Beginning Jan. 24, 2013, a disposal ban on covered devices goes into effect in Pennsylvania.
Tuesday, December 11, 2012
From this point forward, no person may dispose of a covered device, or any of its components, with their municipal solid waste. These devices and their components must be properly recycled and may not be taken to, nor accepted by, landfills or other solid waste disposal facilities for disposal. However, non-hazardous residuals of covered devices that are produced during the recycling of those devices are excluded from the disposal ban. The effects of the disposal ban are outlined in the attached *.pdf document.
