California Electronic Waste Recycling Act Regulatory Workshop:
October 19, 2005
As the Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003  (SB 20 and SB 50, Sher) is implemented, workshops will be held to inform and receive input from affected stakeholders and other interested parties.

The California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) held a workshop for interested parties regarding proposed revisions to emergency regulations Wednesday, October 19, 2005 , from 9:00 a.m. until approximately 2:00 p.m. at the Cal/EPA Headquarters Building in Sacramento.

As provided in previous workshops, a general audio "webcast" was available. Web-based participants were able to submit comments via e-mail during the event through the ewaste@calepa.ca.gov address.

Participants were encouraged to bring their own copy of existing regulations and the proposed revisions for reference.

Details:
 Program staff presented proposed revisions to existing emergency regulations governing the Electronic Waste Recycling Act's covered electronic waste (CEW) recovery and recycling payment system at the CIWMB's October 4, 2005 Sustainability and Market Development Committee meeting. As a result of that meeting, program staff convened a workshop for stakeholders to further consider the proposed revisions. Staff will then return to the Committee and Board in November with program recommendations.

Background Documents and Links:

To maximize meaningful participation, stakeholders were encouraged to review applicable statutes and regulations, and to prepare specific comments prior to attending the meeting. To ensure that key issues are received, comments could be sent in advance to ewaste@calepa.ca.gov.

Note: Pertinent additional background materials may also be available at DTSC's SB 20 web site
