14.2 Environmental Considerations

Electronics contain heavy metals as well as other components that are known to be hazardous. Consequently, electronic components that are not in commerce (i.e. a CPU being sold as a CPU) are subject to environmental disposal regulations. 

All electronic components that have been designated as scrap must be transferred to the an authorized disposal site for destruction. Under no circumstance should state entities dispose of electronic components as refuse (trash, landfills, etc.) or by any other means than a DOAS-contracted supplier.
