Wisconsin is now one of 18 states requiring recycling of consumer electronics, including computers, video monitors and printers.
Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle signed into law a bill requiring e-waste diversion from landfills. Under the law, manufacturers are required to arrange for recycling and disposal of consumer electronics.
Under the bill Doyle signed, dumping e-waste in landfills is banned.
