eCycling

Disposal of increasing amounts of electronics has been a concern of the Authority and its member jurisdictions.  In addition to using capacity in the disposal system and costing money for disposal, there has been an environmental concern for not recovering the materials and the long-term effects of materials that may enter the landfills. In order to mitigate these concerns, the Authority has been assisting its members with eCycling services since 2005.
