is set by Maine rule 06-096 Ch. 428 §9(B): an annual producer report due May 31, by packaging material type (Appendix A), with weights to the nearest kilogram or pound. No file template or portal exists because no stewardship organization has been contracted. Instica's file is its own working layout and does not yet reproduce the Appendix A types.](#format-US-ME-so-interim)
- [Whether affiliates are counted together in Maine: not yet published. Reason: The definition does not state whether affiliates aggregate.](#affiliates)
- [The material categories in Maine: not yet published. Reason: Appendix A was not read; the coarse Instica classes are used until it is captured.](#categories)
- [Labelling in Maine: not yet published. Reason: No producer on-pack labelling mandate was found in the section read.](#labelling)
- [Languages in Maine: not yet published. Reason: No filing language stated.](#languages)
- [The revenue basis in Maine: not yet published. Reason: Revenue basis for producer scope beyond the exemption threshold was not separately stated.](#revenue-scope)

## How these updates are dated

Every change log is built from the verified records themselves, newest first, so each line has a source address and a retrieval date. The chart counts verified records as they were dated, and the table by date gives the same counts by day.

Some records carry a date from which they apply. That date comes from the source, not from us, and a date in the future means the rule is published but not yet in force. Bills are tracked separately from law: a bill creates no obligation, and its stage is recorded as of the date retrieved.

Each entry is dated by the day we retrieved its source, which is the day a person last confirmed the record against the primary document. It is not the date the rule changed. When a source changes, the record is re-verified and its date moves forward.

A record that is not yet published has no verified source. It is listed with the reason instead of a value, and it leaves that list the day a primary source is found. Subscribe to the feed to see entries as they are dated.
