Short Description

What is the Electronic Product Recycling Program, Chapter 173-900?

In 2006, The Washington State Legislature required the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) to make a rule to carry out a new state law (chapter 70.95N RCW). The rule, Chapter 173-900 WAC, will provide for a convenient, safe, and environmentally sound system for the collection, transportation, and recycling of covered electronic products (CEPs) throughout the state. Ecology is adopting Chapter 173-900 WAC in two phases. This notice describes the requirements adopted during Phase 1 of rule making.

A CEP or covered electronic product is a computer, laptop or portable computer, television, or monitor.

Effective Date: The effective date of this chapter is December 8, 2006.

Response to Comments: Ecology′s response to comments received during the public comment period for Phase 1 is now available. Download a copy from the link listed below.
