Generally this imposes much less stringent requirements on storage, transportation, and record keeping than a full hazardous waste classification. However, there are major variations state-by-state in lamp disposal requirements. The preferred method of disposal in most states is recycling. Contact information for each State, where current requirements can be obtained, is available on www.lamprecycle.org . California has recently adopted Universal Waste Emergency Rules, which are governed by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control. The current status should be checked, since the emergency rules are expected to be replaced with a final ruling in the near future. 2001 Edition Errata Page 1 July 20, 2001 Page # Reference Comment or correction 3-17 3.2.3 Para (4): change second sentence to: "A coal fired power plant may contribute several hundred times* more atmospheric mercury due to the energy use of an average fluorescent lamp compared to the amount of mercury that may be emitted when the lamp is properly recycled at the end of life" 6-26 6.5.1 Para (2) add note regarding dimming fluorescents: (Programmable-start ballasts are also suitable for dimming applications) 6-57 6.7 Para (2) add new sentence: The newest generation of LEDs is packaged in what is called a surface mount device (SMD).
