I reached out to the upper management of Shaw's supermarket in Barrinton, RI today to ask if I could interview them regarding the township's plastic bag ban which has been in place for a number of years now. The assistant manager I spoke to was happy to speak to me and h put me in touch with the right individual within the company. I am expecting to hear from them tomorrow and will hopefully be driving there to shoot an interview soon. I'm also planning to contact Barrington's legislature to begin learning how they went about implementing this ban so that we can use them as a model to get such a ban passed throughout the are and eventually the entire northeast. Keep checking back as this mission unfolds and the story develops.
