Stakeholders: Staying Apprised and Involved

The Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003 (SB 20, Sher, Chapter 526, Statutes of 2003) requires the California Integrated Waste management Board (CIWMB) and the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) to implement the various aspects of the law in coordination with a range of stakeholders.

There are multiple ways to stay apprised and involved in the development and implementation of this landmark program:

Attend Stakeholder Workshops
The CIWMB and DTSC hold workshops and hearings to inform interested parties, learn from stakeholders and consider issues relating to the implementation of the Act. Information on upcoming and past meeting is available.

Subscribe to "California E-Waste Updates: An Electronic Newsletter"
The CIWMB publishes a listserv newsletter aimed at keeping stakeholders informed. Instructions on how to subscribe, as well as an archive of all past missives, are available.

Submit Written Input
The CIWMB and DTSC are interested in hearing from interested parties, whether it's suggestions or questions.  The best e-mail address to use for general communication is ewaste@calepa.ca.gov; program staff will make sure the input or inquiry makes it to the right person for consideration or response. A compilation of early communication with the program is available from the era of initial program development.

When submitting comments or questions , please adhere to the following format:

  • Identify yourself and affiliation.
  • Specify what issue area of the program your comment or question pertains to.
  • Clearly state your comment or question.
  • Provide any suggested resolution to the issue you have identified.
