It is regulatory for electronic equipment. I currently have a copy of the second draft of the "Proposal for a directive on waste from electrical and electronic equipment". Now I have done a fair amount of searching about this and located a number of pages to review on the Eur-Lex website. But I still am not sure what the impact is for my company. It appears that manufacturers will eventually be required to provide a free service for recycling their obsolete products. Does anyone know if and when this goes into force. And if this comes about what are the implications to manufacturers who import their products into the European Community. What is the appearance of this symbol described as a "crossed-out wheeled bin"? What notifications are required in user documentation? Is there a requirement to either provide or contract recycling centers? Thanks for any help, -doug ======================================= Douglas E.
