Code of Virginia - Title 10.1 Conservation - Section 10.1-1425.26 Cathode ray tube special waste recycling program

§ 10.1-1425.26. Cathode ray tube special waste recycling program

A. As used in this section "cathode ray tube" means an intact glass tube used to provide the visual display in televisions, computer monitors, oscilloscopes and similar scientific equipment, but does not include the other components of an electronic product containing a cathode ray tube even if the product and the cathode ray tube are disassembled.

B. The Board shall promulgate regulations to encourage cathode ray tube and electronics recycling.

C. Any locality may, by ordinance, prohibit the disposal of cathode ray tubes in any waste-to-energy or solid waste disposal facility within its jurisdiction, provided the locality has implemented a recycling program that is capable of handling all cathode ray tubes generated within its jurisdiction. However, no such ordinance shall contain any provision that penalizes anyone other than the initial generator of such cathode ray tubes.
