I would like to know more about the TX rule as well!

Regarding CA - unless things have changed, the ban applies only to video
display units. I believe it also regulates at the point of sale.

They way it is written essentially says if it is a video display device
which you can't sell in the EU, you can't sell in the CA either (after a
year).

If they are not selling it I don't believe it is regulated. 

I do not understand the focus on video display devices as most of the
lead in these is exempted. I believe the concern is the purported
mountain of ewaste will grow exponentially when they eliminate over the
air broadcasting and everyone needs to buy a new digital tv.  

I am not a lawyer and have the small bank account and true friends to
prove it!!

Denis,
        On another note, where are you finding info on Texas
legislation?
Other than proposals, I have seen nothing in firm development here....

Mike

Have you a take on what one may encounter in this scenario? I am trying
to
get some information from California. Seems that as always--the court
rulings will decide! Wish I were an attorney!

Chris,
        I would beg to differ. This is the 'Leadfree' forum, not the 'EU
RoHS Only' forum. Though originally driven by the foolishness initiated
by
the EU, the monster continues to grow on both sides of the pond.

        Here in the US, the federal government has stayed out of the
fray so
far. This leaves each state the creativity to write their own little
'RoHS
du jour', causing even further confusion and consternation on the part
of
manufacturers and suppliers.

        I would think that you would have interest in RoHS legislation
wherever it is being developed, as it will impact your organization in
marketing products over here....

This forum is really EU RoHS centric and moreover "RoHS" per se refers
to the EU directive (in most peoples minds).

It reads like you are questioning USA State legislation??

Regards,
Chris

I have been reviewing the details of the first couple of States RoHS
laws
(CA, TX).    The question has come up on our major accounts of whether
one
can redeploy used non-RoHS equipment from a store outside of one of the
states to inside after their RoHS laws take effect.

Specific example.  Could for instance a department stores take a
non-RoHS IT
unit that they have in, say, Arizona and move it to a CA store location?
