Electronic Recycling Legislation for Utah

The Utah Disposal of Electronic Waste Act (Senate Bill 184) requires manufacturers of consumer electronic devices (CEDs) to implement a public education program to inform consumers how to recycle legacy electronics responsibly.  The Utah electronics recycling legislation is unique from most other states in that it does not mandate recycling, or require that manufacturers of CEDs fund the recycling programs in the state. Manufacturers are required to report annually to the Utah Department of Environmental Quality.
