§ 7160. Other disposal programs
A municipality or other public agency may not require covered entities to use public
facilities to dispose of mercury-containing lamps to the exclusion of other lawful
programs available. A municipality and other public agencies are encouraged to work
with manufacturers to assist them in meeting their collection and disposal obligations
under this chapter. Nothing in this chapter prohibits or restricts the operation of
any program collecting and disposing of mercury-containing lamps in addition to those
provided by manufacturers or prohibits or restricts any persons from receiving, collecting,
transporting, or disposing of mercury-containing lamps, provided that all other applicable
laws are met. (Added 2011, No. 36, § 2, eff. May 19, 2011.)
