Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003: manufacturer notices.
From committee: Do pass and re-refer to Com. on APPR. with recommendation: To Consent Calendar. (Ayes 7. Noes 0.) (July 1). Re-referred to Com. on APPR.
Summary
The bill amends the Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003 so that manufacturers must send notices—including brand, model and UPC—to the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle). CalRecycle will create a standard form and an online searchable database, and retailers (including marketplace facilitators) have 60 days from receipt or posting of a notice to begin collecting the required recycling fee. The measure also exempts thrift stores and delays some rules for discount stores.
