Pursuant to Section 22a-639(b) of the Connecticut General Statutes (“CGS”), the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (“DEEP”) presents its annual status report (“report”) on Connecticut’s state-wide electronics recycling program (“program”). This report is required to evaluate the effectiveness of the program, and to provide information about any federal electronics recycling law if such federal law substantially meets or exceeds the requirements of Connecticut’s program. The report finds Connecticut’s program is being successfully implemented, and that the federal government has not established a national program for the collection and recycling of electronic devices.
