Manufacturer Buying/Selling Pounds/Credits
|
Yes
A manufacturer may generate electronic waste acceptance credits by accepting excess weight above its acceptance standard. No more than 25% of a manufacturer's acceptance standard for any program year may be met with credits generated in a prior program year. Credits may not be purchased or sold in the same program year they were generated. Credits expire 3 years after the program year in which they were generated. Credits purchased by a manufacturer in a program year must be applied to that year's acceptance standard, and may not be used to meet subsequent years' obligations. Manufacturers cannot sell purchased credits. The use of credits is allowed only when a manufacturer’s acceptance program has failed to collect sufficient weight to satisfy its acceptance standard.
