What is TCEQ Reporting?
- Definition
- TCEQ (Texas Commission on Environmental Quality) oversees electronic waste management in Texas and requires registered recyclers to report recycling volumes and downstream disposition.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) is the state agency responsible for environmental regulation in Texas, including oversight of electronic waste management. Electronics recyclers operating in Texas must comply with TCEQ regulations regarding the handling, storage, and processing of e-waste.
TCEQ requires registered electronics recyclers to maintain records of the types and quantities of electronics received and processed, track the downstream disposition of materials (where recycled materials go after processing), and report volumes on a regular basis. These requirements help ensure that e-waste is properly managed and doesn't end up in landfills or unauthorized export channels.
For businesses using an electronics recycler in Texas, working with a TCEQ-registered facility provides assurance that your e-waste is being handled in compliance with state environmental regulations. Ask your recycler about their TCEQ registration and reporting practices.
