How does the WMMFA intend to use existing recycling and collection infrastructure in Washington to handle CEPs?
The operational aspects of the Standard Plan are designed around the use of existing infrastructure in the state wherever and whenever possible. Capacity to handle the collection, transportation, and processing of the additional volumes expected when the plan is operational will be addressed by a combination of free market forces and environmental stewardship, to ensure compliance with the laws at a reasonable cost to manufacturers paying for the plan operations. Q: How might the differences among state electronic waste recycling laws impact what WMMFA is doing in Washington State: A: Legislation to address recycling of electronic waste has been and continues to be discussed at the federal level, although the WMMFA does not believe specific national legislation is pending at this time. In the meantime, the states will continue to develop their own laws in this area, which may or may not resemble Washington’s new law.
