USA - Maryland - Product Take-Back

On April 24, 2007, Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley signed into law HB 488, an act that expands the existing statewide computer recycling program to include certain video display devices. The recycling program previously only applied to “computers” which were defined to include all desktops, laptops and computer monitors sold in the state. However, HB 488 expanded the scope of the recycling program to cover all “covered electronic devices” (“CEDs”) which includes not only computers, but also “video display devices” with screens greater than 4 inches measured diagonally. The law, including the requirements for the expanded product scope, takes effect on October 1, 2007, with the registration and fees due on January 1, 2008.
