California AB48 & AB218 Bills

The "Electronic Waste Recycling Law" passed in 2003 stipulates that "specific electronic equipment" (electronic equipment with a display screen ≧4 inches measured diagonally) that does not comply with the four heavy metal contents in the EU RoHS directive is prohibited from being sold in the EU. It is also prohibited from being sold in California.

On December 4, 2006, California House of Representatives member Lori Saldana proposed the AB 48 bill to expand the scope of control of "specific electronic equipment" to consumer electronics products that are consistent with the EU RoHS directive. Including: equipment that must operate on current or electromagnetic field, or equipment that generates, converts, or measures current or electromagnetic field; equipment defined in Article 2 of the European Union 2002/96/EC (WEEE) directive; AC power less than 1,000 volts and DC power less than 1,500 volts Equipment; and equipment defined in Article 2.1 of the EU RoHS Directive.
The AB 48 bill stipulates that electronic devices that cannot be sold in the European Union are also prohibited from being sold in California. This bill passed the third reading of the House of Representatives on September 11, 2007, and passed Assembly Concurrence on September 12, 2007. However, on October 13, 2007, it was vetoed by the governor of California on the grounds that it would be difficult to implement and would bring bad results.

In early 2008, California House of Representatives Congressman Joe Simitian proposed AB218, a bill with similar restrictions as AB48. The new bill will be reviewed by the Senate Environmental Quality Committee in early April. The excluded equipment of AB218 is: fixedly installed electronic equipment installed in electronic systems or mechanical systems, and electronic equipment used in aviation. If passed, this bill will take effect on January 1, 2010.
