The
Electronic Equipment Recycling Reuse Act
As
of April 1, 2011 a new law goes into affect called, “The
Electronic Equipment Recycling Reuse Act”, the law requires
manufacturers to establish a convenient system for the collection,
handling and recycling or reuse of electronic waste. This law was
put into place so that every New Yorker will have the opportunity to
recycle their electronic waste in an environmentally responsible
manner. This law requires the manufacturers of all electronic
equipment to be responsible for implementing an acceptable program
for the electronic waste, such as televisions, computers and
components, fascimile machines, VCR’s, digital video recorders,
portable digital music players, DVD player, electronic or video game
consoles, printers.
