I haven't seen one on biodegradable specifically, but how thick are the bags in use at the project building? There's a CIR that is more or less viewed as standard review criteria that allows you to exclude trash can liners that have a thickness of 0.7 mil or less. That may allow you to sidestep the issue entirely.

Well, that works. Ours are 16 microns (.016 mil) thick.
