AI Summary

This bill would expand the definition of "covered electronic device" under the Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003 to include "covered battery-embedded products." Starting on January 1, 2026, consumers would be required to pay a "covered battery-embedded waste recycling fee" on the purchase of new or refurbished covered battery-embedded products. The bill would also require manufacturers to report on and label covered battery-embedded products, and prohibit the sale of non-compliant products. The bill would establish new subaccounts within the existing Electronic Waste Recovery and Recycling Account to fund the expanded program, and provide enforcement mechanisms and penalties for violations. The bill would make related changes to the hazardous waste control laws and local agency requirements.
