Illinois Compiled Statutes

Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    (Section scheduled to be repealed on December 31, 2026)
    Sec. 1-3. Findings; purpose.
    (a) The General Assembly finds all of the following:
        (1) Many older and obsolete consumer electronic
    
products contain materials which may pose environmental and health risks that should be managed.
        (2) Consumer electronic products contain metals,
    
plastics, glass, and other potentially valuable materials. The reuse and recycling of these materials can conserve natural resources and energy.
        (3) The recycling and reuse of the covered electronic
    
devices defined under this Act falls within the State of Illinois' interest in the proper management of such products.
        (4) Illinois counties and municipalities may face
    
significant cost burdens in collecting and processing obsolete electronic products for reuse and recycling.
        (5) Manufacturers of electronic products should share
    
responsibility for the proper management of obsolete consumer electronic products.
        (6) Illinois counties and municipalities, and the
    
citizens of Illinois, will benefit from the implementation of a program or programs for the proper management of obsolete consumer electronic products operated by manufacturers that are actively overseen by the State.
        (7) It is the intent of the State to allow
    
manufacturers to coordinate their activities and programs related to the proper management of obsolete covered electronic devices as defined under this Act under strict State supervision regardless of the effect the manufacturers' actions or such coordination will have on competition.
        (8) It is in the best interest of the State to
    
promote the coordination of manufacturer activities and programs related to the proper management of obsolete covered electronic devices through participation in a manufacturer clearinghouse as set forth in the Act.
    (b) The purpose of this Act is to further the interest of the State of Illinois in the proper management of obsolete consumer electronic products by setting forth procedures by which the recycling and processing for reuse of covered electronic devices will be accomplished by manufacturers for those counties and municipalities that wish to opt-in to electronic product manufacturer-run recycling and processing programs that are approved and overseen by the State of Illinois.

All registration fees collected by the Agency pursuant to this Section shall be deposited into the Solid Waste Management Fund.
    (a-5) The Agency may deny a registration under this Section if the recycler or any employee or officer of the recycler has a history of:
        (1) repeated violations of federal, State, or local
    
laws, regulations, standards, or ordinances related to the collection, recycling, or other management of CEDs;
        (2) conviction in this State or another state of any
    
crime which is a felony under the laws of this State, or conviction of a felony in a federal court; or conviction in this State or another state or federal court of any of the following crimes: forgery, official misconduct, bribery, perjury, or knowingly submitting false information under any environmental law, regulation, or permit term or condition; or
        (3) gross carelessness or incompetence in handling,
    
storing, processing, transporting, disposing, or otherwise managing CEDs.
    (b) The Agency shall post on the Agency's website a list of all registered recyclers.
    (c) Beginning in program year 2019, no person may act as a recycler of residential CEDs for a manufacturer's e-waste program unless the recycler is registered with the Agency as required under this Section.
    (d) Beginning in program year 2019, recyclers must, as a part of their annual registration, certify compliance with all of the following requirements:
        (1) Recyclers must comply with federal, State, and
    
local laws and regulations, including federal and State minimum wage laws, specifically relevant to the handling, processing, and recycling of residential CEDs and must have proper authorization by all appropriate governing authorities to perform the handling, processing, and recycling.
        (2) Recyclers must implement the appropriate measures
    
to safeguard occupational and environmental health and safety, through the following:
            (A) environmental health and safety training of
        
personnel, including training with regard to material and equipment handling, worker exposure, controlling releases, and safety and emergency procedures;
            (B) an up-to-date, written plan for the
        
identification and management of hazardous materials; and
            (C) an up-to-date, written plan for reporting and
        
responding to exceptional pollutant releases, including emergencies such as accidents, spills, fires, and explosions.
        (3) Recyclers must maintain (i) commercial general
    
liability insurance or the equivalent corporate guarantee for accidents and other emergencies with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate and (ii) pollution legal liability insurance with limits not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence for companies engaged solely in the dismantling activities and $5,000,000 per occurrence for companies engaged in recycling.
        (4) Recyclers must maintain on file documentation
    
that demonstrates the completion of an environmental health and safety audit completed and certified by a competent internal and external auditor annually. A competent auditor is an individual who, through professional training or work experience, is appropriately qualified to evaluate the environmental health and safety conditions, practices, and procedures of the facility. Documentation of auditors' qualifications must be available for inspection by Agency officials and third-party auditors.
        (5) Recyclers must maintain on file proof of workers'
    
compensation and employers' liability insurance.
        (6) Recyclers must provide adequate assurance, such
    
as bonds or corporate guarantees, to cover environmental and other costs of the closure of the recycler's facility, including cleanup of stockpiled equipment and materials.
        (7) Recyclers must apply due diligence principles to
    
the selection of facilities to which components and materials, such as plastics, metals, and circuit boards, from residential CEDs are sent for reuse and recycling.
        (8) Recyclers must establish a documented
    
environmental management system that is appropriate in level of detail and documentation to the scale and function of the facility, including documented regular self-audits or inspections of the recycler's environmental compliance at the facility.
        (9) Recyclers must use the appropriate equipment for
    
the proper processing of incoming materials as well as controlling environmental releases to the environment. The dismantling operations and storage of residential CED components that contain hazardous substances must be conducted indoors and over impervious floors. Storage areas must be adequate to hold all processed and unprocessed inventory. When heat is used to soften solder and when residential CED components are shredded, operations must be designed to control indoor and outdoor hazardous air emissions.
        (10) Recyclers must establish a system for
    
identifying and properly managing components, such as circuit boards, batteries, cathode-ray tubes, and mercury phosphor lamps, that are removed from residential CEDs during disassembly. Recyclers must properly manage all hazardous and other components requiring special handling from residential CEDs consistent with federal, State, and local laws and regulations. Recyclers must provide visible tracking, such as hazardous waste manifests or bills of lading, of hazardous components and materials from the facility to the destination facilities and documentation, such as contracts, stating how the destination facility processes the materials received. No recycler may send, either directly or through intermediaries, hazardous wastes to solid non-hazardous waste landfills or to non-hazardous waste incinerators for disposal or energy recovery. For the purpose of these guidelines, smelting of hazardous wastes to recover metals for reuse in conformance with all applicable laws and regulations is not considered disposal or energy recovery.
        (11) Recyclers must use a regularly implemented and
    
documented monitoring and record-keeping program that tracks total inbound residential CED material weights and total subsequent outbound weights to each destination, injury and illness rates, and compliance with applicable permit parameters including monitoring of effluents and emissions. Recyclers must maintain contracts or other documents, such as sales receipts, suitable to demonstrate: (i) the reasonable expectation that there is a downstream market or uses for designated electronics, which may include recycling or reclamation processes such as smelting to recover metals for reuse; and (ii) that any residuals from recycling or reclamation processes, or both, are properly handled and managed to maximize reuse and recycling of materials to the extent practical.
        (12) Recyclers must employ industry-accepted
    
procedures for the destruction or sanitization of data on hard drives and other data storage devices. Acceptable guidelines for the destruction or sanitization of data are contained in the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Guidelines for Media Sanitation or those guidelines certified by the National Association for Information Destruction.
        (13) No recycler may employ prison labor in any
    
operation related to the collection, transportation, and recycling of CEDs. No recycler may employ any third party that uses or subcontracts for the use of prison labor.
    (e) Each recycler shall, during each calendar year, transport from each site that the recycler uses to manage residential CEDs not less than 75% of the total weight of residential CEDs present at the site during the preceding calendar year. Each recycler shall maintain on-site records that demonstrate compliance with this requirement and shall make those records available to the Agency for inspection and copying.
    (f) Nothing in this Act shall prevent a person from acting as a recycler independently of a manufacturer e-waste program.

    "Population adjustment factor" means the percentage that results when (i) the population of Illinois, as reported in the most recent federal decennial census, is divided by (ii) the population of the United States, as reported in the most recent federal decennial census.
    "Return share" means the percentage, by weight, of each CED category that is returned to the program collection sites and one-day collection events operated by or on behalf of either a manufacturer clearinghouse or one or more of its participating manufacturers during the calendar year 2 years before the applicable program year, as reported to the Agency under Section 1-10 of this Act; except that, for program year 2019 and program year 2020, "return share" means the percentage, by weight, of each CED category that is estimated by the manufacturer clearinghouse to be returned to those sites and events during the applicable program year, as reported to the Agency under subsection (b) of this Section.
    "Unadjusted total proportional responsibility" means the percentage calculated for each participating manufacturer under subsection (e) of this Section.
    (b) By March 1, 2018, each manufacturer clearinghouse shall provide the Agency with a statement of the return share for each CED category for program year 2019, and by March 1, 2019, each manufacturer clearinghouse shall provide the Agency with a statement of the return share for each CED category for program year 2020.
    (c) If a manufacturer clearinghouse submits to the Agency a manufacturer e-waste program plan under Section 1-25 of this Act, then the manufacturer clearinghouse shall include in the plan a list of manufacturers that have agreed to participate in the manufacturer clearinghouse for the upcoming program year.
    (d) By November 1, 2018, and each November 1 thereafter, the Agency shall provide each manufacturer clearinghouse with a statement of the unadjusted total proportional responsibility and adjusted total proportional responsibility of each of its participating manufacturers for the upcoming program year.
    (e) For each program year, the Agency shall calculate the unadjusted total proportional responsibility of each participating manufacturer as follows:
        (1) For each CED category, the Agency shall multiply
    
(i) the participating manufacturer's market share for the CED category by (ii) the return share for the CED category, to arrive at the category-specific proportional responsibility of the participating manufacturer for the CED category.
        (2) The Agency shall then, for each participating
    
manufacturer, sum the category-specific proportional responsibilities of the participating manufacturer calculated under paragraph (1), to arrive at the participating manufacturer's unadjusted total proportional responsibility.
    (f) If the sum of all unadjusted total proportional responsibilities of a manufacturer clearinghouse's participating manufacturers for a program year accounts for less than 100% of the return share for that year, then the Agency shall divide the unallocated return share among participating manufacturers in proportion to their unadjusted total proportional responsibilities, to arrive at the adjusted total proportional responsibility for each participating manufacturer.
    (g) A manufacturer may use retail collection sites to satisfy some or all of the manufacturer's responsibilities, including, but not limited to, the manufacturer's transportation and recycling of collected residential CEDs pursuant to any allocation methodology established under this Act. Nothing in this Act shall prevent a manufacturer from using retail collection sites to satisfy any percentage of the manufacturer's total responsibilities, including, but not limited to, the manufacturer's transportation and recycling of collected residential CEDs pursuant to any allocation methodology established under this Act or by administrative rule.
