Chaptered by Secretary of State - Chapter 872, Statutes of 2026.

Sep 30, 2026

Summary

The law treats end‑of‑life solar photovoltaic modules that are not classified as hazardous waste as universal waste when they are transferred to a qualified recycler. It directs the Department of Toxic Substances Control to adopt rules that promote greater material recovery and to use a federal exclusion that already allows such transfers. Recyclers must hold the proper permits and keep detailed records of the panels they receive.
