The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has announced the results of the second year of its computer collection and recycling program. The program requires computer manufacturers selling equipment in the state to offer free recycling for their equipment.
As part of the program, in 2010 manufacturers collected for reuse or recycling 24.3 million pounds of computer equipment, close to twice the amount collected last year.
Currently, 78 manufacturers representing 123 brands are participating in the program.
For more information on the program contact the TCEQ’s Pollution Prevention and Education section, (512) 239-3143.
