A 4234 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Requires the establishment of electronics and hazardous waste recycling programs in towns within Nassau and Suffolk counties

This bill requires all towns in Nassau and Suffolk counties to create a one-year pilot program for recycling electronics (like old phones and computers) and hazardous waste (such as batteries and chemicals). Each town must establish a public drop-off location for residents within 180 days of the bill taking effect and run the program for at least one year. Towns must also report to state leaders after two years, detailing how much waste was collected, how it was handled (recycled, disposed, or treated), and participation rates compared to the population. The program is temporary, set to expire three years after the bill becomes law.
