Many types of
electronic
products used in
the workplace
and homes
contain
hazardous
substances like
lead and
mercury. When
these products
reach the end of
their useful
lives or become
obsolete, some
are considered
hazardous waste.
In general,
hazardous waste
may not be
discarded in the
regular trash.
Instead, it must
be sent to a
facility that
has a permit for
treatment
(including
recycling),
storage, or
disposal.
Electronic
hazardous wastes
(e-wastes) are
different from
industrially
generated
hazardous wastes
in that almost
every
individual,
institution and
business
generates them.
Proper
management and
recycling of
e-waste poses
lower risks than
managing many
industrial
hazardous
wastes.
How do I Know if
my E-Waste is
Hazardous?
  
State
regulations
require the
generator of a
waste to
determine if it
is a hazardous
waste (this
requirement is
found in section
66262.11 of
title 22 of the
California Code
of Regulations).
Wastes are
hazardous waste
when they
exhibit one or
more of the
following
characteristics:
toxicity,
ignitability,
corrosivity or
reactivity. Many
electronic
wastes exhibit
the toxicity
characteristic
due to the lead
content as well
as other heavy
metals.
In addition
to the four
hazardous waste
characteristics,
DTSC has listed,
in regulation,
specific wastes
that are
presumed to be
hazardous and
must be managed
as hazardous
waste. The law
does allow
individuals to
test specific
devices to
determine
whether or not
they are
hazardous.
However, in the
absence of
testing, all
wastes listed by
DTSC are
presumed to be
hazardous.
Several
categories of
e-waste are
included in the
list; these are
listed below
under the
heading "How do
I Know if my
E-Waste is
covered by the
Electronic Waste
Recycling Act?"
Law, Tests, Fact
Sheets, and
Reports on
E-Wastes
How do I Know if
my E-Waste is
Covered by the
Electronic Waste
Recycling Act
(and therefore
needs to be
handled
differently?)
As part
of its implementation of the Electronic Waste Recycling Act. DTSC has
tested certain types of electronic devices to determine which would be
hazardous waste when discarded; only video display devices that DTSC
"determines are presumed to be, when discarded, a hazardous waste" are
potentially covered by the Act. Currently these devices include:
-
cathode
ray
tube
(CRT)
devices
(including
televisions
and
computer
monitors;
-
LCD
desktop
monitors;
-
laptop
computers
with
LCD
displays;
-
LCD
televisions;
and
-
plasma
televisions.
-
portable
DVD
players
with
LCD
screens
(added
December
31,2006)
Note:
Many electronic wastes
not
covered
by the Electronic Waste Recycling Act are still considered hazardous
wastes and may not be discarded in the regular trash.
If a consumer purchases a "covered electronic device," the
retailer may require the consumer to pay the recycling fee on the
device. When the consumer discards a "covered electronic device," it
becomes a hazardous waste, called a "covered electronic waste."
Qualified e-waste collectors and recyclers may receive cost
reimbursement from the fund established from the recycling fees for
their management of covered electronic wastes. (Since portable DVD
players with LCD screens greater than four inches in size did not become
"covered electronic devices" until December 31, 2006, they are not
subject to the EWaste recycling fee until on and after July 1, 2007.) |
