Heidi Sanborn is an independent consultant working half time as the Executive Director of the California Product Stewardship Council (CPSC).

Ms. Sanborn’s work related to Product Stewardship includes facilitation of the National Paint Product Stewardship Initiative, authoring of two documents in 2007: Sonoma Extended Producer Responsibility Implementation Plan (2/07) and the Contractor’s report to the CIWMB titled “Framework for Evaluating End-of-Life Product Management Systems in California” (7/07).

Ms. Sanborn has traveled in 2008 to British Columbia Canada and to Belgium in March of 2009 to study existing Product Stewardship systems for beverage containers, packaging, and e-waste. She has presented on the EPA’s national webinar on packaging and to the Ocean Protection Council of California on EPR and packaging.
