Recycling reduces the potential for future liability as most lighting waste is regulated by the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), the Superfund liability laws and the Universal Waste Rule. Requirements of regulations require that hazardous waste must be properly identified, stored, transported, treated and disposed of and that generators are financially responsible for cleaning up the effects of improper disposal.

The Universal Waste Rule is designed to promote and simplify the proper management and recycling of certain lighting wastes.

Much of today's lighting and electronic equipment contains hazardous materials such as mercury, lead or PCBs. Concerns over releases into the air and water are driving stricter disposal regulations.
